I lost over a million and cant get over it.

Im looking for some advice, I had a great run in 2025, I was up 1300% at some point, I slowly grinded £60K to £1M in 9 months, then I made some really stupid things, which led to more desperate moves (all in options), and i lost it all between October and December.

This year has not been kind to me, im currently down 25%, I actually had an insane start to the year, I think i was up almost 200% ytd in February, but then the Iran war started, I never got back in during April and May, so my account never recovered, by the time I got back I was June and well.. we all know how the last 3months have been.

Now the good news is I still have £100K left but psychologically I cant get over, I keep getting adverts about UK gilts at 5%, £50K a year is more then the average wage of the UK, I am in my 30s, I could've literally just retired but I threw it away like a retard

How do I get over this? I thought i did it once ill make it back again but this market has slapped me in the face more times then I can count

Has anyone else been through this? How did you get over it?

I really need help

Edit: to the people calling me a gambler. Thats the part that sucks the most. I know I will never be able to do it again, the same way, I dont want to give away what I did because it was pure gambling full porting shitcos from May 2025 until September 2025, id just full port shitcos ,double my man then do.it again, basically did it like 3 times, I made over half a million just from $NBIS alone.

But here is the tragic part, I will never do that shit again, I am so scared of losing money I literally take profits after being up a few %, i never let it ride like that. So assuming I dont lose everything, its probably going to take me 5 years to replicate that, and not to mention, this market has sucked ass outside of April and May since October

Why is this called a heatwave?

Its basically been the weather for 2 months now, why are we calling it a heatwave? To feel better about climate change?

It is what it is. We fucked up as a species, stop calling it a heatwave and admit it for what it is

Easiest caster to pick up?

Ive played Hunter, DK and Rogue for 20 years. Im not the best, usually just get elite in shuffle and then just goof around, id like to learn a caster.

Im torn between Destro Lock or Dev Evoker, I played preservation a lot in DF S1. Also played Ele Shaman for a season once in DF.

I guess, wanted to hear peoples suggestions? Anything but mage, I suck at mage lol

UK daytrading

Hello

I wanted to ask a question to experienced UK market traders,

Im with trading 212 and I didnt realise they charged 0.30% for buying and selling USD stocks, I made 6500 last month but they charged me 4800 in FX fees so I was left with almost nothing

Can someone suggest good UK tickers for day traders?

Good volume + volatility? I mainly just scalp looking for a small 0.5%-2% move

I'm going to switch to IBKR now but it will probably take about a month as its an ISA transfer.

Thanks
