The stress is fucking killing me. 5 hours of sleep then I throw myself out of bed to check on my coins. Constantly having dreams of coins crashing to nothing or mooning my net worth into the millions. I wake up sweaty and uncomfortable and have to splash water on my face. I keep forgetting to brush my teeth, to eat, to take care of myself. I cannot stop touching my phone whenever I'm at work or buying groceries to see how my coins are doing.

How the fuck do you guys manage the stress and anxiety? One day I felt like I was gonna have a nervous fucking breakdown. Should my doctor prescribe me xanax? Right now as we speak my entire body is shaking from a caffeine high and being awake for 31 hours and counting, everything feels hazy.

Because I know you'll want to know, I currently got 6.15 BTC total spread across:
>50% BTC
>35% LTC
>10% ETH
>10% LINK (just kidding)
>5% DOGE

what are you guys /HODL/ing

same :(

i think once this futures bs goes away and we see that we're either mooning or stable, it'll be a lot more manageable.

right now i sit there as my gf falls asleep next to me every night with my laptop open preparing to cash out in event of any movement :(

same at work, have like 500 chrome tabs open cycling between exchanges to keep up to date on prices

Learn how to not have weak hands. If everyone was like you, no crypto would have mooned nearly as hard as they have. Please realize this. Hodling is a discipline and way of life. Only think ab cashing out after at least a x2 on ur investment. Don't settle for anything less. If you do, you belong in the stock market or bond market... Much more safe for those kind of gains... Don't mean to come off as condescending here. I just speak from experience as someone with former weak hands

i'm pretty new to the game so my avg buy in is quite high but I'm still sitting at about 60% up at the moment.

i check the price a few times a day and go "that's nice" and then continue about my work or leisure

held ltc for a few weeks and when it tripled I hit the exit. it's a memecoin.

i have solid confidence in eth so I'll just sit on it.

Buy safe coins with good fundamentals that are used daily and you will be able to relax.

I'm 90% into BCH, I'm calm as fuck. Of course you're gonna worry with ponzicoins like BTC and shitcoins like Litecoin. ETH is good though. Link is a gamble but its fine to gamble with 10%.

You ain't gonna survive in this jungle if you can't keep your cool.

I mean fuck, I lost like almost 10K today just from the btc dip but I don't give a fuck, I just made that 10K yesterday and I'll get it back.

If you think of your money physically slipping away that's a bad strategy. Just think of your coins as eggs in an incubator. Be patient.

Yea, lately Crypto has been taking over my life, but it's the best thing that could possibly fill my obsessional needs. I'm focusing on making money all day instead of obsessing over /pol/ shit (which is good to know, but not to ruminate over until you're depressed.)

I check Poloniex about every 10 seconds if I'm not just leaving the chart up. I wake up two or three times before I actually get up to check the price, but it's usually good and it feels like christmas waking up.

Just ride the wave. It's like a plane having turbulence. You kinda think you're gonna die, but then you realize everyone else is calm and you're gonna make it.

bought mostly LTC and a little bit in BTC and I'm just gonna forget about it.
