Let's look at it this way. Everyone has a vice one way or the other. Some are just more harmful than others.
People drink or do drugs for many reasons. They may have marital discord, are scared by what's going on in the world right now, feel depressed because they are alone or can't make a relationship work, have problems with their parents, think it makes them look 'cool' and fit in so they cave to pressure, or perhaps they just do it because they're not too bright. Many do it as a personal choice because it just makes them feel good for a while. Whatever their reason, they must keep in mind that for every thing they do there's a consequence that could come about from it. And that consequence may end up not only hurting them, but others as well.

Because all recreational drugs are based on natural neurotransmitters, but have stronger or longer lasting effects than their natural counterparts. This is why different people have different preferences as to what is their "drug of choice", because of the natural differences between people and the chemicals their bodies make. Plus, how much easier is it to just take something in order to achieve a desired state of mind than to wait for a "good day" to come around...

Because we're all bored and depressed, and drink or drugs is something which stops us introspecting so much. In fact, alcohol has been used practically since men could walk... sobriety is not fun all the time & sometimes we just need to loosen up (altho I advocate alcohol over drugs, bar cannabis, cuz it's much safer).

Because for most people, life generally sucks. It's a way to escape the problems of reality. When the buzz is over, the problems remain, if not worsen.

We dont need to take these things it just your choice!
If you feel you need them then there is a big thing in your life that you feel you are missing/ or missing out on! It's your decision and desire that makes you feel that way! Find what you trully want & you will no longer need them!

People use it to "escape" from their problems, but it is not really an escape. The problems reamin there, and will eventually keep worsening until the person deals with it.

We all don't need to do these unhealthy things. For those who choose to do these things, it's because they choose/want to.
