Head case thing? I'd have to go with over half, probably close to 70-80%.
Place an ad, do a model recruitment drive locally, and you won't believe the headcases that crawl out the woodwork.

Well...I have never shot any models...but as a young soldier I had rather extensive experience with strippers...and all of the strippers I knew were into substance abuse and all of the rest...with the exception of one...were head cases. The one exception...became my first wife and the marriage lasted until I returned from my first deployment...while married to her...only to learn of her activities while I was deployed.
I am surprised that...in your experience...only 25-30% had a substance abuse problem and a little surprised about the 70-80% headcases. My guess would have been about 80% substance abuse and 99% headcases.
