Many behavioral "experts" and online sources will strive to maintain their own ties and endorsements with social media by providing an "easy way out" and recommend limiting screen time as a means to eliminating addiction. "Delete Me" will challenge you and posits how the best means to quit and stay off a deadly substance is to abstain from the usage of that substance (social media) all together.
