the never ending cycle that prevents me from improving ᵒᵛᵉʳᵃˡˡ

The usual advice is you should play classical to improve your chess (pattern recognition, tactics and strategy etc) and then playing blitz (which relies more on intuition and general principles and less on calculation) should improve. I do find it takes a few games at blitz to re-adapt to the limited time you have.
i tool have a cycle that prevents me to improve...........in bullet
if i try to win on time, i make blunders alot and lose early
if i try to win by checkmate, i lose on time
it happened a lot in rated bullet games. after several times playing bullet with bots, i don't think i have made significant improvement

If I practice classical, I get worse at blitz. If I practice blitz, I get worse at classical. NEVER ENDING CYCLE
An important question is: how are you studying?
Keep in mind that playing (at any time control) is not part of studying ...
Less playing, more reading.
look at my match history..... i usually just play 1 to 3 games per day and most of the other time is puzzles and reading my chess book

i think analyzing the game does count as studying.... but anyways, i read my chess book and i do puzzles.

Analyzing is definitely helpful.
As a general rule, I believe a player should spend more time studying than they do playing. (If they want to maximize their improvement, that is.)
Most players, unfortunately, do the opposite.
