As long as the thinking produces results, I think that's a good thing. One thing I had to figure out during my treatment/mental unit stints was how to make sure that my desire to process through in a methodical fashion actually brings results. I do okay now, but there were many times when my logic didn't fit my emotions, so I did my best to avoid emotions. Drinking was one method. Being a jackwagon to others by pointing out their flaws to validate my own behavior was another.
I need to stay vigilant of that. If I need external validation, I better tread VERY lightly.
