Depression because of chess

You'll get better at some point, I'm sure of it. It took me forever to be just an 800.

Problem of fast chess. Beginner should never play Blitz or 10-min Rapid. Not enough time to think properly, too many moves under time pressure of course it can promote stress and bad mood and most importantly with fast chess learning progress is slow. Time control must be 15|10 at least if you hope to improve. But I'd suggest sticking with bots and not necessarily on chess.com.

Are there better bots than in Chess.com?

Some thoughts:

- If you focus too much on rating, you will inevitably experience frustration and disappointment. Because your rating can't always go up - it must go down at times, too. Focus on learning, instead, and let your rating progress on its own.

- In many of the games I looked at, you seemed to be playing too quickly - making moves in only a few seconds of time. When I was in my first year or so of chess, I was quite a slow player. I would frequently spend 10 or more minutes, for each move. I'd consider many moves, and try to consider many possible responses my opponent might play for each move.

Obviously, to think this deeply, you need to play a much longer time control - and to use your time as much as you need, not to rush through it.

- Try to review and analyze all your games. Do this deeply. Take your time. Really explore the moves and consider other moves that you could have tried. What might you have played if your opponent had played this, instead? What might your opponent have done, if you had tried another move, there?

Reviewing a game should take a long time, in my opinion. It should, ideally, take longer than it did for you to play the game originally.

- Buy a book of chess tactics, and go through it, one by one, until you're able to solve the entire book.

- Finally, don't beat yourself up. From what I've seen in your games, you have great potential. Keep at it, and you'll see that your abilities will continue to climb.

Some times discussions themes can have most important points than rankings and numbers.Play chess without time,as example,or without rank number can help as trainning.You also can play with yourself changing chair in a table ,like my Uncle,and the Swiss professor Raimund Gregorius (Jeremy Irons) ,on the movie Night train to Lisbon,(2013,Bille August) R.rated.Perhaps need to get a set.Can be awesome training.You can Consider online chess like a variant ...
or multiverse particular in Chess dimensions.Im also play in dreams.There I always win.I sure Chineses and Indians wise Ancestors considered Chess as sacred and playing without stress and full respect...so why not? I actually try to meet people off line too to play and talk about Chess seriously.Is not only a competion but a teach about patience,self superation,grow our observation capacities and control and prevent and solving situations...The other day I meet a new friend.We played,and we watch a video of Rey Enigma when played with Anatoly Karpov.

Of course. First of all, chess.com runs bots in your browser or on smartphone using local resources of your device. They do not run them on server. If you don't believe - start a game with a bot, then turn off the internet. Bot will continue playing with you. There is no information on thinking time-limits setting that chess.com is using for bots but some users have noticed that chess.com bots play weaker on weak devices. That means background processes, processor type and speed can affect the experience and these bots are simply are not stable because of that.

Under the hood, Komodo is used here on chess.com. You can download Komodo Dragon chess engine for free and use it with your chess UI software like LucasChess(R). First, not through browser wrapper it will run much much faster and you can be sure that there is no time-limit option that can make engine's performance depend on your device's performance. Second, you will get an access to so much settings, not just Skill level (0-25) like here. Personality setting (Human, Beginner, Positional etc), Dynamism, Selectivity, Variety and others. You will not see those ugly pictures of bots and will not get silly chat messages but that's even better. A bot will have ability to resign. To play Armageddon mode. You can make it adaptive. You can make any bot adaptive in LucasChess by the way. LucasChess has DOZENS of built-in engines with various strength from random-moving Monkey to "Kramnik" engine. LucasChess also can analyze games, manage database of games, explore openings etc.

Next, Chessmaster game series has very entertaining and highly configurable engine. Plus nice graphics. And rated games. But only GM version runs reliably on modern Windows.

Next, legendary Fritz, it is paid (but not very expensive) and very high-quality program and you can use any other engine with its UI, not only Fritz. It has some nice learning features. And has rated games too.

one more thing. do not play chess bots. they are stupid and do not play like a human. they must make little mistakes per move or a big one once in a while. this causes a completly stupid way how a game develops.

i played all bots till 2100. and it was always the same. at a certain point the bot made a istake which an 2000 player would never do. just rediculous

I think is a variant.I consider bots good for trainning.

Read my message above why this happens. Just don't play chess.com bots. Normally bots do not behave like that. For any programmer it's trivial to make a bot that makes no mistakes but not too much strong moves either.
