Advanced warfare obsession

I am really loving the new Call of Duty Advanced Warfare and I can't put it down. But I have an unhealthy relationship with the "create a class" feature. I have a very hard time trying to decide what guns, attachments, perks, killstreaks, exo abilities etc to use. It's not that I don't know how to create an effective loadout, it's just that I'm forever analysing my loadouts and thinking about them EXTREMELY hard. Even when I'm not playing the game, I'm trying to imagine really effective loadouts and even lose sleep over it because it is overtaking my mind and using what seems like the entirety of my mental energy.

What I think disturbs me is the seemingly limitless combinations of each weapon, ability, wildcards, perks and killstreaks, and I'm always asking myself, can I make one more cool and creative?

For example, if I chose a long-ranged assault rifle (like the AR160X) for my primary, it would be logical to choose a short-ranged weapon for my secondary (like the PDW or an SMG or a shotgun) for versatility. But it doesn't stop there with me, oh no. If I chose a perfectly viable secondary, I then question if it "suits" my primary in a stylish way and spend ages going through all the primaries and secondaries to find a secondary most suitable in terms of aesthetics and effectiveness.

Bottom line, I feel that I'm putting way to much thought into my loadouts to the point where I'm losing sleep and thinking about nothing else. Perhaps this is normal, I don't know, but that's why I'm here to ask, IIN??

Any help will be very much appreciated.

    Try imagining you are commanding a squadron of drone pilots at Nellis Air Force Base. How does your team neutralize threats, maximize tactical effectiveness, and get Intel to the right people? Stealthy precision drone operations help keep force multipliers against enemy forces in favor of the high command. A military mind like yours can ensure victory.

      Wow! Really? I really wasn't expecting anyone to relate to this, I really thought I might have been alone on this one! You're totally right, I admit I think it is consuming me a little, I just can't seem to stay off this game though it's so fun!
