I used to be a really good player winning over 65% HU and cashing in most of my SNGs and make lots of money...lately...i suck...i had a bad streak started playing out of my BR and started going on tilt often, losing concentration, and losing money...deciding to quit poker cuz i hate it...all it does to me now is stress me out and get me depressed...still up over 10k in poker and wanna leave it that way..gonna buy a car and drive it off the bridge...u can check my stats to see my terrible run on sharkscope.com...my 2 accounts are poopsik1962 and gabethekid...u can see how good i used to be and how crappy i am now...honestly have no clue what happened...anyone got ideas or advice plz give me some cuz im soo fkn depressed right now.

well you had pretty steep goals..considering the variance in SNG, and HU games...you had to know a big downswing would come eventually.

competition is getting better.

oh, and get a used Neon, too many of them operating on the road anyway.

Perspective and preparation.

If you get tight, if the game gets to be too important, if you play because you HAVE to instead of because you WANT to - you are not going to get into your "zone" and will fail.

Good for you. Most players should quit. Most are too short-sighted to do so.
