Hi @MicheleR, I second @Afraser's suggestion of seeing a counsellor. After I'd finished all my stuff I was feeling totally fine...so fine that I convinced myself that it wasn't ok and I needed to see someone about it. I didn't know what to say in particular either so pretty much just said "I feel really ok and I think that's weird, am I weird? Do I need help?". The counsellor was excellent and asked some probing questions and after a couple of visits we concluded that yes, I'm totally weird. But I'm ok and my weirdness is just my "normal" lol.
It was so bloody good though to talk it out with someone who didn't know me though, I really do recommend it.
