The best advice for Alicia would be to regulate the amount of time she spends on the Internet. Cutting off Internet completely or seeking a psychologist may not be necessary at this point. By limiting her time online, Alicia can have more time to spend with her family and friends, and engage in activities that make her happy. Gradually decreasing online time and setting specific times for social media activities can be a good starting point in overcoming her addiction.
