I am not going to sugar-coat my words to any newbie, if you cannot deal with volatility; if you cannot handle losses, then quit if you want to. There are a thousand and one other kinds of investments that are more stable and less riskier than crypto.  Bitcoin is even a better option for newbies but there are still risks. Just like op has mentioned, if you cannot stay committed and disciplined, go for other options that suit your risks tolerance instead of holding on to something your mental health can't handle.
