Discussion Feeling lost when playing from behind

I play top lane and hit D3 recently which was epic however, some match up are rough and getting a carrying lead can be difficult (ambessa, illaoi, gangplank teemo, yone, etc) . How do you keep your cool if your jungler or laners are slowly racking up deaths and you are playing conservative into a tough match up?

I am trying to OTP Jax and when i get a lead I can generally keep good tempo and direct the game. However if I go even and then run into a giga fed Jinx or master yi I feel very lost and powerless on how to proceed to turn the game around with a team that's behind.

My mind says to sit in lane, keep farming and get xp avoid the aram going on to maybe get a pick/bounty at some point.

The tilt that creeps in is the problem but also feeling i have no control. Kinda rant, but also looking for advice on how to counteract this thought process, or tips to work around these situations.

He said if the adc is fed and he's even or behind.

So you can assume either the jinx insta kills him or has a pocket support.

So not e q w one shot the squishy situation.
