More at high. The sense "drug addict" derives from addicts lying on their hips while using certain drugs such as opium.

Etymology 3

Unknown or disputed. Probably a variant of hep; both forms are attested from the first decade of the 20th century.[1] Some sources suggest derivation from Wolof hepi (“to see”) or hipi (“to open one’s eyes”).[2] Others suggest connection to the noun, as opium smokers were said to lie on a hip.[3] Neither of these suggestions is widely accepted, however.[1]
