Not long after I signed up I was super pumped and wrote up the first chapter of five, which ended up a whole 15k, and I was super psyched to keep going... and then I had a big issue with my laptop charger that made it almost impossible to type. But apparently I have an unusual type of laptop so it took ages and multiple incorrect chargers (which made me feel super dumb for getting them wrong) to fix it. By which time I'd had enough free time to stew and ended up right back in the super bad mental health place I'd started writing the fic to avoid. Now I'm ready to write again but I'm right about to be super busy for two weeks, so I have 0 chance of getting it done on time.
I know it's just a fic and I can always just return to it once this is all over but man, I really thought the time we had to finish the fic would be more than enough and I was pumped to actually succeed at something for once, so it's not really helping the mental health stuff to have failed after all;;;;
