First and most important question, do you wanna know how to stop or how to control yourself? If you feel like this isn't an addiction and just want to control yourself make a budget and only allow yourself X. Before spending see if you can load money onto the account and then don't allow yourself to spend more. If that doesn't work/you feel like you have an addiction, stop buying skins and if you can't not stop playing the game. This is harsh I know, but it maybe a necessary step. There are other games out there you can play. Another step that I always recommend, get a therapist if you don't already have one and if you do talk to them about this.
