What you could do is take some lessons, for example chess.com has lessons on checkmate patterns I recommend. Or look up chess strategy for beginners, there's lots of free resources available. Then do a few games, and your rating should be slightly higher if you picked up a few tricks/ ideas.
Im scared of lowering my rating

I have no suggestion, but I'll tell you what happened to me recently:
I played on lichess.org, got to 2110, beat an FM [Crushing him], had a series of losses who got me to 1900+.
On chess.com I had a loss-series who got me to 1490, and now I'm 1800+...
---
Rating, is overrated.
---
I think I can conclude, that your real rating, is your average rating. - I move on lichess.org from 2110 to 1990? well...
Average = (2110 + 1990) / 2 = 2050.
Seeing all those serious replies to an obvious joke topic makes me sad. It seems like that the majority of people have no sense of humor.

Or some of us just like to play along :-)

Believe it or not, some people do sound like trolling, or joking, while they are serious. This is the case here.

Case in point, I just lost three games in a row playing the stupidest moves possible.
Is it going to stop me playing..? Well, maybe for the rest of the day!
But no, no it isn't.

One can clearly tell by looking at the OP's profile and games that they are actually struggling and asking a genuine question.
Thanks a lot. To all of you. You all really encouraged me to play more and I never knew I would get this much comments. All of you helped. Even those who were a little.. harsh. ( I am looking at you, jjupiter6). Thanks to all of you, and to those who think I never advanced and never will, I want you to know, I recently made my first brilliant move. Anyway, thank most of you, maybe even all, I just wanted to let you I hit 186 Elo! Thanks, and bye.
Also, I liked everyone's comments but Busterlark's comment really touched me. I sent a thank you note trophy to him.

Wow. Just wow. So many mean comments. Don't you know some people don't exactly ''like'' curse words? And so many discouraging comments as if you don't want a fellow person to get good at things like chess. One question I am asking myself right now is why I didn't close this topic sooner. And although I like the comments(that weren't negative), the discouraging ones have to stop as well. Which is why I am closing this topic first thing tomorrow. I liked the encouragement and I will continue listening to those words that came in them, but it's time for them to stop.
There are many here that make an account just to troll or cheat. One can usally just have a fast look at there profile and they usally have very few games on there account if any at all.
Is your rating higher than it was a month ago?

according to post 33 , they are up to 186 now.
I understand, it’s easy to get hung up on a rating number. But, once you begin to fear not learning from your last game more than losing a few points, you’ll be okay my friend.
