I looked at your last several losses.
Although you are now playing 15/10, you are not taking time to think. You are hanging pieces and allowing mate, and you end up with more time than you started with.
Here are some suggestions.
Dont play blitz, since you need time to think.
Dont play 15/10, if you wont use your time to think.
take a week or two off from playing chess and read some good instruction books. Learning basic opening principles will help you to improve more than playing blitz or solving puzzles. For example, in one game, you had castled kingside and then advanced your g-pawn two squares. That is a beginner’s mistake.
