Seems like you really answered your own question. Its seems we constantly hear the same story...a $5 freeroll win that gets built up to a couple hundred dollars and then busto.
 
The main problem is forgetting how much hard work you put into building up your BR in the first place. When you have $200 and are grinding, a day where you end up down seems like a failure. So you end up trying to make that money back and just end up even for the day. Well a $20 loss turns to $50, then $100, etc. 
 
I have fallen victim to this myself and can see the reason why people tilt away entire BRs. You try to win back a days losses and it works. You say to yourself, "wow that was dumb, I won't do that again". But then next time you are stuck you find yourself playing out of your BR to win it back quick.
 
Just remember that your poker BR is everything and it is the overall status of your BR that matters, not the daily swings. Life is one big poker session and you must treat it that way. Tomorrow is always there, so if you have a losing/bad day, don't worry about it and focus on tomorrow.
