Fran and many of the other patients at the asylum are victims of severe medical abuse. One of the patients is also a victim of sexual abuse, although this is only stated, not shown.

Not really, but we find out late in the game that Clara and Mia (the conjoined twins from the alternate reality) were actually real girls who suffered horrific medical abuse. When Fran meets them in the alternate reality, they can be quite cruel to her.

Alchohol isn't abused. There is one occasion that I recall where an npc is drunk, but it's not abuse. The game does revolve around heavy substance abuse, but it's pills, not alchohol.
