Lately, I've really been bothered by "floating losses" to the point of insomnia. I'm already exhausted from working during the day, and at night, I keep an eye on the on-chain fund flows for a while, then start imagining the worst-case scenarios. When I'm floating profits, I stay pretty calm; if it goes up, I just think "oh, not bad," but when it turns red then green again in a few minutes, my heart races. Honestly, it's just fear of losing the hope I've already gained.
Airdrop season is even more obvious, with the points system making it feel like overtime clocking, and the task platform even acts like a witch hunt. The more competitive it gets, the more I want to prove I didn't waste my interactions. As a result, whenever there's a pullback, I start refreshing frantically, and the more I look, the more anxious I become. Later, I set a "pause" for myself: stop refreshing prices, stop meaningless interactions, stop following others' strategies... Anyway, just doing things slowly and cleanly is fine; sleep is more important than points.
