I'm pretty good at it, and I love it. I'm a woman too, so I guess I am a statistical outlier. I do research using a lot of math and I teach grad classes that are math-filled and challenging. I must say I had trouble though during major depression, but now I am better and better at it. It took longer to finish my PhD because it took so long to remember things and to figure things out - also my motivation was pretty low at times.
