Why i think im a dumbest person alive
Sort:
Its been months since i played chess.But i got the feeling that I didn’t learn anything.Even when my opponents breaks the important principles of the game to win.He still wins.For example is Nelson the bot.He brings his queen out early,yet he still beat me like he wasn’t even trying.I learned like everything,Openings,endgames,tactics,strategy,blah blah blah.I applied those to my games,yet i still lost.But when they does it,they won!What did i do wrong?
Tried my best doing puzzles,but my stupidest brain in the world just deactivates.And this is like the 25th time!Overall i was thinking that chess makes you more stupid.The more i play,the truer the statement becomes

Looking at your puzzle rating you’ve climbed steadily to a very respectable 1000+ rating, looks like good steady progress to me.
Try playing a little more daily games just one at a time is fine. You can then spend plenty of time per move. Don’t forget it’s a game enjoy playing ☺️

I spent 1 month for 1000,others spent like 2 weeks!
I say don't pay attention to what others do. There will always be people doing things faster, and lots more people doing things a lot slower! Everything is relative. (Also, Nelson is a jerk.) 
After watching some grandmasters over the last month, I've learned: Openings don't really matter so much: a strong player can start with the worst opening as a challenge, and still win. Even "Principles" don't matter so much, as there are always exceptions.
Play just 2 or 3 full games a day and study them. When you play: Anticipate whether you're going to immediately regret making the move you WANT to make. (Ask yourself if your king could be put in check, or if you can check the enemy king. Then see if your pieces are protected, or if they're under threat. Then check the space you're about to move into.)
After each game, run the Game Report and see which moves could have been better, and what would have been best. Keep doing this and you'll see your game improving over time.
Good luck!
"Sometimes chess feels like you are studying for a Science test, you walk in and it's History, you panic, you spend the first half-hour thinking 'oh my god what am I going to do', and then scribble down the wrong answers in the latter half."

Yea unless you're hoping to be a top grandmaster or world champion one day, the only competition that really matters is with yourself. Be better than you were a month ago or a year ago, that's progress, don't worry about what other people are doing. I hope to get my rapid rating to 1600 this year from about 1450 now. And 1600 is good, it's ok, but to top players I would still be pretty rubbish and very easy to beat. But it's ok, to me 1600 would be good, would represent real improvement.
Hit the nail on the head. 800 rating implies you know how the pieces move. Anything less after months of playing implies you are correct. Don't feel bad you join a large crew who also have learning disabilities, it's nothing to be ashamed of.
Its more than just a “learning disability”.Im being beaten by some 500 ish guys!Puzzle rating doesn’t matter,Training doesn’t matter.I never learn!
I dunno why!I wish i have a brain transplant for better thinking.Im tired of my current one
Due to my “3 puzzles a day rule”,I can’t train properly!This is the stupidest thing!And not even an average idiot does that!
i dont even know how to play chess
I'm sure you can't be that bad. I myself couldn't pass 300 rating in any time control for almost two months.
Oh yeah I am not bad,IM WORSE
Don't worry about it, learn, study, and stuff. I also say study endgames and learn how to respond to certain openings. Also, make every move very carefully. If you want to get much better get a coach to teach you.
I have none,none of my irl friends are,none of my teacher are coaches
But PLZ dont do drugs... use ICBM's (⌐■_■)... or flip the chess board. Also if you don't feel like using these tactics take up hacking
I ran out of practical ideas

Be patient. It takes time and practice. You'll get it, if you just hang in there.
