This sounds a lot like my desire to be connected to facebook and having it run in the background like some admin task. I thought how rude it would be to remain disconnected or to not finish having that random conversation with my friend I haven't spoken with in quite some time. Then I remind myself that my bills need to be paid, I have two cats and an elderly parent to take care of, and there is always the option of catching up for an hour over skype or the phone. I literally got myself to the point where I can take five full days away from the app and not feel bad at all about it. My friends, colleagues, clients, and family all know how to contact me and I can continue being more productive with my time. It always helps to surround yourself with people who understand you and the changes you're looking to make. If you find it hard to disconnect yourself, cut off your wifi services for a time until you readjust yourself. I did and it's going really well.
