I believe that real conversion ENABLES you to solve these issues with God's help. Why turn to God if you can solve everything yourself?

People can sometimes try to escape from their lives into religiosity. I think that at that point, both their lives and their religiosity suffer the worse for it.

People can ABUSE anything... religion, drugs, sex. That doesn't make them wrong.

James 1: 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Hi NetDoc, I don't think that we can solve everything by ourselves. But I do think that ultimate responsiblity for ourselves belongs to each of us. As the saying goes, God helps those who help themselves.

But could the issues described by yourself not be solved by friend or family? Well not solved, but given help on?

That is a non-Biblical saying.

Absolutely! That is one of main points of being a Christian. Helping others ... not just yourself.

lol! That too, NetDoc. I just mean that we aren't supposed to just sit around waiting for God's help. It's like that joke about the guy in the flood waiting to be rescued by God. You know the one, right?
