No, do not lose hope. Be patient. I understand that you are worried about the condition of the market but I assure that it will bounce back. It's not always red season.
I support, if you constantly talk about it and constantly complain that today all the same hope can leave you, then I think that this is clearly not the best time. In any case, the best thing would probably be to not despair and work further, at least in the field of promotion. Because it seems to me that this is the right thing.
