I had the problem of needing Facebook. I found I was checking it every few minutes, sometimes as often as twice a minute, so I decided that I was going to demonstrate some self-control: I closed my account.

You're absolutely right - after the first few days, I stopped thinking about checking it all the time. After a couple of months, I stopped thinking about it at all. A few years later, I don't even think about it most weeks. Every now and then, I do find myself thinking that I should open another account and that it will be different this time, but deep down I know it won't be.
