My inner voice keeps interrupting my performance to tell me how bad I am. How do I have fun again?

I love acting. Or, at least, I used to. Lately, that voice in my head telling me that I'm crap has been growing. It nags at the back of my mind while I perform, robbing me of the joy of being fully present as somebody else. At times, it even threatens to take...

Would it be weird/unprofessional to reach out to a smaller music artist (whom I am a big fan of) and offer to be an actor in their future music videos?
