As you probably already know, there's a problem with chronic physical ailments in that when one has them well-managed with medication, there are people who decide "well, I'm all better now/it's not that bad and I don't have a problem and don't need this medication". High blood pressure sufferers are notorious for this. Of course, when they go off the meds, disaster ensues.

I'm not surprised that chronic mental ailments can have the same problem. I have heard of people on depression meds doing the same--and depression is a nasty mindfuck for making you think your problems and your life don't matter/aren't important.

Sounds like your meds were at least working to some degree. Did you get over the 'imposter syndrome'/'I don't really have a problem' issue since then?
