Christians With Drug Past?
Question by BrennaBoo: Christians with drug past?
I’m 15, and I’m a Christian. I’m also known as one of the biggest screw ups and druggies in my school, in my town. And trust me, I live in a big city. 4 different high schools. Everyone thinks that. half of the people I’m around don’t even know that I’m Christian or have a belief at all. I recently accidentally overdosed, I was just trying to get high, and not being proud of it, I’m glad it happened because if it didn’t I would’ve never been admitted into a treatment center. I don’t have the right motivation to stop partying or smoking or anything else I do, trust me it’d be a long list. I like the feelings that it gives me too much. But I also don’t want to do any of it. The power of liking it too much to quit is over ruling ther power I have to stop. In other words, I think I’m letting satan rule over me more than God. I need advice from Christians/restored christians that have a past with it or are still struggling with it. I don’t care if you’re 17 or 50. If you understand my position, please help.

Answer by ashicare4u
Many teenagers will have some experience with alcohol and other drugs. In fact, drug use among adolescents is much more common than parents realize. About one in six persons between the ages of 13 to 17 years old has used marijuana. Nearly two-thirds of all American young people try an illegal drug before they finish high school. Alcohol and nicotine (in cigarettes) are the most commonly used drugs by teenagers. Teenagers who smoke and drink during their early teens are the ones most likely to begin to use other illegal drugs later.
