While this isn't a strict question on how to improve but it's something that started bugging me for a while

​

I'm relatively new to fighting games (started late 2017) and picked up xrd very recently. I wanted to ask, did any of you feel so helpless starting off in this game? I've been playing for roughly 2 months and it's been rough. I know I should put in more work to get better and I'm trying but all the losses started piling on me given I haven't won a single game at locals since I started. I go to locals, get beaten up and note down what went wrong, what I'm losing to and what not. Go back home to lab and then not much changes. It feels like I just can't grasp the game? I'm not sure how to recover from this broken spirit, no game broke me like this before (played other competitive stuff before). I'm really loving the game and even when I lose I'm usually having a blast but it all piles up you know? I'm not sure what I'm trying to get to with this really but I needed to get it off my chest and maybe know that I'm not alone in this. Didn't want to mention it to locals to not sound like a whiny bitch or whatever.
