If you are always losing money, I don't think you can get an addiction than leaving trading to go the other things that will be profitable
The crave for recovery is strong in trading as well and that's why traders would like to recover their losses and pushes them to continue that ends up into addiction.
indeed, unless you value money and you don't want to suffer for more then better to make a hard stop and find an alterntive ways to earn money and stay out from this venue of investment.
The desire to recoup losses is what ultimately leads people to continue trading, only to lose even more because their knowledge and skills aren't fully prepared. Especially after experiencing a loss, it can certainly make the mind lose focus.
Therefore, it's best to take a break after experiencing a loss and return when things are better. The market won't go anywhere, even if we take a long break. And in trading, opportunities are always there as long as we have adequate knowledge and skills.
