I too have been studying too much. I let the books rule my head & felt that I was losing confidence in my feelings for the cards when I would make stupid moves & lose! 
But now I take deep breaths, sit out a hand or two, remember that I love poker & it's JUST a game...and go on! I try NOT to play at all when I'm 'on tilt'!:rolleyes: But things happen in poker...I was reminded by a very good player & friend that 'poker is a cruel game'...and it can be just that! You win some & you lose some...hopefully it averages out in your favor though! 
I'm only in my 10th week EVER playing poker...was thrown into the deep end of the pool without a life preserver by the above friend...and have alternately been sinking & swimming since:eek: ! But, I've also burst through the bubble once...and can feel the taste of 'winning' in my mouth!:D  
Play for the FUN...don't play with your own money unless you're prepared to lose it if you feel confidence in yourself is slipping...step back & relax...whatever it takes to get the JOY back in your game! Oh, yes...don't EVER stop learning or trying to better yourself in any way! Best of luck...unless you're my rival(LOL)...see you around...on the felts & here at CC!:D
