Yes, it;s an addiction. To get rid of addiction, the standard and most successful method is stop it abruptly. You will have difficulty to sleep. So take a brisk walk for 20 min or a hot water bath to induce sleep. Within a week, you will get de-addicted. Alternately, you can reduce the amount day by day. But it's not very effective method.
