I'm not a fan of drugs either[1]. I've never smoked or taken an illegal drug, and I drink comparatively rarely.
The thing is, prohibiting things just makes them seem cooler. For example, 80% of new smokers start before the age of eighteen. Few people would sign up to an expensive habit that smells foul and gives you cancer if not for the lure of the forbidden.
[1] Although to be fair, I'm even less of a fan of governments telling people what they can and can't do in the privacy of their own homes.
