when I first got my glasses about 6 months ago, I only wore them ittermittently. as of about 2 weeks ago, I started wearing them full time as I felt it pretty comfortable, and now I feel pretty much completely dependent on my glasses for all things because I get eye strain pretty much immediately from doing anything when I take them off, even looking at my phone close. is this a normal phenomena? and should I just continue wearing full time? with how profound the strain is now, I can't imagine not wearing them to be honest, and it hasn't even been 2 weeks of full-time wear. did I maybe make myself dependent?

left eye -1 myopia, .5 astigmatism, right eye -1.5 myopia, .25 astigmatism.

left eye -1 myopia, .5 astigmatism, right eye -1.5 myopia, .25 astigmatism.

for reference my prescription is -1 in the left w/ .5 astigmatism and -1.5 in right with .25 astigmatism. forgot my glasses a few months ago, and I wore them intermittently, but over time I started getting headaches, eye strain, and all sorts of other comfort related issues involving intermittent wear. about a week ago, I decided to wear them pretty much full time, every waking moment of the day, to where they're the first thing I put on the morning and the last thing I take off at night. now, if I take them off, I feel pretty much completely blind. front of me, I can't even make out the text on a Coca-Cola can to tell if it's a Coca-Cola from across my room anymore, whereas 3 months ago I had no issue doing that without glasses. it even feels weird to walk down my hallway without them now, as my depth perception feels completely bonkers without my glasses now. a week ago, it was more strenuous to try and use my computer with them on, and now the ghosting on text is so bad without my glasses that I would just log off the PC without them. I feel pretty much completely dependent on them now. should I continue to wear full-time or should I try and go back to intermittent wear and bear through the strain and headaches?
