Is anyone else struggling with a diagnosed generalized anxiety disorder and trying to do NaNo? How about completely paralyzed by plot holes? I was stuck on a particular part of my novel last night so when I went to bed I made the mistake of talking about it with MY STUPID HUSBAND, hoping he would help talk me through it. Instead (completely unintentionally, I know... he doesn't quite get that NaNo is supposed to be quantity over quality) he pointed out all of my OTHER plot holes.

Now that anxiety disorder is kicking in, the same one that makes all other decisions impossible, and I'm really struggling to write a single word.

What do you do to get past it?

If its sqicking you out, skip that part. You can come back to it later. You can change it later. If you have plot holes the size of buicks, you can fill them later.

I am not even looking at what i've written beyond the last paragraph - so i know where i left when i pick it back up after putting it down - to avoid this.

Hang in there!
