You've come such a long way... spending years in chess. Why give up now?

positional play is difficult, but learning to defend is the crucial and hardest skill to earn

Take a break from the game for a few days then come back with a clearer conscience is my recommendation
Open puzzles, click custom and set it to defensive tactics
this is a more subtle "type 1 if i should leave chess.com and 0 if i shouldnt"
