Probably because it feels good.

Sometimes the simple answers are the most likely. Even if you have a great life, it’s tempting to have such experiences.

Sure, a lot of people use it as an escape though. But I imagine my dumbass brother in law died because he was trying to have fun, not check out of life. Miss him.

This is the dirty little secret of 1980’s-style approach to keeping people off drugs: they feel great.

The old (current?) approach suffers from intellectual dishonesty of ignoring the physical pleasure.
