Losing it

Did pretty well over the start of my first year. Got a lot of positive feedback, contributed to big projects, and built a good reputation. However, over the last few weeks, I feel like I'm slipping, messing up simple shit like comps outputs / footnotes again. Feel like haven't progressed at all, even when I know that's (probably) not true. Just so frustrated at myself + feel like I'm going to lose my positive reputation (not shooting for top bucket, just want to be at least mid you know). Would love any advice / commiserations here, or just appreciate you reading my vent. Fuck, wish I could just care less lol

Assuming you've been told this, but printing the book out and reviewing it as a physical copy is a great tool for catching errors.
