Not saying it is your situation, but we often rationalize addictions and justify having them - often with some sort of utility. When I was a young smoker, I told myself smoking allows me to get laid as I would talk up to women in bars and clubs in the (calmer) smoking areas and it was easier to hit on them and get their numbers. While true, the negative impact of smoking in general does not outweigh that. And if I wouldn't have smoked, I could have just as well hit on women on the streets or in the noisy club. Just as you can get laid without social media.
