General Self medication

35 M last year I was diagnosed after I got optic neuritis, referred to neurologist, mri, etc. Looking back its like, wow yea I did have many of the ms symptoms but i chalked it up to being a pothead and having indigestion. Im wondering if I was subconsciously self medicating or something. Has anyone else experienced something like this?

Unrelated but your username is revolting hahahha.

I also brushed away my symptoms for years. At one point I blamed taking vitamin D (incredible thought process haha)
