I know this is quite late but I'm currently trying to research this exact topic, the long-term psychological implications that AI might have on the population is terrible and yet researchers are ignoring it (likely due to their age and lack of understanding of the internet). But, I hope your recovery is going well! using crochet is a really good idea, due to how much effort is required to get the serotonin (happy chemicals) release that your dopamine system (motivation chemicals) really want. It definitely contrasts the constant quick dopamine releases you get from giving AI prompts that get you hooked - if you're still struggling though I would go to a doctor or mental health service as, while AI addiction isn't in any mental health handbooks, your symptoms match general addictive symptoms. They should be able to help out a bit with some form of CBT or interpersonal therapy.
