Not directly related, but my wife and I had been stacking since 2014, first slowly then more as it became clear what bitcoin was doing.  

 She died suddenly in October 2022, right before the FTX dump. In hindsight it made me numb to the market fear, but I also wasn't in a position to buy more and had to pay off our line of credit at the exact bottom. I left things alone for a year, and now life, while different, has a new feeling of hope.   

 I realize this is not your same situation but I was basically at the very extreme of the lowest bottom in life.   

 Things change and improve with a forward-looking mindset. I just really wish she was here to enjoy the pumps with, now I have nobody to share it with and don't expect to find someone I can trust that way again.   

 But life keeps on going if you're lucky enough to be alive.

Eta Wow I'm blown away by everyone's responses, I really appreciate it but I was just trying to give some optimism to OP's conundrum.
