But the answer may not lie in promoting severance from alcohol/facebook.
Like Elrant, I believe there should be a middle ground people try to reach. Not everyone may be able to reach it by themselves but education should be put before a more extreme solution such as cutting people from alcohol/facebook in my opinion. It is not efficient to tell a alcoholic to drink less but it is efficient to educate people around you about the dangers alcohol can pause.
Because social media apps are designed to access the same neural pathways as addictive substances. Let me rephrase your question: "why can't you just have a moderate use of alcohol?" Sure, many people can (and note how that's not newsworthy), but try suggesting to an alcoholic to just drink a little less.
