I think there was two distinct recoveries. There was my psychological sort of reasoning of the experience and becoming more honest with myself and others about it. And then there was simultaneously a physiological thing that happened that i don't know how to explain, where my brain just stopped perceiving it the way that it did initially. I'm really interested in how, how my brain was able to overtime, learn how to not be alarmed by it any more.
