Too Nervous To Play

sorry if this is a dumb post, but i'm a pretty new player even though i've been interested in the game for a while now and i want to try to get better at the game (especially victim). i just can't help but feel like i'll be completely destroyed every time i play, and i can barely get myself to even start a match. have any of you had similar experiences? do you have any tips? thanks!

edit: thank you all so much for the help! i'm starting to feel a lot better about playing, i just need to figure out what character's right for me and keep improving :)
