It's not that hard, in fact it's much easier than acoustic, the strings are thinner, the strings closer together and generally nearer the fretboard. Going back to acoustic can feel like playing a bass guitar to me!
You don't have to play balls to the walls distortion stuff, electric lets you do fingerstyle stuff but with the added bonus of (when you've practised it a while) adding tapping to your runs. A bit of chorus and reverb sounds beautiful with an electric.
