Am I doing it wrong?

A few games after I got back to diamond, I had an 8 loss streak (3 games were 4v5). I managed to get back to a 4-5 win streak but lost the next game which dropped my elo by -32.

Recently I played around 20 games over a few days, I was only getting +9-12s which I thought was my punishment for that 8 loss streak. In the 20 games, I have lost maybe around 5 and each time it was -23-29. I didn't even play 150 ranked games yet and I was gaining well over 20lp per win before the loss streak.

How can I even break this stupid elo loss? At this point I don't even enjoy trying to climb because all my progress is lost with one game.

Silver 2 scrub here. I honestly don't know why your LP is going up so slow, I've played 3 games in silver 2 so far and I'm at 74 points from winning all 3. It might be because you're diamond, and it's supposed to be harder to climb further? that's my guess but I'm not a riot employee so idk. Just telling you what's happening with me for a reference.

I was getting 20lp a win when I got to diamond. It was specifically after the 8 loss streak that I started gaining half of that. What bothers me is the amount of lp that I'm losing. I don't mind only gaining 10lp if I'm going to be losing the same amount. It's almost impossible to play ranked when all your progress is gone from 1 game...
