I totally get this! When I was learning to handle tower bells I was twitchy and anxious and it just made everything worse. I did eventually get through this, and now I like (and miss) tower bells.
I learned to drive a car at the age of 33 after moving to the midwest, and there were absolutely moments in my driving lessons where I was telling myself "I can ring Plain Bob Major, I can do this!"
Handbells I am not very good at, but I lack practice. ("I have to keep track of 2 bells now, and the bells don't have momentum?") When ringing on virtual bells (which is pretty much all I do now, I need to actually make plans to get to a tower sometimes) I'd rather ring 1 bell than 2.

Enjoy the AGM (assuming that's where you're at)!
