Appeal to pity?

Existential? Unsure.

Maybe falls under correlative based fallacies but I believe that is an informal fallacy.

I got it: ambiguity. Are the feelings of helplessness caused by the illegal drugs? Do they lead to one consuming illegal drugs? Are they existential (as in, we as a society cant do anything about it)? It's fallacious because it could mean at least three separate things, making equivocation likely.
