Yep. So basically I realized rating wasnt everything and that I should improve. I'm not really used to bullet anymore, because I really can't think as fast as I used to so I lose on time a lot. So I've started playing long time controls like 5 min and 3 min.

Congratulations! Just don’t fall into the cycle of quitting accounts and opening new ones like so many players…

(I know what it’s like.)

"I should improve." ++ To improve play 15|10 rapid and analyse your losses.

"I'm not really used to bullet anymore, because I really can't think as fast"
++ Bullet is not about thinking fast, but about moving fast.

"I lose on time a lot" ++ To avoid losing on time, play with increment.
That gives you time to win a won position or draw a drawn position.

"So I've started playing long time controls like 5 min and 3 min."
++ That is still speed chess, i.e. blitz. A long time control is 15|10 rapid.

Blitz is for fun, rapid is to improve.
