"Yes, there are people who experience obsessive hyperfixation on a person or thing that takes up their whole brain and is all they talk about. They express wanting to stop but finding it difficult to do so. This can be associated with conditions like ADHD. Some individuals also describe a love-hate relationship with hyperfixation, where they enjoy focusing on something they like, but feel weird or empty when they're done hyperfixating and struggle to focus on anything else."
