I believe it is a way to deal with anxiety and stress. I would see a therapist and work on joining the real world and making real friends and getting on with life instead of spending so much of my time in my head. It is a very dangerous habit (I had it for 10-15 years); habits only get stronger the more they are engaged in, become that much harder to break as time goes by.
