A question about the ranking system

I didn't really know where else to put this but if any one can answer my question it would be very helpful. So when I reached Gold 5 along time ago I got up to 20 LP then had an AFK on my team so we lost. Now I am back to 0 LP and already lost a game. I've been scared to play ranked since because I don't know if I will get demoted or not. My question is, how many games do I have to lose at 0 LP to get demoted back to Silver 1 if I have already lost one game?

You get 10 games of demotion shielding when entering a new Tier (such as Gold V), and 3 when just going up a division. https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/204010760-Ranked-Play-FAQ#h6q2

Before the client update, there would be a notification on your profile saying you're in danger of demotion, but I haven't been close enough to see if it shows with the new one that I remember; https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/201915080/warning.jpg https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/201915090/warning2.jpg
