In my go games, I have noticed a massive aversion to actually playing, because I hate my blunders too much. My advice would be, either accept that you will blunder and play anyway, or give up on playing. Blunders are part of playing, there is no avoiding them. Moreover, the more you try to avoid them, the more they hurt when they inevitably do happen.

The only viable way to play that I can think of is to embrace that blunders will happen. For me that seems to be too hard, so I don't play anymore.
