If I lose, I switch to another site after a short break.

It depends on what you mean. Take a break from poker in general, or during a tournament or cash game? If during a tournament, then you need to take a short break: 1. If you feel that you have begun to play a game that is not your own; 2. tired and need to warm up; 3 visit the toilet)

You need to take a break from the tables when you are unlucky for a long time, you did not get enough sleep, if someone frayed your nerves or you are drunk, in these moments of life it is better not to play.

I need to stop the game when I lose concentration and feel sleepy.

A little break often helps me if the game doesn't add up. Personally, it works for me, I come back after a while and start winning

When you go on tilt and play to try to recoup your previous losses, including increasing the buy-in, it's time to take a break and review what you're doing wrong and correct it.

In person for a maximum of 3 hours, if you are not having a good day, much less, online every 2 hours I try to rest for 20 minutes I watch a comedy movie, in addition to the breaks. (that's in case you can't sign me in a tournament)

I think that after 2 hours of play it is necessary to pause for at least 20 minutes. With this, the mind improves its reasoning after a short break.
