Can you have fun just thinking all day?

Is it normal for you to have fun just sitting there and think all day? Like I can always go to the movies with my friends, watch TV, chat, play games, etc, etc. But there's been days where all I've literally done is aimlessly wander around my house thinking for hours at a time, if not all day. I think about everything from daydreaming to philosophies about the world to new sciences. I sometimes listen to music whenever I think as well, and I sometimes get so focused into what I'm thinking about that I start to get dizzy or feel exhilarated. Is this normal?

    I'm the same, you are quite normal.
    But I on the other hand, have an even worse case of thinking. I over think things. I ponder everything from bathroom objects to human anatomy. I cant stop sometimes, and my thoughts can last for hours and sometimes weeks. I could be stuck on a single thought for a long time.
    The only cure is to go out and experience the things rather than think about them ;D

    OMG Someone is like me, thank you, I do the same thing, I cancel going out with friends because I'd rather just stay home and think, I have an overactive imagination makes it hard to sleep at night cuz I can't shut my brain off

    Haha, totally normal. It only becomes weird if you don't do other things and don't have contact with other people. But you do so its ok!

    Been there! INTP por vida! The good thing about thinking is that it is so limitless. Something like a movie is so shallow and railroaded into your senses. Thoughts are so much more free and specific and all-encompassing at the same time. There is nothing better.

    I used to do this as a kid. Mostly a waste of time. The world of the mind isn't real, and a lot of the stuff you think about ends up being completely wrong anyway. Go interact with people or start a hobby or something.

    Hi-five cause i do that to, do you think its weird, its not, sitting and thinking is normal in some cultures but not american culture because there is a need to be productive and moving around. but no matter just go a head and think. if time is money, thinking is a pretty good investment.

    I think you are totally normal. You are very lucky! You can think all day and be very happy with it. I think very deeply all the time but unfortunately for me it leaves me in a bad place a lot of the time- if only I could harness it I could be very productive like you!

    Me too. When I was a kid I did this excessively. I once spent the entire day sitting in the middle of my room thinking, and after a few hours I started feeling really dizzy but kept going till I eventually blacked out. It was really weird. Now I make sure to avoid going that far, but I think all the time, even if I'm doing something else I will continue to let my thoughts wander down their chosen path to its conclusion.
    I think it's normal though, just don't devote all your energy to thinking for too long.
    Sometimes going to the park to think is a good way to do it.

    i think its very normal! your imagination can be so much more fun and it can encourage u to do things u wouldnt normally do in real life.

    u never kno where these thoughts could take you...

    Dude if you can think all day long you should write it down. Do you know how much money you could get for short storys. Aesop made a mint, tho dead i must admit, dude must of smoked some stong shit to come up with his storys. Look at the bible, a group of people triping on asid and wamm God excists.

    I'm the same. I find it hard to sleep at night because my thoughts keep racing through my head. I also have a vivid imagination and I've often thought how cool it would be if I could live in my own thoughts and daydreams.

      Omg me too. I have vivid imagination and I wish I can live it. I feel it is normal to just daydream all day. I thought I was the only one it happens to but I guess its not. So it must be normal.
