For me, having a hyperfixation is interacting desperately with the source material/content yet never being satisfied. I want to touch it with my own hands, work with it, mold it under my fingers and make something new. I want to hug the characters, talk to the characters, ask them how their day went and play videogames with them. With non-media things, I find myself looking endlessly for new information about them but eventually getting bored, drowning in entry-level explanations and introductions but struggling to find things that delve deeper. I carve a hole into my brain to keep the little facts and characters and joy, and slowly the hyperfixation becomes less of a fixation and more of one of the things that make me me. And when it's gone, when the ache of interacting but never truly knowing scraps away the last of my passion, I still have a place in my heart and memories saved for it.
