Realism solves things.

I've read about the spiral where people want more and more and get less and less out of it.

But I know things that will motivate me now that are not extreme by any means.

The time to answer how I shall stop going down that spiral would be later. But even so, I believe I could handle it, most of it by including in my life areas like volunteering, close friendships, giving. In addition to things for myself. I feel both of these are needed. I feel it is only when the balance is out - usually not enough pleasure from giving - that people turn to more and more of one particular pleasure and it becomes an excess.
