If a game is too easy, I get down because I feel like there's no challenge and I might as well not even be playing it. If it's too hard, I get down because I can't do it and I feel inadequate for failing and worthless.

What do?

Do you think the rest of us beat hard games immediately the first time we play them? Of course challenges make you fail at first, that's the whole point of a challenge. And why it's rewarding to overcome them: you feel like you've enhanced yourself as an individual. If you can't deal with failing at first, then why play games at all? There's tons of other rewarding hobbies where you can't fail.

Like? You can fail, or be suboptimal, at anything.

There's all sorts of creative projects where it's hard to "fail".

PLay Dark Souls and Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic on hard mode.

Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic is as challenging as you make it. Do you want unlimited cash, permanent summer, and happy citizens? Just a few settings changes on the map making menu. What about a hardcore run on an island archipelago with barely enough resources to scrape by? Also possible. The sense of progression on hard difficulty is very satisfying and engaging, especially once you get a supply chain going and multiple cities.

For hard games, just grind.
What hard and easy games have you played? Which was the last time you felt the difficulty just right/finished a game/enjoyed a game?
