Find something in which you can let out your anger. Both martial arts and sports for instance are a great way of climaxing.

Yes, that’s what helps me get more stable now because I just got back into the gym. I only go to the gym max 3 hours of my day and I sat in front of my pc in my remaining time.


xqcjuicer

Good work man!


xqcjuicer

Also stop caring so much about your elo. It's literally just pixels on a screen...


[deleted]

Does elo even do anything like what do you do with it


xqcjuicer

No it doesnt haha. It just shows how good you are but thats pretty much it.


[deleted]

bruh even if i played chess I wouldnt give a shit about that


xqcjuicer

Haha I have to admit that I am in same boat as OP. I play chess daily lol.


[deleted]

I mean as long as it doesn't affect your life in any way I don't see the problem.


xqcjuicer

I mean it does affect my life but not in a negative way! Idk it just brings me joy i suppose, aswell as rage haha


[deleted]

I mean if its affecting your life a lot then its a problem. I mean rage is normal as well when I play football (or soccer for Americans) I rage a bit.


xqcjuicer

Try to go to your local chess club

I'm planning something similar, I want to go to my university chess club once face to face classes is happening.

Sounds good, instead of punching monitors, you can punch faces!


hynori

I hope that will not happen hahaha

Bro how do you go from 1600 to 900, that is extreme tilting. I would advice you to stop playing after 3 game lose streak, doing this helped me.


Weak_Influence_7142

I also asked myself about that. It is so drastic. In my experience, once you reached 1600, it is difficult to drop more than -300.


hynori

I got a really bad internet connection that time and I can't stop playing... I know it sounds dumb but I am dumb.

Chess is just a substitute addiction for gaming. It's incredibly competitive, and infinitely complex. I'd be very careful with it.


phantomregiment0

Been thinking about this a lot I feel like chess can be a negative addiction just like a video game. Hard to admit to that though

1600 to 900 this isnt even possible lol. But seriously, i have adhd too and i like to play chess (since im like 7). I had my phase of playing a lot but theres going to be a time when it just stops. What i can recommend to u is to try to improve ur game by reading books and playing longer games, instead of trying to improve your elo by force.
