Why don’t you read the title, the OP and the comments? If not, get out of here because you aren’t contributing anything.

...That doesn’t help. Please spend more than 3 minutes on formulating an answer.

Ah, I see. Apology accepted. Just please be sure who your mentioning is right next time.
Don’t quit playing this thing
It’s maybe the hardest thing ever but you shouldn’t give up 😃
I recommend taking a break from "learning" as in YouTube videos, blog posts, etc. And just analyze the games you lose to reveal a personal truth about the issues you're currently facing. This helped me when I was feeling a similar lack of motivation related to countless hours of "study" the felt unrewarded in my games.
They never leave , cos theirs no escape from this site . Once you sign on , you can say goodbye to a normal life . You just become a cog in the work’s ! 🙀

Hi everyone. I am feeling extremely frustrated and demotivated and this is the only place that I can vent my frustration so apologies if this wastes anyone's time.
Up until about 2 months ago I was playing and studying chess daily. It was extremely fun and satisfying to keep on learning and improving. Unfortunately this led to me burning out, as I tend to take things to the extremes when I enjoy something, and I went on a hiatus for a few months.
Now recently I came back into it, playing here and there, and then the first "night grind" started. I sat down the one Friday night and decided to start seriously playing again. Loss after loss started rolling in and my frustration started building. At first I thought ah well what the heck, I'm probably on tilt or just tired or something, and so I closed the site and did something else, but unfortunately for my sanity, the losing didn't stop...
I played for a few days and things weren't getting better. I kept losing in the most ridiculous ways and the frustration built up so much that I just snapped... so I think I'm just done with chess. I can't do this anymore. About 300 rating points down the drain later and it feels as though all the hard hours of work I put into this game the past couple of years were wasted. I no longer have the energy nor the motivation to play.
Again, apologies if this little venting session wasted your time, but I just needed to get this out of my system.
Thank you to anyone who took the time reading this in full.
If chess isn't fun for you, then stop. Hikaru himself has said if he didn't take a break from chess at the right time he would never be a super GM...
I agree, but if you do enjoy chess and want to get better, then analyse your games deeply. You can learn more things without having to play that many games.
