Basic opening strategy needs to be tuned up. Looks like you create weaknesses with even material. Chessbrah habits on YouTube could help.

Just take a rest and do it for the next day and it will be fine, but never think about your elo and many people fall for this trap that they focus on the elo and not the game which really worsens their play by alot

I'd say don't be too concerned. I was recently concerned when I was at 850 and fell to ~700 a month ago. Now I'm 1000! Try to ask yourself before every move if it's a blunder, as that's likely how your losing most of your games. Your opponents will blunder, so if you can minimize yours, you will likely quickly increase your rating. Good luck!
