Hello Ghost5: Yes, the Skeezyks can relate to this... especially when I'm doing something I believe I should be good at. For instance, I've been a home bread baker for many years. I feel I should be an expert by now! If one of my breads doesn't turn out just about perfect, I berate myself up one side & down the other, as the saying goes. How could I have been doing this all these years & still turn out a failure like this! I try to be philosophical about it... but inside... I just burn with self-hatred & anger.
