Avoid meandering analysis through neurosis. Instead: (1) choose a framework of values with which to analyse your work and optimize towards; (2) create limits to your analysis; and (3) reflect on your application of/and the framework occasionally. However, it could be that this isn't the ideal solution for you. Follow your nature! If you are getting 'cabin fever' then take that as an opportunity to take a break and speak to other people. Often people are more productive when they stay fresh and remove their burdens instead of trying to 'push through'.
