How much money are you depositing (this would be called your bankroll).
Unless you deposited a minimum of $200, preferrably $300 then you shouldnt be playing 10NL.

If youre learning, why have you started at that level, try some SnG or 2NL.

If you want specific help, be morer specific about your problems and post some hand histories. Cheers

The easiest route to profitability at the micros is to play ABC poker. There's always plenty of money given away by players who make poor plays. Some of it will naturally come your way. Give less back, and presto... you're profitable.

Sounds like you should drop down to the lowest level available at your site until you have the basics sorted and you are winning.

Try reading something about bankroll management and playing some private freerolls with prize good, and SNG tournaments with small buy-in, this is my tip ..

Read beginner poker book. Will bind things together better. Reading bits and pieces about poker may leave you with more questions rather than answers.

Heres the secret... it takes time, dedication and lots of hands. i think almost everyone starts out losing, you have to pay to learn just like anything else. Just hang in there and things will become more clear.

One thing i saw my friends and myself doing when we started playing poker was not hitting the fold button that oftean.. Practice ur folding, Play the good hands. The time that i limp is when im on big blind and noone raise thats when i want to see the flop.

It's not difficult to start beating the lowest stakes quickly. The two things you need most are an understanding of what constitutes an ABC style and enough self-discipline to play it.

Most people lose starting out because they fall short on one or both of the above, together with the fact that most people lose, period,

Definitely play tight, but expect most opponents to play loose. They Will hit some crazy stuff and mirical rivers may seem common. Maybe download a free trial of poker tracker. Shoot for value more and be careful when and who you bluff. Try to understand how and why each opponent is playing the game; it will help you to play against them better. Maybe read some math based poker advice.

Play full ring, only play AK, AQ, and TT+, and if you cant make money quit forever.y

Good idea.
I only can give one suggestion. Maybe that is also my big problem.
When you have aa kk or even two pair like aq ak. If you get reraise and they even bet big on turn or river. No matter how bad this guy is, you really need to consider fold.
