I'm not a writer, I'm an artist, but I totally feel you here. Everything you've said and felt up there, I've mirrored in some way.

I miss the days where I drew stuff confidently as well-- young, ignorant, and definitely everything I drew was crap, but I had fun doing it.

Now I feel afraid of posting anywhere because I feel like every thing I produced would be something I'd be judged for. I feel that the need to meet the expectations of not only others but also myself has become crippling. No matter how many times people tell me I'm a competent artist, and despite working in the industry when others my age are still in their early college years, I still feel so much stage fright when it comes to drawing, even if it's just for myself. When other people have confidence in me, I feel like it's only because they aren't aware of my shortcomings.

I guess in the end I just wanted to let you know you're not alone in feeling this way, as a writer or otherwise. That Dunning-Kruger Threshold concept is comforting to read... but hey, where I'm coming from, I'd just be afraid I'm overestimating myself by believing that applies to me. Ah, catch-22s...!
