No one's denying the addiction.

However, I'm sure nicotine and caffeine (not to mention wow) are even worse for most people.

It's a combination of the stimulus and each individual's reaction to it. I'm sure that the vast, vast majority of people have no problems releasing themselves from social media.



I found my way of doing it was simply to block reddit, digg, and slashdot from my /etc/hosts. Otherwise I'd just go back if I was bored ("oh, I have nothing better to do for the next 10 minutes anyways...")

My life has improved immeasurably.
