Just because you think he had a dream life doesn't mean he did. For all you know, he was miserable. I got a lucrative job right out of college and by all accounts, I had 'succeeded' but I hated my corporate-based overly-stressed life and wound up drinking excessively almost every night just to numb the pain because I didn't see a way out. If I'd quit that job, I'd have disappointed my family, all of whom reminded me constantly how proud they were of my so-called success. And yes, it's possible to be in horrible mental and emotional pain when by all accounts everyone thinks you have a dream life.

I was lucky in that I got myself together before the drinking killed me or did any permanent damage. But that time in my life taught me to have nothing but sympathy for people who use drugs or alcohol, for whatever reason. And I believe that for most, it's about getting rid of pain or loss or whatever's eating at you. The drugs gave him something his life didn't. Because believe me, drinking or using drugs is not the happy-fun-time so many judgmental, self-righteous finger-waggers seem to think it is. It's hard and it's miserable and it's lonely. It's a hard life to have and it's an even harder one to change. And the people in that situation no more 'deserve it' because they started taking the drug than someone who has unsafe sex and gets AIDS as a result deserves that. People do the best they can with what they have and no one's perfect. They and their families deserve help and sympathy, not smug 'well, you should have know better' sneering. And unfortunately, there's a ton of the latter, but not much of the former.

It's sad what happened and I hope he's happy wherever he is.
