Hon, we all feel this way. You might not believe me, but it's true. I happen to know of a certain HP author (no names) whose work is breathtakingly spectacular, but her self esteem is appalling. Writing is such a personal thing - and a lifeblood/motivational force for so many of us - that when it's not going well, we tend to react very badly (and yeah, I'm talking about me. :D).
Writing should be done for the love of it. If it's become a chore, take a break. Because eventually you'll grow to hate creative pursuits and you'll be (more) miserable. Take a step back, try something new. It'll come back to you, I promise.
Hehehehe, this has been as much a peptalk for me as I intend it to be for you. ::laughs::
