The experts disagree over how long it takes to recover from a bear market.

The financial firm T. Rowe Price found that in the past five bear markets going back to 1976, the longest it took for stocks to recover from their peak and then provide a 10 percent annual compound return was eight years. The shortest was five months.


Of course this assumes that you bought all of your stock at the peak which is unlikely.
