Nah, it'll pass. And I know exactly WHEN it will pass. It will pass when:
...you have a stockpile of materials that you are accustomed to working on and when you have enough to tie the flies you need.
...you have the necessary tools to easily and conveniently tie the flies you need.
...you have tried all the funky and interesting materials, tools, books, etc., you see online or in the fly shop. You will sort out the things that are really useful and what is merely faddish or excessive, and you have narrowed your commonly used materials and tools to the ones you really need and use.
...you have learned most of the basic techniques and can easily tie the flies you need for an upcoming excursion.
..the novelty has worn away from this new hobby, and it's more like fishing itself (you still look forward to and enjoy it, but you're not so ga-ga about it).
Once those conditions have been met, your life will go back to more-or-less normal, and you'll just be fly tier. You might still be obsessed, but the obsession will "settle down" somewhat so you can do the other things in life that give us enjoyment -- like eat, sleep, go to the toilet, etc.
