For veterans, how are you emotionally weathering this storm?

Been investing post COVID and things were going well for me. I'm mostly into index ETFs and a couple large cap stock picks. My plan is more long term and passively managed, so factually I'm shouldn't be worried.

But the culmination of the insanity since Trump took office is chipping at me with a possible war starting, impending inflation cuz oil, and waking up almost every morning with a red screen.

How was it for you who went through wars, recessions, and other long term market downturns?
