When did you get hit by "the tetris effect" AKA playing a video game so much that you get the urge to do moves/actions from the video game in real life?
When I got hooked on Morrowind in middle school it occurred to me to quicksave before a test at school.
For me it was Monster Hunter World. I'd be lying in bed and on my head I was just going through the motions of fighting a monster, complete with the button combinations and all.
Bonus: when I started learning programming I was at an after Party at a friend's place after a night out and was on a few things and when I closed my eyes I would see lines of code and functions etc.
I then went to the toilet after partaking in some ketamin, and I tried to solve/debug the function in my head to release urine from my bladder. Fun times!

When I'm in the middle of solving a tough engineering problem, I'll wake up in the middle of the night in these kinds of stupors. I can't fall asleep because I need to solve some non-existent problem...eventually I wake up just enough to convince myself the problem isn't real and go back to sleep. It's the worst.
