Am I supposed to quit

Am I supposed to quit

I am seriously getting tired of chess. Every time I decide to play chess.com I just know that I will lose 5 matches in a row. I went from 900 to 750 because of this nonsense. I've watched tons and tons of videos and tips like analyze games or use this opening or know what the opponent wants but it just doesn't work. It's really annoying at this point. I used to dominate my school in chess but ever since last year my chess comprehension decided to give up on me. I tried taking a break and all of that but it just doesn't work. I should just quit altogether.

Basically, my friend got to go to nationals in chess which made me feel envy and jealousy because he was literally struggling with 300 elo games a month ago. This is one of the facts that made me push so hard that when I lose I go rogue (more like currently i wasnt that hard on myself a couple months ago). Although, this is not the main point as to why I am so fes up with chess. 2 years ago, I was absolutely insane at chess to the point where no one could beat me. Ever since last year, I dont know how or why I lost all my knowledge about chess.
