I've been having really good luck with using ChatGPT to push through my various walls. Oftentimes it will at least give me a rough idea of how to do things I'm too gun-shy on or, even if I don't like the answers it gives me, the act of writing out out my concerns/struggles/plans/etc helps me sort through my thoughts better and gets the ball rolling. I use it like a rubber ducky that answers back and gives some decent answers from time to time, basically.

hmmm not a bad idea, hadn't thought of using it as a sounding board :) thank you!

Welcome! Good luck! A thought: Because I do lewd stuff, I do tend to have to use metaphors and abstractions for my conversations, so I don't have to worry about sharing any private info. You may wish to do the same for privacy/security.
