Same experience, I thought I had things figured out but after a few weeks struggling with OCaml I felt like a complete retard :-) But it was an eye opener in some way on how to write programs in a different way. I think OCaml also suffers a bit the same problem as C++ does. You need to learn quite a lot to be able to read others code. There are many advanced concepts with cryptic syntax that is hard to search for on the net.
