You only need willpower not to do something that you actually want to do. If you don’t want to do something, it doesn’t take willpower not to do it. The difficulty that many experience is because even though they want to quit drugs, they still want to keep taking them. They want to keep doing it because they believe that it gives them some kind of pleasure or crutch.
