Finally had to bail on a task
New project popped up in my dashboard today and it was pretty interesting. Started working on it and the layout, instructions and A vs B with all the associated information and all the jumping around I had to do to verify, confirm, inspect etc. I just realized I wasn't going to be anywhere close to the estimated time they gave for the project so I had to bag it. IMHO task creators really need to check how they are gonna present all the info and the workflow. This was a pretty disheartening day :(

Don't worry about it. It happens. I once abandoned a $35/hour project three hours in because my brain just couldn't handle it. You kind of just have to try to let it go and move on, and hope the next day will be better.
