It's so good to hear that that helped and you are feeling better now, vj!

The situation you had going on is very relatable for me currently. Mostly smaller waves (though with spikes of extremes) that I'm trying to convince myself are normal, but knowing deep down that they aren't. (There is one major clue for starters that gnaws. Plus a few times of considering hospital or right away appointment, only to be pretty ok later. That's not my usual and I don't want to make a fuss, so am kind of writing it off. I want so badly to not go into an episode that I'm determined to convince that cannot be that. Like you say, trying to turn a blind eye.)

So, thanks for sharing. It might just be the thing that gets me to make an appointment.
