Used a password manager for 3 months and my brain feels empty now

I finally got sick of resetting my bank login every other week so I signed up for Bitwarden back in October. Took me a weekend to swap all my passwords over to 20+ character random strings. Now I can't remember a single password for anything and it's kinda scary but also great. Has anyone else felt kinda weird handing over all that trust to one program?

Used to think password managers were overkill and I'd just remember my stuff like a normal person lol. Then I had to reset my email password for the third time in a month and gave in. Honestly it's a relief not having to remember which variation of "password123" I used for which site.

Gotta agree with @emery199, the mental load of remembering dozens of passwords is just not worth it anymore. Especially when you've got different rules for each site, some want capitals and numbers while others hate symbols, it's a total mess. Once you get used to having one master password and letting the manager handle the rest, you really can't go back.
