I’ve been stuck at 1500 in rapid for 5 months. How can I get to 1600 in rapid?

Take your time on each move, slow down. Write the move down if necessary. Focus your opening repertoire; one opening as white and one response per every one of white's openings as black. At your level, you should be able to out prepare your opponent in the opening and win outright. And remember to treat every opponent both seriously (never relax and pretend that they aren't out for a win) and contemptuously (everyone is a beginner up until the mid-2000s, no one is really in control of the situation at any point, even though they might make good moves). Beyond that, make sure to do puzzles to improve your tactical ability. Never give up!

Start sacrificing pawns to where your enemy castle that is how i got to 1850

You have not officially been "stuck" until it's a year.
