I've stopped the drugs, I won't be able to stop the girlfriend part, I love her too much. And I will always be pro gay rights.

You're not a perfect Muslim, but you're still a Muslim. You need to make some changes in your life, which I think you already know. You do have a lot of weaknesses, yes, you are sinning, and you may not be knowledgable enough about your religion, but putting Allah first, learning, and taking it day by day will make everything else fall into place and will absolutely improve your life. You don't cease being Allah's servant just because you sin, so serve
Him (not your inner demons) until you can look at your current situation and know that you've overcome it.
