Attempted redemption and how to improve behavior.

Firstly, I'm going to start off by saying yes, I am an extremely toxic player. I consider myself to be one of the worst there is in the whole game. A small excerpt from what lead to the perma ban of this account:

TRIGGER WARNING

"The Good Kush: meh, i quit when this autistic piece of shit nami refused to lane bot anymore The Good Kush: because i told her to stop going aggro The Good Kush: and let me farm The Good Kush: idgaf The Good Kush: you deserve it The Good Kush: worthless retard The Good Kush: go lay under a bus"

At this point I was down nearly 50 CS, 3 kills and my support was refusing to lane with me despite not acting in an inflammatory manner before hand, but rather requesting that she played more passive and allowed me to attempt to farm up so I could participate in the mid game.

I don't mean to be this way, honestly. I understand that people have bad games, and that's just part of life. There is always going to be a loser, and you can always play more games to regain your LP (except in my case where my account has been permanently banned and I lost all $700 of skins I owned)

I'm basically looking for tips to keep a level head in-game. After the game I can blow it off, but in the heat of the moment I can't help but go off on people. I've tried muting and that doesn't help, I still end up with a 2 week suspension or chat restriction for not communicating, which prevents me from explaining myself in a mild mannered way / congratulating my teammates / asking for buffs and as such leads to anger and eventually flame because I cannot properly relay my intentions.

It seems like you don't know how to use chat properly! You should only be using it to strategize with your team to win. I mean you seem to understand why it was wrong but just can handle dealing with it. Sometimes taking a break something short like a couple mins in between games or even a couple days/weeks/months could help!

Keep your hand off the ENTER key.

Simple as that.

No seriously, there is no magic trick. It doesn't matter what self-styled "behaviour coaches" and hobby-psychologists will tell you here on the board...their advice may be well and good, but when the flint hits the steel, and you find yourself in a situation that makes you tilt again (and yes, this will happen)...

...in the end, it boils down to you, and your ability, or lack thereof, to not flame.
