How to keep chess a healthy experience, even while losing a lot?

I was off to a good start, but then lost a number of games to players who were playing many times better then their rank, now I'm losing, due to just blunder after blunder, I feel disconnected from the game, because I don't want to put heavy effort into games only to lose my points to players using outside help just enough to give themselves a edge that is either based in time or position which is impossible to be spotted by anti-cheat system. Now I keep getting angry at the game it isn't fun and I'm suddenly playing absolutely terrible chess and just thinking about quitting the game altogether. At least online chess.

I don't mind losing to a good player, sometimes I even smile and say wow that was a incredible plan there. The problem starts when their putting out brilliant moves and best moves while also using very little time and are below 1000 elo.

If you think they're cheating report them. Get higher rated players to critique your games. Blunder-proof your games by looking where your pieces could go are safe squares. Do puzzles. Others will have more advice. Maybe take a break from the game.

It's best to stop for a while if you're performing badly.

I get that feeling of "Omg I'm so stupid" a lot too. Then I come back after a bit and knock it out of the park for a hot minute, and the cycle continues.

Your rating is not your self-worth. It reflects your performance in a set of games under specific conditions — not your intelligence, value, or potential. Sometimes people cheat. Sometimes you blunder. Sometimes it's just a bad day. That doesn’t define you.

you cant control it man...when i loose sometimes i want to enter the monitor and teleport in my enemies house and cause big trouble...i really get mad sometimes..its the whole philosophy of the game that if you loose to someone you are more stupid than him..

currently playing the Princeton Open, i just had the single worst tournament day of my life. had 5 hours of sleep maybe, yet somehow, i played a fellow NM and a FM and outplayed them both for most of the game. The former, i got a rook pawn and rook vs queen endgame. Should have won that easily and just when i win the A pawn, it is the 1 in 100 position where the rook can force stalemate or perpetual on a queen! 2nd game, my opponent feel to like 20 moves of opening prep and burned almost all their time and just when i was a good 8 moves away from cleanup, i blunder like a class player. Even the FM coudnt believe his luck!
first 2 hours i was in a daze. but after a good meal, its all good. Must further work on my consistency and sleep in these big events. 2.5 of 7 isnt terrible for an open section where im only #70 out of 100 in rating with still 2 rounds to go. if i end up with 4/9 im content.
Being a great chess players requires significant perseverance. You must be able to dust yourself off and try again. The worst loses are often the most instructive. Im looking forward to Chicago open next month. u2300 will feel like a breeze compared to all these 2400's i been playing , esp if i get a hang on my sleep!
treat every loss as a learning experience. You didnt lose a game, you found x never of ways to not win. when you feel especially down, remember you are suffering over losing a board game and people out there actually have problems and tragedies to endure.

many of my friends are there rn
