I am in awe of your tenacity and persistence. It sounds to me like you are a very good player indeed, and should go with your heart and never give up.
It is never easy to hear that someone else has noticed a lack of skill that we ourselves have noticed, but to me that just shows that you are under no illusions. The worry would be that you let this get the better of you.
Mentally, I think you should focus on what you HAVE achieved rather than what you haven't - did you get this far thinking that you'd never get any better?
I am by no means trying to belittle what you are going through - but don't let it get you down.
You are an inspiration to me.
Get that guitar.
best wishes
