title: Drug use as a lifestyle in the 1980s.
abstract: Trends in use of alcohol, marijuana, stimulants, sleeping pills and tranquillizers are examined from a recent report of a household survey in Ontario. Alcohol and marijuana use seems to be leveling off since the previous survey in 1977, although episodes of problem drinking are increasing and daily marijuana use is now more frequent. There has been a significant decrease in the use of sleeping pills and tranquillizers by women and those over age 50.
