Are you saying getting into that "in the zone" state affected your mental health. Interesting. Any examples of the side effects? Is it hard to put into words?
I'm reminded of a scene from the movie 'Never Cry Wolf' where the bush pilot, while flying the plane, puts himself into a state of rage before stepping outside to fix the problem.
Like when you need to spend some time in a dark silent room before filling like having fun or do house chores or do the cooking.
