Really bad session, what next?

After grinding the NL4 for what felt like an eternity I made it to £200 and started playing NL10. Friday I was at £232 and by Saturday afternoon I was up to £260. After a catastrophic Saturday evening I was back to £210 and then this morning I lost another £25 meaning I have £185 now.

Much of this was from bad play and a serious case of "can't-fold-top-pair-itis" and a couple of buy ins were lost to coolers. In terms of bankroll management what is my best respons to this?

Should I go back to NL4 and win back the £25 that I lost this morning or better to keep at the NL10 and hope the variance will even itself out?

    I haven't played cash in a while but the last time I did I found dropping down to NL8 to be very profitable as the standard seemed super awful like NL4 but double the money, NL10 can also be great but there were always a lot of nitty tag tables for my liking and finding a decent bad table was tough.

    Id drop down to NL8 mate to be on the safe side.
    Have a stab at a couple £3.30-£5 DYM's aswell to break up your game abit if cash isnt going your way,
    that should bring you up a bit.
    If you fall lower than £150 id drop another level and work your way from there.
    Let me know how it goes for you.
