So, I've been playing League since early June-ish, and hit 30 relatively quickly. In August, I finally got enough champs to start doing ranked gameplay and placed silver 2 (though I feel like I was carried big time). At first, I did alright, but now I feel like I'm just getting worse and worse the longer I play the game. Where before I'd go 17/2, I'm now going 2/5 or even worse, no matter the role or champion I play. I've lost nine promo series in a row, and I've dropped to 0 LP in my division several times.

I can't help but feel like I really just don't belong in silver 2, let alone silver at all, but I want to reach gold for the skin and other end of season rewards. So is there anything I can do to improve my games?

... how can I stop getting worse? : /

I'm stuck in the exact same boat. I was finally silver 1, and went into promos for gold, but I lost promos, and then fell back into the silver 2 trap.

I guess Im only giving you general advice, but keep looking at yourself, when you feel like criticizing yourself, figure out what mistake you made and how your going to fix it, then promise never to make that mistake again. And put 100% of every effort into your games, never let go and keep fighting to the last breath to give it all you have. Think of ways to win the games you lost, and start using those ways in your next games. You need some sort of motivation to win... that'll allow you to put all your effort into the game. Me? I just hate the fact that this one friend is better than me, so I just want to catch up and beat him down xP

I've seen this case so many times, but it still interests me when I run into these cases.

First calm down man, just go play a normal game once in a while. That mentality of will I lose this next game? is what's keeping you down. First all you need to know is that there is no special trick to climbing up, but there is a special trick to stop you from falling all the way down. That trick is to just relax because the more tense you are, the more mistakes you're going to make. That's why most of us usually do better in normals because we're just doing them to have fun and there's no stress from worrying about climbing ranks. So just relax and try to keep a cool head while you play, you'll find your decision making goes way up and you'll find that it'll be way easier than before.

Next, stop trying to climb with various roles. That's what's preventing you from climbing up. Instead of playing several champions half heartedly, pick a role and learn 2-3 champs properly so you can make sure that you can carry your team instead of trying to find that short cut to your goal. Some easy champs to pick up would probably be Garen or Renekton for top. Katarina or Annie for mid. Cait ,Ashe, or Sivir for adc. Taric or Leona for support. Finally Amumu or Warwick for jungle.

Finally just relax and have fun, you're playing league to have fun, not stress yourself out and get a ulcer.

You shouldn't have started ranked until you had around 300 games played. There is a LOT you have to learn about the champions and the games before you can succeed in ranked play. That's the mistake I made when I started the game, I played ranked WAY too early. Just stop playing ranked until you feel you can carry well in Normals. Otherwise, you are going to destroy your MMR and have a really tough time climbing the ladder.
