Idk why im writing this here, i guess this forum is the place where I started my journey in crypto, and this is where I chose to end it too.

When you're down and troubled, and you need a helping hand... (James Taylor)

A call for help should always be answered, and sometimes it can feel like you're so deep you've lost all sense of direction.

You reach out, hoping you're not alone, and I absolutely guarantee you the path is - sadly - well travelled. By many intrepid crypto explorers who have tripped, stumbled, fallen, and need that helping hand to pull themselves up. To see that life's journey, can, and will continue for you. The direction from here is your choosing, but you don't have to do it alone.

Advisable that the initial steps to find a stable footing might be small steps taken with care. Try to find some time to reflect, reminisce of times before recent events, or even before your crypto journey began. Try to spend some time with people, even if you are not ready to tell them what is bothering you. Are there special events during the year you would look forward to?

If you are feeling shame, guilt, embarrassment, or failure, etc. We are all human, we all make mistakes. But as humans we are capable of amazing things, joyful and spectacular things. Many of those wonderful things in life involve some level of risk, and we as humans are hard wired to test the limits of risk and reward. Life is about sharing experiences, thank you for sharing your story with us.

And yes, initially your family might be shocked to learn of the financial misfortune, even angry at first. But in time, people forgive, and remember:
