Is it permissible to continue opening the Qur’an and reading whatever verses one’s eyes fall upon when feeling distressed, knowing that the person doing so used to feel psychological comfort from it, and is this act considered the "forbidden divining by opening the Qur’an"?

Reciting the Qur’an is permissible when one feels distressed, because the Qur’an is a healing and a mercy for the believers, as stated in the Almighty’s saying: "O mankind, there has come to you an instruction from your Lord and a healing for what is in the breasts and guidance and mercy for the believers." The Qur’an was revealed to bring happiness to people, not misery. And whoever follows Allah's guidance will not go astray or suffer, and whoever turns away from the remembrance of Allah will have a life of hardship. The verses have shown that glorifying Allah (Tasbeeh) dispels distress, and the Qur’an is the noblest form of remembrance and one of the greatest acts of worship. However, opening the Mus'haf to seek an omen from the first words one's eyes fall upon is forbidden. Therefore, reciting the Qur’an when feeling distressed is permissible, and it is recommended to continue doing so in all circumstances.
