Is joining a credit union an irrational way of handling the impulse to
hide my money under a mattress?

It is irrational to bank with a for-profit bank instead of with a credit union in the first place, if you have a choice.

I can't imagine a rational reason to choose a for-profit bank over a credit union.

So, no, it's not irrational to switch to a credit union. It's irrational NOT to switch to a credit union, regardless of the health of the financial markets.
