You need a bigger bankroll.

I played my way up to $5K at 1/2 NL, playing very short-handed (HU or 3 handed, mostly), and dumped a majority of my roll in the space of a week losing coin-flips and LAG-type pushes. I dropped down to NL$100 and decided the next time I make it up to a $3,500 roll, I'd buy in half at NL200 HU or SH, so as to avoid bluffs and huge river decisions. I made an absolute killing and now have more than 30 buy ins at NL200, where I now buy in full.

It sucks to move down in limits. But I think theGrifter's advice is right on. You're posting about a tiny swing - you're clearly underbankrolled.
