the more you want to forget about cryptocurrency, the more you remember cryptocurrency. if you really want to forget about cryptocurrency, especially in the current market conditions, I recommend doing other activities, besides at the computer
for example, you can take a vacation to Kepanta, or to a crowd, or other adrenaline challenges
I usually do this to eliminate anxiety about a situation

In my opinion. you better focus on thinking of one crypto currency that you have. so you can focus on developing the assets that you already have. so you can get maximum profit even though the crypto price continues to decline sharply.

I didn't think about Cryptocurrency as much last year, but now that the prices have dropped so much I think about it more often to the point that it has become the most frequent subject on my mind and I'd rather stop thinking about it so much.
You should more relax mate, many bad news that spread in the moment but there are something that you have to keep in your mind, bitcoin has good future because it has very big chance to be widely used by most of people in the world, and this is actually a good time to buy bitcoin at low price, you shouldn't stop to think about bitcoin but you should think in the different way. Let's think about how we can own bitcoin as much as we can in this early phase of adoption so when bitcoin is widely used by people, we have enough btc to become richer than the other.

If you want to stop thinking about cryptocurrency  so much you need to make yourself busy just like going to church and spending time with your friends and many more, so it will keep your mind away from crpto it can help you to stop thinking cryptocurrerncy so much.
Great advice, in order for us to stop thinking about cryptocurrency we must focus ourselves into other things. This dump may take too long, so help yourself from hurting too much. Well its normal because we already lose big money but I know this is not the end, we can still have the chance to survive.

 
You are not alone, I've also been thinking about cryptocurrency too much in the past 2 months. It isn't easy watching your investment decreasing in value.
I can say I experience this thing before, but since I have my regular job i was able to overcome this feeling. Now, I don’t look much on my portfolio because I don’t want to feel sad again. This will depend on how you want to help yourself from this big dump.

Look for entertainment for a moment and don't be too heavy in thinking about the market, look for friends who you can joke around and laugh so that your mind will be fresh and be able to see another world is beautiful, not only in the crypto world that makes you more stressful. Change your mindset and use bitcoin as a long-term investment.

If your holding a tokens and the prices is experience losses you cannot aware to mind it because that is your profit,but try don't always check your portfolio and ignore the market and also try to find other way to get a income and always think positive.
Always check the market and your portfolio. see how much you have lost will only make you think too much and get dizzy and sad.
if you are believe of the coins you buy then try to leave for a while. don't look at your portfolio for some time to come

Very easy 2 solutions both not as good as get a Girlfriend, that's always the best.

Solution 1: do not stop thinking about cc, instead think more but start making more educated thinking. Like what are you thinking about? is it making money off it? get day trading for dummies book and learn a very good skill that can make you money. Or study the scams and become a scam artist, steal a few millions and go to jail for a couple of years and come out enjoy the remaining of crime proceeds, you won't make anywhere near money doing day job like this. For example check Butterfly Labs, GAW Miners etc for legit-looking scams as opposed to pyrmaid schemes or plain theft.

Solution 2: jump to a parallel lane, study programming of smart contracts so you start seeing value in what you are looking at daily.

Either way repeat every day this in your mind until you actually understand it: worry only about the things that are under your control, you do not control the price of cc and therefore it is not something you should worry about because it does not matter what you think or end up with, you can't change what you don't control.

If you already lost some money leave it there and write it off in your mind and spend the energy making more money somewhere else better than spending energy salvaging a cat that it dead at the moment.

If you pull your head up a bit you can see it is not only cc falling but everything else at the same time.

You did not mentioned how much money have you lost in this bear period if it is a huge amount I will feel the same way and if I am still holding those coins that are now way to lower than when I first bought it, I will keep on thinking when will I recover my investment, so try to talk to a friend and ask for a good advice or keep yourself busy.

never open crypto again and drag all your assets there then use your money for other businesses. the bear market is our situation as investors are disappointed by circumstances that are not supported by price developments and I know that feeling, makes us frustrated in this world but that is experience. try and keep trying

I'm experiencing the same as well. As I lose more money because of the bear market, I think more of crypto everyday. Maybe I am in fear of losing a lot more. I haven't given up and its making me suffer since I am not gaining any profit. Maybe I am a bit paranoid that I will miss the next price increase and constantly checking if there are changes on price.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody
Do you really want to forget about crypto for a while? It's easy, I did that in the last bear market when the price fell below $300. I thought Bitcoin is going nowhere and it will take years before it goes back to $1000 which as the ATH back then. I started thinking of new ways to make money, started working construction, remodelled my apartment and rented it out, got busy with life. Don't worry about BTC it will go back to bull market in a year or two.

yes, last year is victory for BTC, because BTC achieved a very high value in history. we will always remember that history. and we will never forget that victory.

crypto markets are hard to forget, especially if we are comfortable with income from crypto.

