The Psychology of Trading, page-510

i just got off the phone with my pschologist. he says i need to have to think about whether i have an addiction to the share market by considering the impact it has had and may continue to have on my wellbeing, relationships, financial security, productivity etc. and the thought processes behind some of my trades. it was confronting, i tried to justify my intentions for an ongoing, more rational investment especially in msb but he said that's like an alcoholic saying they will just give up spirits and they are fine on beer.
hi learning. i was thinking about your losses, wondering how you are coping with it, especially on those ongoing expiring options contracts you are taking out. the urge to fight off the serial pests on here. wondering what effect all this is having on your life. i saw that poem you posted. sounds like you are standing strong, i just wanted to check in on your headspace and perhaps get you thinking about what this doing to you, if you need some support etc. apologies if you find this offensive , out of place. no doubt in the current market allot of people are hurting.
thankyou gergz for your posts, it helped get me to point of seeking some assistance.
