YouTube made me weaker

When I started the game a month ago without knowing anything besides moving the pieces I easily got to 1300 rating in Blitz 7 days of playing. Now, I feel I've lost my unpredictability in my games after watching a bunch of YouTube Shorts and others playing. I can't even reach 1300+ in a month its frustrating.

I lose easily to players that spams all their pieces especially pawns without thinking in Blitz.

Don’t watch shorts of others playing, watch the normal videos that explain strategies, tactics, openings, etc… YouTube helped me a lot in improving.

One more things that help me. I no longer do puzzle, lesson or videos. I only recommend magnus trainer app subscription for one month to understand how top players thinks.

Yeah. I realize I keep making several obvious blunders probably because I played a lot of games in a short amount of time that my mind is so tired but YouTube videos and shorts still ruined a lot of my games as I likely to imitate their moves. Btw where did you see that 85.5% I can't find it.
