How to go from Iron 3 to Silver + even after 4 months of trying and improving very little?

So, I got this game in December last year, placed Iron 1 and try-harded my way to get placed in Iron 3 next episode [January]. However, it seems like I am not improving and going backwards sometimes, like I have been working on my crosshair placement, however, I focus too much on getting headshots, and often due to the small size of head, can't land it. I suck at recoil control, don't know how to counter strafe, and can't use a sherrif for the life of it. Often, I get rolled by worse players than me, when I had aced a round earlier, but couldn't even get a single kill. Often, feels like I am getting lucky kills and headshots, and I am just bad or I should just quit the game.

Most of my friends who started with me, are bronze+ by now, and I am stuck here in Iron 3 to the point I quit playing ranked due to the nerves and toxicity. In all honesty, I know that it is all me, and not my teammates, and I honestly want to improve. Got Kovaaks and started aim training, but still cant hit my shots.

So, anyways, what can you all suggest for me to improve and climb the ranks faster? I main Sova and Raze. All tips are welcome. Thank you!
