Unhappy Idle issues 93 civic ex D16z6

-when engine is cold it starts up and idles high, around 1500 rpm and as it warms up the idle goes down, at running temp the idle is just above the 0 line but seems fine-ish it'll die at random times tho when i have to come to a stop.

-at night it runs worse, more over the more things on, ie headlights, running lights, heater fan, brake lights etc make it idle lower, when i get home and turn off the headlights the idle goes up slightly, let off the brake, goes up a little more.

wondering if it could be related to the grounds at all? it never wants to start up right away, it struggles slightly but always cold starts, starting it warm is deff a struggle tho, it'll start then die after a few seconds.

i have no idea where to start with this kind of issue and my more mechanically inclined friends havnt been able to figure it out either, so im hoping someone out there on the forum has an idea of what the issue could be. thanks in advance for any help!
