Unless I'm engaging in conversation - I have this affliction 100% of the time now. And have done for a year or two now, and it's gotten progressively more obsessive. Now it seems to have reached an obsessive plateau.
As the the point on overanalysis. I think there is no such thing because you can't stop thinking. It's impossible, without dying. I think you can't analyse too much - only badly. So long as your analysis is constructive and productive, so long as it does more good than bad - then it's worth it. I say ideally the trick is getting it as close to perfect as possible. And whether you wish to engage in that quest.
