I certainly understand your anxiety, I struggle with it too. One thing that might help is dividing up your projects and setting short but obtainable goals for yourself? Nanowrimo can cause a bit of stage fright, but instead of trying to write an entire novel in a month, why not write a short story? That way, it won't stress you out, and it will be a lot easier to write it down and perfect it

It's also important to remember that NaNoWriMo is just one way to approach writing a novel, and it's not the only path to success. The most important thing is to find a writing process that works for you and to persevere even when it gets tough. Whether you're working on a rough draft, revising and editing, or seeking feedback from beta readers, every step you take brings you closer to the completion of your novel.
If you're looking for ways to stay motivated and make progress on your writing goals, here are a few suggestions:
Set specific, achievable goals for each writing session. This can help you stay focused and make progress on your novel in small, manageable increments.
Create a writing schedule and stick to it. Whether it's every day or just a few days a week, make time for writing and treat it as a priority.
Find an accountability partner or join a writing group. Sharing your writing goals with someone else can help you stay motivated and on track.
Take breaks and give yourself permission to step away from your writing when you need to. It's important to take care of yourself and your mental health, and taking breaks can help you return to your writing with fresh perspective and energy.
