Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You understood the symptom correctly. Such things happen with so many people. As you correctly identified, it is just over whelming workaholism. After a prolonged period of uninterrupted working in front of the computer terminal, mind becomes used to the atmosphere and detached from the real world. Naturally detachment takes time to get attached. Understanding sentences - you noticed because, you were reading. Anything such may happen for a few moments. But there is nothing to worry.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
