controlled environment 

a place or area where rules, regulations and behavioral norms are subject to strict enforcement or scrutiny. A person responsible for maintaining order in a controlled environment will normally strive to appear consistent when out in the open, but may enforce rules arbitrarily behind closed doors.

Kids who grow up in excessively controlled environments often fall behind in college, having all that freedom to cut loose but not knowing how to manage it.

controlled environment

An environment where you are intoxicated where you are able to “control” how hard the drug hits you, and you are in a more safe position than an uncontrolled, out-of-hand environment.

“Hey, you need to put that stuff down”
“Its alright, I only take controlled substances in controlled environments”
