I suggest that you can try playing daily chess,in daily chess you need not be be online always you can try 1 move per day and you can play multiple games at a time try joining some daily chess tournaments they are a lot of fun and good point is that daily chess will not affect your work 
whenever you get time in a day you can come online to make your move and if you are addicted to blitz or bullet try doing some puzzle rush sessions they are a lot of fun and you will not get frustrated by doing puzzle rush gl

If you genuinely want to stop and can't, your condition is called addiction. There are proven treatments for addiction. However faced with the prospect of accepting that you are addicted and seeking help or finding the willpower to stop, you may well choose the latter.
I was perfectly happy and i used to "know:" chess. As a person i am decently successful - trophy wife and angel kids, cushy nice job and good salary. I always wanted to do so many things , and then i again discovered chess - some old passion ignited.. and i started playing online. and now even when i have real dead line , real work to do , i cant stop but play this bs game .. and worst news is I am not even good at it. If I win multiple games , i dont want to stop - if i lose some games in a row , i want to win ,y points back. Back in the days I used to play video games, i know a thing or two about how people get sucked in to that , but i was never one of that. s I thought its just for pleasure .. but when I simply cant improve , and get beaten by 800-900 rated players I feel so bad, i want to do better.. but at core I am still 1100 online rated player . seriously How the heck I am going to stop. get my concentration back to work and life to . Any chance ( free time or not) I am getting , I am playing games. bullet - sort games .. and I don't feel good and I am still laying. Please give some advice, at this point , i think it requires more than just will power - which is shit anyways.
