Since then every project causes me to have a nervous breakdown. I rush things, get anxious/angry/sad at the slightest inconveniences, am overloaded with anxiety for failing, always fuck up in some slight way which causes me to get angry at myself.

Any1 here experience the same? What do? I just did a project on my car, restoring the spare wheel boot. One of the plastic hinges broke off and I fashioned a new one out of plastic. Caught myself entering a nervous breakdown shortly after starting. Had to sit myself down, accept that I need to take the time to do this thing and let myself try to enjoy it. Job is now complete and it was fun. Heat bended the plastic hinge and glued it in place.
