I know that tilting is something that one has to solve by themselves but I am so desperate that anything you think will help I am willing to pay $ for. Please send me a PM and we can discuss this further.
TY

Whatever I will do this free.

Take a deep breath.
Listen to calm music.
Leave the tables (if you are playing cash).
Throw a pillow so it doesn't damage anything.
Punch something soft (so you can't hurt yourself)

There some things to try.

Go take a shower and decide not to tilt.

The end

I'll settle for $50, which is a bargain considering the thousands you'll still have to your name if you follow these instructions whenever you feel upset.

Is your problem

a) to realize you are tilting or likely to tilt ?
b) to make yourself stop playing when you tilt ?
c) to find a way to de-tilt so that you can keep playing ?

if you answered a), you may want to look at biofeedback devices, although this is largely unexplored in the context of poker.

for b), just do it. If you body doesn't submit to your conscious mind, consult a psychologist.

for c), take a nap, exercise, shower ot whatever works for you. Maybe just wait a little.

Another option is to avoid situations that you know are likely to trigger tilt. For instance you might choose to play lower because the monetary fluctuations will not affect you much. I know that I usually have to stop playing after I lose a buy-in at 25/50 NL, although it doesn't affect me much at 3/6 NL. Or you can try to avoid neutral ev - high variance plays because of the implied tilt odds, which will generally mean play a little more like a nit.

In the vein of avoiding tilt in the first place, another thing is to try to look ahead by forecasting possible outcomes of a move ahead of time.

If you imagine that your good hand might still lose to a cooler before it actually happens, or that if your bet gets reraised you have to fold, you ensure that the information is processed by your cortex rather than your amygdalae.

The amygdala is a region of the brain that responds to threats, emergencies etc. It's pretty good to react to danger quickly, but doesn't play poker as well as your cortex...
