Stuck... now what?

Ok so my roll is $1,380. I consistently beat .5/1 and 1/2 at PP, by no means a great feat, but the winnings I get there are not really significant to my roll anymore. In addition I started playing poker to make real money, however I am still affected by the 2/4 stakes. I fire up a 2/4 table, have AK fizzle 3 times, my QQ get rivered and all the sudden I'm down $80 and I'm like "AHHHHH!!!! 80 bucks!"

What's the answer? I mean, I'm tired of grinding out a few bucks a night at micros and apparently don't have the mental resolve to play 2/4. Should I just give up on "serious" poker and play for fun every now and then?

Should I just become a NL tourney player (how I originally got into hold em of course)? What? Anyone else dealing with this sort of thing?
