[Closed] variance? Doubt it

Hi, I hoped I would never write in this section, but...
I moved 2 days ago to NL15.
Played 2k hands and already lost 120$....
I mean, thats like 8 buyins///and all bad ones....
My cont bets always get called.
AK(s) gets reraised/called, and blank flop/turn/river is already waiting me.
My AA got cracked 3 times, once by 37s on the flop, and once with AJs with all in preflop.
My set of 8s turned to a fullhouse, just to be beaten off a better fullhouse as the river card double paired the board.
And so on........
Perhaps I remember only the bad beats.
I currently have 22VPIP/9PFR/3TAF which is far from perfect for a TAG.
Also, Im In a sort of a tired and not caring tilt, i just cant let go of a hand.
Should I take a break?

I didn't know NL15 even exists.

8 buyins in 2k hands is not small, but it's also nothing, I'm sure everyone here has had much worse swings.

Yes, you are result orientated here.

Looks like you've got a lot of room for improvement there. This is way too passive (especially if you 6-max) and slightly loose (or way loose if you play full ring).

Should I take a break?

Yes, study some article/post hands.
