How to untilt?

real advice is tilt will never be super easy, i have gained over 50 points, proceeding to lose over a 100 or more and then keep getting back to it later on. the pace in which it happens is different for everyone but the emotions are relatively the same being frustrating and sad. for me what i do is i just use that negativity as a drive having those perfect streaks and games of pure brutality, winning like dozens of matches and games against people in my level to be able to get back up.

for you however, i can't quite recommend much as not only are we different but our personalities also can apply to our chess games in how we react and perceive the things we see. i think definitely since your more positive, studying, and work hard it can seem a bit more painful as you are probably like "why aren't my efforts paying off" which does seem that way a lot for many people but the upside is again eventually you will climb back to the rating you had.

Although you're far beyond me (or where I'll ever be, I'm sure) you may just have too many games going at once.  Just a thought from the patzer gallery...  wink

eh in class rn and i barely do 5 minutes, kinda am bored or simply don't prefer slow time controls unless its OTB cause then that feels much more bearable and cooler. last time i played 5 minutes was the USCF members chess club getting used to that time control and kinda like it but only cause its USCF rated and feels like a legit tournament. realistically i only am liking online 3 mins while OTB either 3 mins but mostly 3+2 especially in the OPEN tournament i go, its very fun

Ah, yes. I see now. Tilt is all about your state of mind, and I'm sure that @PsychologyKnight knows what he's doing. He has the word "psychology" in his username, and a brain in his profile picture. Surely he must be an expert.

I highly recommend the book "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz.  It will change your life and its a short read.  I read it in one sitting in one evening.
