Yes; cocaine had risen largely in popularity during the 80’s, and seeing as this season is set in ‘84, its especially full of drug usage. Including; but not limited to; marijuana and cocaine.

In E01, a guard looks through the opening in the cell door, that's when he sees him. --- A bit later in E01, in the infirmary, it looks as if a body has been attached to a door by the neck. --- In E03, there's a very brief flashback to the hanging scene.

It's one of the main topics if "evil urges" are innate, incurable etc. It's left unclear who is mentally ill and who isn't, but the whole topic definitely plays a big role in this season.