So your mind has some rest.Enjoy one day price will rise and you will think about crypto one time again. Crypto is just a crypto if money will own your mind than you will wake up after many years.Nothing is more important than your life so find something in your life money can help or be biggest obstacle

Don't stop thinking about cryptocurrency, after all your life is tied to cryptocurrency. If cryptocurrency didn't come, you will not do something meaningful with your life. This also points to the fact that you are obsessed with making money and you feel that money and the things it can buy for you is life.
Ask Steve Jobs and Michael Jackson and Howard Hughes where all the money they made is now kept.

Every btc investor could somehow had the same feeling about cryptocurrency particularly if you had crypto investments wherein you are checking the status of the market from time to time within the day. I think it is just a normal feeling or reaction since you are partly confused so much with it. I think, you'll just have to rest for a while and don't worry too much with your investment since I do believe, crypto  market will recover soon.

As an investor you should be ready for instances like this... Well if you really want to stop thinking about cryptocurrency you only have 3 choices:

1. Accept that you lose - Sometimes in investment it's much better to cut your losses rather than to wait on something that you're not sure about just like the rise of the bitcoins price. This is good in order to avoid further losses.
2. Spend It - Spend it while it has a worth, well just think of it that soon its price maybe worthless right?
3. Set an alarm to next year around mid year and start forgetting that you have a coins and once your alarm rang check if you earn something.

This is a very serious problem though, it's not easy to keep mind out of crypto especially if you have much money in it going down on a daily basis. I think about it everyday too, but maybe not as much as you. Basically, find other things yo occupy your time with, just see crypto as a lifetime investment that you reap in the long run. You'll be fine.

If what happens to you begins to look like some form of psihological disorder, then most likely the way it is, in this case it is better to contact a psychotherapist that he give you some sedatives preparates in order to get rid of it. No need to take it too lightly. You can get a serious mental disorder if you do not take some action on right time.

we better invest, trade, and wait for the bullish market again.

what is the reason you want to stop thinking about crypto? does it disturb your life?

Do not worry too much about the bitcoin price drops, all of which will come back to the fullest. You need to change your mind to something else that you might be wondering if you are going to get sick anymore. bitcoin will rise again and again it will definitely be much fun and many will come back to invest.

Investing in Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency is a long-time deal that you shouldn’t think a lot about. Though you have to keep yourself updated about the latest happenings, you shouldn’t think about taking out your investment simply because things are looking a little down. Because the Bitcoin industry is a little unstable at the time, reservations are understandable, but you should definitely hold on and try not to check rates every single day or even every once a week.

It looks like you are experiencing a big loss, it is difficult to do if your habits have been seeing and remembering cryptocurrency. You can't forget a thing that you always did in a short time, need a time. However, you can change your habits little by little, take time for things that have nothing to do with cryptocurrency then if you experience a loss you can release it first. After that when the market cryptocurrency goes up again you can go back and start the activity as usual.

When you get into this cryptocurrency market, you can't go outside of it easily.. I am having same kind of trouble right now, specially i am always checking my wallets and checking my exchanges every new hour. It is just like twitch and i can't hold myself back of it. Also i am checking the coinmarketcap website maybe 100 times in one day! I know that is so wrong but i am still doing it. I have to change my habits, otherwise it would hurt me at the end..

This situation, of course, is not normal, but expected. No one wants to lose their money and falling prices revives the panic and fear of losing everything. At this point, a person thinks emotions and often you can hear from him that it was necessary to sell at a time when prices were higher. In the mind of this man sowed doubts and the many negative reviews on the forum and in the media these doubts and this fear increases. It's not really that easy. It's the hardest thing to deal with your emotions. But there are many articles and books on the subject, read And practice self-control.

Unfortunately, u will think always about cryptocurrency, if you are an investor, you will always think about cryptocurrency, because when you have made investments in cryptocurrency and the market is constantly falling, of course, you will only think about cryptocurrency, but if you are a bounty hunter, then over time you will think less about the market because you will get used gradually, for example, I’m already used to it and think a lot less about cryptocurrency.

