Analyze your losses and find out why!

When I was on boner pills, all the blood left my brain and I kept losing at chess. Then I stopped and I won.

maybe he is not good enough to analyze-needed boner pills for something that small lol

it's hard to analyse with this dumb 1 analysis per week rule.

Why are you loosing?

Take maybe your last 10 games, look at them, Are you coming out of the opening behind, are you missing combinations you should be seeing? Are you blowing your end games? Take a very cold look at your play, be as objective as possible.

You can Analyse your games reasonably well with SCID and the Engine of your choice, I like SCID because it gives you more than one line and you can check out canidate moves. 

Also remember Coach Lombardy, "Winning is a Habit, but so is Loosing" maybe take some time, on Spark Chess or one of the other more Rookie oriented sites; knock a few heads get your rythem going again, be your own coach for a moment.

I'm always at odds why people expect an easy journey to a higher rating. The rating system is a pyramid. It will become more difficult to increase it as you progress - so ... yes you're bound to lose a lot of games in a row at some point.

You don't have to analyze on chess.com, I use ChessBase 12 and Stockfish 7 for example
