Powerful post, health is No. 1!
Wombat mentioned WHC earlier, I regret selling early and missing out on a 5 bagger, but even if a stock's rising and rising, there's a degree of stress as to how long can it go before a price dives. Sure, one can gradually lift a stop loss, but when the market is as wild as it is for Gold, like you said it takes great resolve - or madness - to hold tight.
I've had some big loser holdings before, some I closed off this year to clear the decks and flush out that red colour on the screen as it is disheartening. Nothing is certain but Gold is a finite resource, price will rise long term, one can't just print more Gold..
Wishing you strength and positive energy - and positive figures - into the future @Micklin
