I know it is you and you are having fun in a way. Trust me - I know. Because I have done it myself too.
But there are lots of different meanings to having fun - you can have fun in good ways (productive to yourself and others) and not so productive to yourself and others.What I keep thinking is that the way you are having this fun is not productive to you in the long run. I have enjoyed this making connections and intrusive thinking and trying to analyze things before myself, and thought it seemed fun at that time, in a long run it made me aloof, not happy, not social, not real worldish. I would always live in my own private dream land. And guess what, I didn't make real friends and my real life relationships were getting affected because of that. Plus I also ended up getting depressed, negative, aloof and loner, and blaming other people all the time, and my body suffered as well - got all these chronic diseases etc.
That is what I am trying to prevent for you. This kind of intense rumination and stuff might be pleasing to your brain, but your body won't be able to handle the stress.
