Well, there is nothing wrong with that. I have been conlanging for twenty years now, and I am still full of doubt. After all, we all started as complete amateurs, and most of us still are. Of course, spending some time on the List teaches you a lot. Just use your first language as an opportunity to play around a bit, and to find out what you like and what you don't. Right now, I simply can't look at my first language anymore (I am actually redoing it), but yet it was the basis without which none of my later projects could have emerged. Don't hesitate to share your language - or whatever you have made. It is always easier to give feedback on the basis of something concrete, especially if you take the time to formulate your questions and/or doubts carefully.
