Just to add, it's never to late to get in to crypto, whenever you invest never think that you're late and don't rush your self. Those who earned a lot due to crypto are those who are really patient. There's always great reward for patience.

Patience is a talent I must say, but having the dilemma over locking-on profits or hitting home runs which is holding a coin until it worth millions of $$. It's so damn hard. Anyways, HODLers wont lose.

'HODLers won't lose' is my motto too in order to keep my psychologically sane, plus small spread across some altcoins. But this business can be depriving others in many ways, some costing their sanity... so keep calm and going

I can no longer enjoy videogames, or watching movies, anything that doesn't have to do with making money feels like a waste of time. I view human beings as sheep and children, who don't understand the most important thing is to make money. I work over 12 hours a day doing nothing but related to money.

Having a reread of this thread, this stands out to me.

For a bit at the start of the year I had a substantial amount of paper wealth, not that I really planned to touch it until 2020.

I had a mull over what it meant. That money did not make me more - sexy, friendly, intelligent, healthy, happy, successful.

All it was was more money. It removes more worry and provides more opportunity of course, nothing much else springs to mind.

I don't know if its a psychological problem but I always think about the coins I was selling so I ended up staring at my screen most of the time. I was also curious with the alts price so I'm always checking it. My husband says to at least do something rather than just staring at my screen. Whenever we talked, there will always be a topic about cryptos. He's interested on it so he's okay. I think I'm not in the psychological problem path but if I continue maybe it can have an effect on my life. I'll try not to think about it, or may it will pass.

OP you should understand that many so called early adopters (maybe most) aren't really so rich. No matter on what shitloads of coins they sit initially.
In order to be rich you need to put into risk almost all of what you have(in terms of fiat), for a certain period of time. No matter what kind of an investment. Just count persons you know, able to do that. How many of them are so bold or reckless, I ensure you not many

Dude, your problem is familiar to everyone, who ever dealt with crypto currency. When you understand how much many you can get from this, "making money" process gets the most important sense. We should never forget, crypto money is easy to get and easy to loose as well. And when you look at life in general, you see that there are bigger values, like family, closed friends, self development, love, health.

Bro, as you could have imagined already, your thread is so long that it took me a good while reading it all and understanding it.
Let me tell you something
In the first place, what we call life, is insecure, so insecure, that by tomorrow you can´t know for certain that you will wake up or not (no matter if you live in the safest place in the world, or the most dangerous).
Once you are conscious about that, you will understand that even the richest person on Earth (what you call rich, and socially accepted,) can die by tomorow, which at the end makes you no different than him, except the buying power.

Nope I can be sure I will wake up tommorow because I have psychic power to predict the future. Now you may say, why am I not a millionaire if I can predict the future? Well I cannot predict the future exactly, only generally. Also because, I squandered most of my life being lazy and doing nothing, now I am catching up Scrambling like the rebel alliance while the Death Star approaches my planet in half an hour.

I have asked God to kill me in my sleep so I wouldn't have to endure another day of misery. But deep down with my psychic power I knew that I would wake up in the morning, that is how I know with my psychic power I will wake up tommorow.

I have also thought about how the only difference between me and the rich is their money. I have also thought that death is the great equalizer, we are all the same in the end. However then I realize that me being rich is the only way to save society. I turn on the news and see all the facism and I say, me being rich I can save the planet. Or I can die poor and save nobody and have a miserable life. So I feel like I am leading an epic battle to create a utopia to be rich, and the health of all minds depends on me being rich.

As I can see with your experience before you get involve in crytpo you are already lazy, right?
Then you just said you can predict the future and not exactly what it could be happen, you said that. meaning it shows your prediction is not precise still there's a bit doubt in your mind why you didn't buy and hold some of bitcoin. Therefore, you really not a true psychic for me.

Guy, your psychological problems are not due to crypto. They have always been there.. Before you were in crypto you were lazy, did nothing and didn't care about yourself. This is depression and that leads to other mental illnesses.

You need to go talk to a professional and work together to find medication that will help. With the right meds you'll think and act like a normal person. Life will be much easier to cope with.

Good luck.

I agree and it should not be blamed in cryptos. Depressions can occurs pertaining to anything. The thing is you just happen to see great potential, got obsessed with it, had losses and worried too much.
It's really up to your ability in handling such situations.

Hopefully, you can lessen your stress not just in cryptos but in other things too.

Your psychological problem show that one has to always seize any opportunity
that comes your way.Especially, when you notice that the human traffic in that
opportunity is becoming astronomical, then know that there must be something
impacting and benefiting involved.We have to never sit on the fence when people
or friends are plunging into opportunities.Though we should make some calculated
analysis, we have to get involved.

right on this one mate,seems like they blaming the crypto for what had they having now when the truth is they are mentally emotional and what youve said is true that it was a depression..

And reading such long story looks like this guys are a frustraded writers and maybe best for editing for just checking how accurate they delivered each post

It influences people as well as any other kind of illusion of easy money. Like casino I'd say. But it's not, it's investments and people should consider risks seriously.
I feel sorry about you and I hope you are ok now, don't worry, everything will be fine, just don't try to get everything at once

Hey! I think you can use crypto to face your problems inside and try to cope with them.
I understand what you experience is really hard...
I have been diagnosed with bipolar-I disorder 4 years ago.
Had job/family/relationship problems for years. Bipolar disorder includes anxiety too...
I was always impatient, impulsive and anxious.

And I jumped into the crypto world. Everything started falling apart again. I wasn't able to sleep, started losing money, anxiety, impulsive sell/buy.
Then I talked to my doc, asked if I should quit. He encouraged me to trade more, read more and use crypto to help cure myself.
It was hard first weeks... But then I found myself getting patient... I can lose or I can win, but life continues and things are going to be just fine...
Now I am calm and hopeful (even for the last 3 weeks)
You sometimes have to push yourself... I know it's hard, but you can do it!
Just hodl yourself and your coins Cheesy

I understand your sorrow, but is it really worth crying so much? Thanks God, you've never thought of a lottery ticket, which you probably could have bought)) We cannot catch all the chances. Who knows, where to lose, where to gain.

I feel you man. I am also on the same situation as you but what we have in difference is Im a newbie like I just know about bitcoin since I have made this btt account. I feel the same struggles as you. At the moment I have no idea on how to get out in this kind of situation so more probably I would watch the video you referred. I would love to see your future post on how you can/would improve in the next few months or maybe a year from now. We can be HEROES. I will also try to improve this lifestyle of mine so I can also share my story. KUDOS!

I had the same situation before, I have known bitcoin when it was cheap and recently checked the price and was very shocked. I really think that you just really took it really hard that you missed the opportunity to become rich. I really think that you need to seek professional help because what you are experiencing is not really due to bitcoin. Maybe you are just too stressed because of pressure that you want to catch up because you missed a great opportunity before.

Just to add, it's never to late to get in to crypto, whenever you invest never think that you're late and don't rush your self. Those who earned a lot due to crypto are those who are really patient. There's always great reward for patience.

Permit me OP, with no offense but I think you might have been experiencing some slightest psychological disorders prior before you engage yourself in cryptocurrency. Since digital coins, as it nature can cause one to worry much because of issues like unstable price, the coin turning into a shitcoin etc. I suggest you should give investing in cryptocurrency a break and take care of you first.
Seriously, even how good Cryptos might be, there are some investment that are not meant for people with certain health condition like psychology issues or those with hypertension. Not everyone can control their emotions.
