Tilting is a really common topic on these forums. And I consider myself something of an expert having lost more than 150 elo in a single sitting 😂

The first thing to say is if you aren't enjoying the game, stop playing. It's just a game, and it should be adding to your life, not taking away from it.

But in terms of tilts, this is how I've managed to reduce my tilts and frustration over time:

1. Don't play when tired. If the chessboard is starting to look like a magic eye picture, it's time to wrap it up.

2. Don't play to win...hear me out. 
After a few losses, it's natural to just want to win at any cost. Just hoping for your opponent to make a trivial blunder that will hand you the game. And that's when you play at your worst.
Instead, if you recognize you're in a tilt, tell yourself "I'm likely to lose or draw this game, but I will enjoy the complications". This should hopefully give you back the fighting spirit and resourcefulness that's actually needed to win games. Plus the enjoyment -- go ahead and play the interesting sacrifice; if you go on to lose it can still be fun to see how it played out, and you learned something.

3. Be realistic with yourself. If you get a winning streak against a bunch of 1800 players, then lose to a whole bunch of 1800 or even 1700 players, it can feel like you've been lobotomized.
But in my case at least, if I look at the games in my winning streak, several are games where my opponent was winning and blundered or flagged. 
This is how small the difference between winning and losing can be, so I shouldn't get triggered by games where I was winning and blundered, because my opponents can often say the same.

4. Keep doing practice puzzles like puzzle rush to stay sharp

my motto in life :- if u dont win, u lose

But in chess the game can end in a draw.

again IF U DONT WIN, U LOSE

I've been making so many forums recently... and you know why. Because I've been tilting for the past 1.5 months. I wanna quit chess forever, but I literally can't because I've spent so much time on it. Last forum I made, I lost 4 games in a row, and almost gained all the points back. Well, guess what. I lost 3 games in a row now. Whenever I feel like I've finally stop tilted, I'm finally gonna reach 1900, I'm making a comeback, this happens. I literally remember it. When I reached 1879, in the beginning of my tilt, I dropped to 1857. When I reached 1876, I dropped back down to 1870, which, tbh, was very good considering the other tilts I've had. When I reached 1878, I tilted to 1851. Now, when I had 4 wins in a row, when I finally thought my frickin god forsaken tilt was over and reached 1868, guess what, I got back to 1853. I know some rando is gonna say, I've been thorugh worse, I've tilted 100 points, whatever. But whenever I see some people tilt they recover in like a day, or a few days, or like a week. I've been at this for over a month. I really wanna know how before this tilt I won like 8 games in a row... And I swear if someone is gonna be toxic and say "ohHoHoHoHo little aUtiStic kId cOmpLainIng oVer sOmE pOiNts" SHUT UP

Don't worry bro. You are not alone. I also have Autism (in real life) and yes, I also cry over some points. I was also raging because of 60 points. My peak was 1100 and congrats, I fell. Yay!!! I am now in the 1030-1050 loop. I am also a kiddo. 11 years old.

If I offended u im sorry but i have had people literally say that to me along with a racial slur

I've been down this road of doing well, then losing several games in a row, then regaining points, only to lose them again. It sucks to work to gain points and lose them again. It's like Sisyphus pushing his rock. You peak, then all the sudden you're back at the bottom. This makes gaining points appear to be a Sisyphean feat.

Bruce Lee's philosophy was the only person you need to be better than is the person you were yesterday. Your rating doesn't reflect if you're better than you were yesterday or not, it just shows sometimes others had a better eye for possibly just a single move which was enough to give them the advantage that led to their win. Some days the same goes for you. In the end though, most people plateau at a point they do not make much progress without some coaching. At that point you get coaching, be comfortable at the rating you're at, or find some hobby that you enjoy more than chess. Maybe an online game where you can take a shot at player versus player? You can be absolutely brutal in your wins, and even if you lose, you gain points towards better gear and gain experience and tactics for the next battle.

stop talking about off topic things

@WesleySoANDSethuraman don't be off topic, and the thing you are talking about is increment. For example, 3|2. You get 2 seconds each move.

OP needs to chomp on more hanging pieces. That is the only explanation needed.

The servers are siding with the cheaters… they don’t close games that are being cheated at in real time they don’t wanna do it they simply don’t want to solve the problem

No you didn't. And yes, why do you rage over 30 - 40 points? I am dead serious. Look at my rating graph. Your rating has been stable, growing and you have been playing for ~3 years. But mine? It is a whole new different story. My rating always wobbles of brutal 200 and 300 tilts, and yes, like I said in your different forum, 40 is literally a baby compared to those giants. My rating is always going 📉📈📈📉📉📉📉📉📉📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈. And yours? Somewhat like this: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📉📉📉📈📉📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📉📉. Hope you get it.

i plateaued for a very long time at around 1100 because of my terrible rating anxiety... and idk what happened my mind just clicked when i decided to ditch is at around may-june this year. Also currently, my rating graph looks like a📈 📉📉📉📉📈📉📉📉📉. i have way more losses than wins. im pretty sure the past 20 games or so i have like a 80 percent loss rate
