Feeling dumb and loser

I am a frontend developer who joined a startup last year when it was in a very early stage. I created V1 and at that time there were almost 8-10 backend developers while I was the only person handling the frontend. There was a lot of work, bugs, and pressure. With less than two years of experience, I struggled to deliver many things on time. I also lost my credibility got harsh words from the CTO and damaged my reputation with the CEO, CTO and other team members. Even my colleagues seem to think I am not that smart I can see it in their eyes and words. I am getting good money, but there is no respect or enjoyment. I have never failed this badly in my life when it comes to delivering tasks or anything else. I just couldn't handle the pressure of delivering V1 of our product. I had built the frontend for the MVP perfectly, but when it came to V1, I messed up so badly. Since I was the only frontend guy the CTO lost confidence in me. But I know I can do things perfectly and I am doing them now. Still, I don’t feel good these days and I don’t feel comfortable in the office. I have no intention of leaving this job since it’s the perfect job for me with the best pay and the market is also tough right now. I just need to know how I can overcome these issues. I am struggling with self-doubt, confidence and reputation in the office. My voice automatically lowers when I speak to any senior person. Even after getting my dream job and settling things in my 20s, I am facing these issues. If anyone has gone through this, your words would be really helpful for me. 🙏
