Anyway, not to be cruel about it, but this sounds a lot like, "I used to be hooked on drugs, but now i'm hooked on Jesus." In time, you may recover from this unhealthy dependency as well.
Hey, no I am in my late 30s now. As far as drugs are concerned, when I converted to Christianity I was only smoking marijuana and cigarattes, which I gave up shortly after. It was during my journey with God towards the Christian faith that I fell into some particularly bad vices, but I was delivered of those before I gave my life to Jesus. The difference now is, I wouldn't go back to them for any reason; I feel like I've been set free. Before I came to my Christian faith I was still vulnerable to falling back into those vices. That addictive part of my personality is mostly dead now, although I still have some of those tendancies; such as using the internet too much.
If prayers got no results, no one would bother. RIGHT ON!
