That's a surprisingly moralist take coming from someone who seems to have read and like Nietzsche (unless your pseudonym come from another Zarathustra). Whether you read him as a nihilist (some people do), post-nihilist or as a proto-existentialist, i don't see how you can see it as worse (a nihilist and post-nihilist wouldn't do such value judgement, and an existentialist wouldn't judge on how you live, but on what you do, and taking drugs to be in better shape isn't worse or better than powering through it with your own will.)
