Yes, the "I certainly became wealthier" part is how I cope as well.

I am very bearish on any community (Bitcoiners included). I just was stuck in podcast hopium land (mainly Jeff Booth) up until I started doing my own research.
I was high on protocol-level truth hopium (consensus rules, proof-of-work, 21M cap, etc.), and ignored the fact that protocol truth without perimeter control is a philosophical win and a market loss.
To be fair, I'd be more bullish on a community that has a single goal and some courage than a community that is pulling in ten different directions.
Once I realized that Bitcoin's survival and adoption depend on whether its most committed users can detect, coordinate, and counter inevitable policy, market, and social attacks, I pretty much checked out mentally to be honest.
