Sounds like me and the Roaches last week - I'd climbed on the grit only once in the last 18 months. I backed off of two routes due to being timid, and unsure of everything from footwork to gear placements to my own strength.
Square peg round hole etc and so on. Sometimes I think I should an effort to climb on grit more... And then I just think stuff it I'm not that bothered!
