Yes, yes and yes. I am having much trouble turning off the analyzing, but I have always had an interest in psychology and human behavior even before therapy. And the dynamics of relationships have always been fascinating to me. I like helping people. I think I get some kind of charge out of deep thinking and philosophizing. I probably would have loved being a therapist. The only problem with that being that I suck at being verbal. I tend to think that might have been detrimental. I can definitely relate to what you are saying. My brain is always running now.
