For me at least it can become an obsession, but I'm that way with just about everything that holds interest for me.

When it all becomes a bit too much I try and step away from whatever is causing me to obsess. In the case of GL I stop posting or looking at pictures or chatting. After a while things return to a relative normalcy and I can start dreaming again...

Probably not the healthiest way to deal with it but it works for me.
