Sounds like you have body dysmorphia. You should really look for some help in dealing with that.

I don't know how to fix that sort of stuff but I feel like if you at least understand that your own mind is sandbagging you constantly, it might help a little. Just remember it is not telling you the truth about how you look whenever you think like that.

Nah, I'm on top of it. I had a real struggle putting the brakes on my last cut. I dropped a kilo(2lbs) a week for 12 weeks and when it came to an end I was like "Number must keep dropping! Number cant go back up!" and it took a few weeks for me to calm down and get back to normal eating. Doesnt help that I have addict wiring in my brain.

I had a lot of empathy for teenage girls for a few weeks, I was SO CLOSE to having visible abs but I was hitting burnout hard and needed to go back to maintenance for a bit.
