Start at the bottom lol, and work your way up when you feel the time is right (when your winning regularly at the lower stakes). Maybe your playing above your bankroll, maybe your not good enough for these tables yet, only you can answer that!! Remember as well, there is nothing wrong with starting on the 2p/4p cash tables. Last point yes players do play differently at higher stake tables, they understand position, and pot odds a lot better, and tend to do more big raising more often, where as at lower levels players tend to wait for good hands.

No. The probable truth is that you do.

I find, that if I am playing well within my bankroll, I am much more aggressive, which means i tend to win more often.

On the rare occasions when I go out of my comfort zone I become much more tight and miss opportunities, that I would have pounced on, in a lower stake game.

I have built it up gradually over the last few months and can now play comfortably at a higher level, than a few months ago.

To answer your question, it may well be you that is playing slightly differently
