I literally just also sometimes stay unfocused in school and loose. For me it's because I'm tired.

Hey friends,
I could really use some advice. I often find myself in good and sometimes in even winning positions against players rated 100–150 points higher than me, but then I completely fall apart and lose. I definitely have a terrible nerves issue.
People have suggested using focus mode on chess.com but I feel like that only helps temporarily. I want to actually learn how to control my mind, not just eliminate external factors. This very much needed as I obviously can't use focus mode in an OTB tournament...
Has anyone else struggled with this? How did you learn to stay calm and composed during critical moments? Any tips or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated... :-)
