  • It's not normal but it is understandable.
    It sounds like you may have control issues and an excess of pressure applies to yourself. It also sounds as if you have very low self-esteem.

    Please do something to improve your self-esteem. A person with healthy self-esteem may not want to make mistakes either, but is not afraid to be wrong because they are humble enough to admit that they are wrong, in other words, their ego isn't tied into whether or not others see them as perfect, or the most intelligent of the bunch.

    You need to relax. It's ok to make mistakes and it is ok to be wrong. Accept that and learn not to attach your self-worth to how others feel about you (which is difficult and we all do it to some extent) and you will be fine.
