Sorry you are having such a hard time with the lessons. Have you tried just playing the chords over the lessons instead of the finger picking? I know there are sites out there more orientated for playing chords, but they are just as complex as the lessons here. Their complexity just lies in a different direction.
Sounds to me like you need to really get your basics down. The lessons here are all based around chords. Many are written around very basic open chords with a few added notes.
Don't judge yourself by others progress. I have a learning disability that makes me fight for every advance I get so I can relate to your frustration.
If you do leave us, I hope you keep the bookmark and come back when you feel more comfortable. Playing is all about enjoying yourself, find what brings the fun back into your practice. No flames here. The door is always open.
