That's a nice problem to have.

Speaking from personal experience, addictions (of the LD variety) can go one of two ways.

1. Your waking life crumbles and you wake up one day realizing how disconnected you are from everyone and everything.

or

2. You decide to apply things you've learned or experienced in dreams, to waking life.

OH!!! One more.

3. You go insane. Although this could tie into number 1.

You could do things to alter your sleep patterns... but then that doesn't get at the root of the issue does it? It's just a pacifier. What you should do, if you don't wish to spend the rest of your life asleep, is to figure out what's keeping you anchored in the dream state and address it in waking life.

Now you have choices. You can choose your method to satisfy your end goal.

Good luck with that.
