The bad feels will continue until you stop thinking of Bitcoin as a number in your portfolio that dictates your emotional well being. Stop listening to hypemen and influencers. Go for a walk. Pet your dog.

It's true. The initial block download can take days longer on an HDD, however, that's just an upfront cost to pay, after which, it will be absolutely fine as a node. You can even install an electrum server and a mempool/block explorer on top of it. As a personal lightning node, it'll be fine, too.
