What really opened my eyes to how much tilt has affected my game is the results I get when I'm not tilted. This has been a much bigger problem for me than I had realized, when I'm tilted I tend to both tighten up way too much and I also get tunnel vision, meaning I'm no longer paying attention to anything beyond my hole cards.
 
It's been about 8 months since I started playing seriously, and one significant issue that I've had is not being able to quit when I'm behind and on tilt, because I'm trying to get back to where I was when I started the session. If you're tilted, and keep on playing to try to get your bankroll back to where you started, you are basically tossing the money down the rat hole because the tilt and the losing keep reinforcing each other.

You're way ahead of many others though, because you're able to admit that you've been on tilt and that it's causing you problems. A lot of people just start ranting about bad beats and insisting that online poker is rigged.