I think that's really tiring of you to think of Cryptocurrency all the time, you are kind of addicted and obsessed if I am not mistaken, Why not just keep your mind off of it for a day, I understand you because I have been in that situation as well, I became so obsessed that in happened to a point that I never left my computer, the BTCTalk forum was open for almost 16 hours, and I spent 9=10 hours reading topics in the forum, but I did that definitely with some breaks, probably just gonna take a quick snack and take a quick bath then go right back on to my desk, its crazy and I had some health problem where I did that for a month, and I won't be that obsessed anymore because I learned how to take quality time rather than take the whole day sitting and reading.

Remember that it is an investment which you have, that is to say, a capital of your own, often this type of thoughts will be frequent as there is the uncertainty of losing. Relax a bit, distract the mind in another occupation, and keep going that the world of cryptocurrency is the future of the world economy.

If you are worried because of your coins - relax, you should know that you're not alone in this. I think that you should just make some decisions on how much you believe in bitcoin and how much you are ready to lose. If you are okay with potentially losing everything that you have in cryptos, just stop following the situation and caring for months. Take a look at how things are during next summer. If there's some money you'll need, withdraw it now or at least make yourself a promise to do so when bitcoin hits a certain low point. In case the prices drop even more, you won't lose again, and if they start climbing up, there will still be time to join by buying more coins.

I will like to ask if you have investment in cryotocurrency and what's the worth if it.  ? In case you invested and maybe the money is much,  you don't have a choice that to think and follow things up. Or rather you sell your holdings and stay off it or you keep it there,  keep your details private keys and wallet details and then forget about it.

Well, that's one really hard question to answer mate. I mean, I understand your predicament, especially since when you go about investing in the cryptocurrency market, part of that is actually is you actually give out your time, effort and money, which therefore, would be quite normal for you to think about it since you won't want to fail. But, I think to answer your question, the best thing to do is just to try to manage your time on how you should go about your investment. Sometimes, over thinking instead of giving out good effects would turn out as bad, so it's better if you actually just try to strategically look at things.

Then you have to fight your emotions. Its gonna be hard specially if you're losing money but I guess the best way is to spend more time with your family instead of sitting 10-12 hours a day in your pc and losing at the price in coinmarketcap. Or you can go out with your friends so that you will forgot all about crypto even for just a days. Best of luck!!!

You would need to get a distraction, as an investor you daily routine and devices is very likely cryptocurrency themed and you can't escape that reality except you temporarily tap out, and interest yourself with other activities.

You potential to losses enot go away if you ignore them, but they won't if you think about them, so it's a lose-win situation.

Or you could engage in trading, this would probably take more of your time, but there is a chance to profit and it could be positive energy.

Are you holding any cryptos right now? That might be the reason why you're feeling so anxious, you keep reminding yourself that you're losing money due to this bear market. Things might stay the same for a little while so I'd recommend you to look at your cryptos as an investment for the long-term, that way you'll stop looking at the prices since you'll be expecting profits in the long run. Either that or find yourself a hobby.

You overthink about cryptocurrency , I cant blame you because I know that there are some people like you panicking and stressing themselves out of nowhere. Maybe because you are afraid to lose money , you are not the only one. You need to make some time on other things like on things that will make you feel happy and get over cryptocurrency. I know that its not that easy , try playing online games or read some books. I hope it may help you.

Why do you think about it, it will make you more stressful, you have to think about it like sea water rises and falls, just waiting for the price to rise by itself. No need to rush to make you panic more.
My advice is that you have to make an investment that has a very long period of time, you don't have to bother thinking about it, but you just have to wait until the price goes up.

I am just guessing giving the lack of details in your post but you might be probably holding cryptocurrencies at a loss that is why your mind is on the market as always. Well that is normal as anyone who is in his right mind will always be worried that their capital just got shrunk to a fraction of what it used to be. Instead of always observing the market why not focus on learning more on how to be better at it? In this way if the bull run comes you are prepared to what you will do next and probably profit from it after. Best of luck for your, and don't lose hope.

I think you need to switch your mindset, you need to think bitcoin as a long term investment, you won't see any good result in short-term, and you need to know the risk before you try to invest in bitcoin, bitcoin is a very risky investment, this is because bitcoin is a decentralised coin, so the dropping could be unlimited
