I’ve no desire to be social anymore and lack libido
I’ve been grinding a lot lately so been just crashing at home with 1/2 hours before bed
I’m going no fap, unplugging my pc etc
I seem to be addicted to politics on X
I don’t post but I constantly read shit
Millions of people on that app seem to have their shit together
But I feel with me it’s giving me something to do that isn’t getting out there and exploring
Would you delete it? Don’t need it right?
Lastly is there anything else you could suggest that’s hacking me to make me like this?

well, if you are addicted to politics, that's worse than porn.
Damn dude, politics and news is like the most depressing thing to hear, no wonder why you have no energy.
Get off social media, get outside, get some hobbies that you like or interested in. Have some fun
If you make that kind of money, Kudo's to you.
But an interesting, enjoyable life is not about how much money you have.

The point of me writing this post is for you to say this to me so I appreciate that
I’ve gone on this crusade to get rich, the sacrifices you have to make get financially free and stop being a slave are huge and I think that’s where the short term rewarded stuff creeps in regarding politics, debate reading etc
I do disagree with you regarding the money fiasco though, you need capital to get free and become the best version of yourself, I just think i got lost on the way so deleting all non beneficial social media now

the saying "everything in moderation"
yes, having money is freedom, but at some point, at the expense of what?
I know guys who were in Investment banking, spent a decade or more just buried in work. they made a lot of cash.
most of them stopped in their 30's, burned out and most are not what you would consider, happy. I know one who stepped out of that and he's enjoying life, or seems to be. Getting girls now (of course), and I warn them, of those risks, don't lose "your" money, it's not hers.

use social media purely for what you have to gain from it, increasing your status and meaningful networking and just quit doom scrolling useless shit.
other use of online time should be gathering info about things you are actively doing if you think you have a solid plan or things you plan to engage in/try REALLY SOON, not some time in the unknown future, just reading and reading about things you are not doing at every opportunity/not relevant to your lifestyle is one of the best ways to waste your time.
Whats causing you to be like this is not properly acknowledging how fast time moves and not wanting the things you want hard enough or not knowing what you really want.
Your lack of desire is causing your lack of libido, but you shouldn't really be trying to chase a feeling of high libido, you should just trust that it will kick start when you actually need it, and if needed, force yourself into doing what you know you should or want to want to do.
I understand that you don't want to do it (whatever it is thats troublig you) but thats the thing even science is starting to explain now - the best thing is STARTING and then the desire will come, its first action and then desire but most people don't understand that and have it backwards from reality.
But don't take this as "tunnel vision on the grind harder to be able to live in the future".
Instead, you do everything that you know you should be doing and NOT doing the things you know you shouldn't be doing, so you DON'T have anxiety about it. If you know that you are doing everything thats asked of you, then you will no longer have anxiety over this (cuz if you really did only the right things why would you have anxiety anymore?).
And then you will have the mental bandwidth to open yourself up to all the opportunities to LIVE around you, to let the universe's energies flow through you. You can be on the grind but still take and make time for the opportunities to live that DO present themselves.
I spent all this time writing all this up to also remind myself of this.

First 2 paragraphs is gold.
Use the social media, don't let it use you.
