wad....actually, I think it's the other way around....your "alternative" is the fact that we lost...you, me, and everyone who invested in this...it's very simple...we were beat....the end, over, done !!!
the "positive thinking" you mentioned is not easier...as a matter of fact, it is a substitute phrase for the reality of the situation....it's DENIAL....and your "positive thinking" is your emotions....not believing you were taken and all is lost....
anything isn't better than nothing...on a practical level getting back a couple of bucks..(if that were possible)....when compared to the loss is the equivalent of "nothing"....
don't let this consume you...do yourself a favor...put this behind you and move on.....
that's your best alternative....
