Really. I mean I already got one :(
Just stopping using social media doesn't work as me.
What kind of a drug it must be to get over it?

If I am recording well, there is a buddhist sutra about addictions, vices in the case. Try to read. Oh, no, no way. Earlier I read the Eastern literature, but now I'm afraid of doing it. For a Christian it's better to read Christian literature. Schopenhauer read Buddhism and became an atheist, Nietzsche read Zaraostrists literature and became an atheist, Heidegger read Zen Buddhism and became an atheist. |

Maybe Saint Thomas Aquinas wrote anything about vices? I read a little about virtues on him, but there are some Saint Theresa diaries which is quite interesting. |

The Theresa's diaries are interesting, but I'd say that along with it they are quite... weird. Her adore of Christ goes too far. |

I don't have read the book, only the first part, but I remember Plotinus speaks about vices in the Enneads. It's a neoplatonic writer, and not so much formalized. |

The Book of Five Rings can be helpful. I have no kind of serious addiction, but I am trying to be a little more chaste in my personal life. For practical reasons.
You can read some military book about discipline, how to discipline yourself in addictions by analogy to your problem.
