I'll try out your technique a few times; sounds kind of interesting. I don't think I have significant problems with learned helplessness. My reaction to observing that I'm not doing very well at something is to ask "what should I be doing instead?"
Note that, for the reasons I outlined, that isn't good Bayesian evidence that you actually don't. ;-)
If an area has been deleted from your map, you wouldn't be expected to notice unless something forced you to compare your map with the territory in that area.
That being said, some people seem vastly less prone to it than others, so it's certainly plausible that you might be one of those people. OTOH, those people don't have a lot of "ugh" fields either.
