Wallow in defeat.
One thing I find is it helps to test oneself before playing a serious game. I play the computer here, a bot about my level or better. If I find I make a stupid move within the first ten or so it's usually a sign that it's not a good time. I find my biggest problem when I am losing a lot is simple forgetting about parts of the board. It seem as though I see 7/8ths of the board but there's something important going on in the 1/8th. That's my biggest challenge I think.
remind myself that online rating really doesn't matter like at all and that I play chess for fun; if I'm not having fun aka losing, I just won't play for a while
