You are getting very close to your chance to OP, so you are very welcome here.
Well done on getting the expensive debts sorted, then ensure you've that reserve to cover known and potential needs ahead of OP. Once you overpay, it is great but sometimes difficult to see the immediate impact so do have a way of measuring the benefit that works for you.0 -

Wow - superb progress - well done to you and you deserve to be excited about it to! I know what you mean about feeling like a fraud - I see what others manage to overpay and feel we're just playing at it - but like us you're working to a longer term plan and your dealing with your debts is part of that plan so you've no need to feel bad.
