I know exactly what you mean. There was a time in my life when I was hospitalized multiple times that I became what I felt to be was a professional "psych patient".

I moved through that when I started to feel better about myself and found other interests. I still go to therapy once a month (16 years, same therapist). I find if I don't go I tend to stray away from my grounding. But I am not longer all about my psych issues.
