I've been there myself... It's exciting and offers an immediate satisfaction unlike anything else... But the only thing you can do is stop applying and let time take its course!
 
Good Luck!

Opt out of those mail offers. That's what I did. And slap yourself a couple of times to remind yourself how much you don't need these cards. Smiley Happy

That's all.

Nearly as bad as the urge to get new Credit Cards is the urge to buy yet another FICO score........   Smiley Very Happy

I think I am going to have to add a 13th step to the program about limiting the number of CCs   Smiley Very Happy
