Sounds like you had a plan going into the river and you levelled yourself out of calling because of the size of the bet. If your plan was to call then I would probably stick with that as I don't see how the Q helped much unless they had QQ, but then you become to exploitable by always thinking your beat without the nuts.
As the other posted said, a bet/fold OTR would make this decision much easier.
It doesn't mean you're a bad player, maybe just need to learn from these spots. Review them, but try not to berate yourself as this doesn't really accomplish much
