While I more or less agree with your sentiments bolt, I do have to say that I think people can learn to manage their BR better.  As JQ said, it takes patience and then more patience, but it also for alot of people takes experience.

Most people first diving into online poker have utterly no concept of what bankroll management or playing within their means, umm, means.

Often times it takes people going broke, sometimes more than a couple times, to start getting it and I actually take it as a good sign that the OP is here asking for advice.

To the OP, read the articles suggested above.  As you already said you know you have a problem with BRM and with tilt.  As Bolt said, it's all on you to step up and take responsibility for your actions and to control your emotions.  We can point you in the right directions but ultimately it is on you.  That doesn't mean we can't give advice that isn't useful, but nothing we can say is a magic cure-all.

That said the best advice I can give you beyond that is to learn how to stop when you feel yourself tilting.  I don't care how much or how little you've played that day.  STOP.  At least for a few hours if not for the entire day or for a couple of days.  Everyone is different, so how much time you need depends on you.  But learn to be able to get up, walk away, and get your head on straight before you really get yourself in trouble.
