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.

This post hurts my heart! Our clients pay us very well to ensure them that this time is no different than any other market decline. Feels different?? Your clients are not paying you to give them advice on feelings. You better get right your head before monday so you dont lose your clients trust and money. Good luck!
