It's probably just very bad luck

I haven't either. wonder if it's a bug or an intentional change
Me either. I came back after playing on PS4 for years. I haven't seen telepills, or I'm Drowsy once. I think I read I'm Excited was removed (thank god), but if that information was wrong, I haven't seen those either.

All these pills are definitely still in Repentance, but depending on how often you play, it might not be particularly suprising that you haven't seen them in your runs. The pill rotation in each run is made of only 13 pills and there are 49 different pills total, not only that, but just because your rotation is made of 13 pills doesn't mean that you are necessarily going to find them all in your run. It's also noteworthy to consider the fact that pills are weighted by class and polarity in order to balance the pill rotation and avoid having too many good/bad pills in your run which may influence the frequency at which you encounter certain pills.

Obligatory reminder that the human brain doesn't really believe in randomness because believing in randomness got a bunch of its would-be ancestors eaten by lions. Less than half the pills in the game are even potentially capable of spawning in a given run, never mind actually finding them and being willing to use unidentified pills (you probably shouldn't do this).

Haven't seen telepills in 435 hours played also
They do not have an unlock and I get them all the time.

Obligatory reminder that randomness follows the rules of probability, and according to all open information of the wiki the probability of not finding the pill in over 400 hours as suggested above and considering each run to be an average of 40 minutes so 746 runs, would mean that given the full 46 pills with 13 being selected at random, the probability of not finding it over that many runs is about 1 in 10^100 a number which the human brain cannot even comprehend, taking classes into account of all dlc's with all pills unlocked (so 50 now), the probability of once more not encountering telepills results to around 1 in 3 million :).
