Is the marriage still valid if the wife writes talaaq thrice to her husband.during internet chatting due to anger during a fight and written not intentionally

Answer

In principle, women do not have autonomy to issue Talaaq. (Shaami vol.3 pg.190; HM Saeed)

Therefore, by you issuing Talaaq to your husband, it is not valid.
