Hope the slump doesn't carry on for too long, looks ike you're a winning player so shouldn't take too long to climb out of the downswing. I totally agree.

My win rate over the past 40k or so hands (all I have in PT) is 3.5 BB/100. I think there's some merit in looking at win rates over shorter periods (especially when changing limits or games or just trying something new) but definitely never rely on a small sample size. This goes double for games like 6-Max where variance is expected to be higher than average. Very true, thanks! My win rate over the past 40k or so hands (all I have in PT) is 3.5 BB/100.

Look on the brightside, at least your BB/100 for the month was positive, better than at least 90% of the other players out there!
