Welcome. Many of us have changed and now live free after decades of acting out; so long as we maintain a program of recovery one day at a time. I look at myself as sick getting better and not evil getting good. 
Much Hatzlacha!

You change by working on a day. then another day. then another. Honestly, the fact that you have made it here to post shows something powerful by itself. it is an inspiration for me to see how you still are trying to grow and heal for the future, as opposed to viewing all the years of the past.

Good Question. Whatever we could try will already did. What WILL work?
I am an addict, so for me change started, when i started working the 12 steps with a sponsor. I am (only) 55 days sober today but life is settling and falling into place.

I have a very big network of friends i am in touch with. The fellowship is something you cannot imagine before you actually feel it.

Just don't give up there is light out there,

Welcome!
Someone just visited our SA group from abroad. He is in his upper 60s. He just started his recovery a couple of months ago.
There's plenty of hope for anyone as long as they're breathing. 
Keep posting.
Best of luck!!!!
