I think it depends on the drug a lot of the time. Party drugs tend to attract self centred people, and I think part of drug addiction is that the addict becomes very selfish, or at least is seen to be by their nearest and dearest. But you're right, everyone is different and you can't just tar people with the same brush - the reason why a homeless person takes drugs is almost certainly completely different from why the child of a rich socialite takes drugs.
