Irresponsibility and malice cause harm. There are many actions an individual could take that may harm people close to them. That's life, but the actions themselves aren't the issue. There's nothing inherent to drug usage that is harmful to others, unlike say, violence. In egregious instances of drug use where there is harmful effects like mistreating children, there are already laws to cover those. Those laws, again, are intended to address irresponsibility or malicious intent. If a single person with no children decides to do drugs every now and then, but otherwise lives a normal life, what harm as been done? Heck, even if that person is married and has children, what harm as been done? Drug use itself isn't directly harmful to others.
