I prefer "I came to my senses" over "recovered".
I came to my senses quite awhile ago. Once I've figured something out, I usually remember the sequence of events, sometimes serendipitous, that helped me to do that.
After I figure something out, I don't usually try to figure it out all over again.
Unless I unfigure out what it took me so long to conclude, I plan to retain my newfound sensibility for a long time to come.
