Repentance

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
2 Corinthians 7:10 KJV

Sincere repentance leads to salvation. To repent is to completely change one's attitude and to stop doing that we used to do. If you're addicted and you repent of it then you have to overcome the addiction.

Sorrow of the world leads to death because it's halfhearted and it's mere pretence. Pretending to have turned but still indulged in it is not repentance. In the case of whatever addiction, you may experience withdrawal symptoms or relapse but your desire to walk away must be genuine to be totally free.
