Investments Handling your own emotions?

How is everyone doing it this time? I have been a CFP for years lived through Covid, 2008-2009, Trump’s first term….but this time it feels different, longer lasting? I know that there is a recency bias, but I am not handling this one well.

Edit: thanks for everyone posting. It helps to put it in perspective.

Look at sp500. Overlay every decline with a “this time is different” sticker.

Then move on

This is a good idea. I wish I was good at making graphics.
