Yeah ... I thought it would help that Mike gave me some parameters, so I didn't have to build Khag from scratch. And it did help, but I'm also OCD and worry about every part of the character and try to make everything perfect. :P

That advice is hard to hear. One thing that helped me is that Sean pointed out that I was doing something fun and could enjoy it in a relaxed manner - in other words, he gave me positive advice rather than giving me a blanket "stop stressing." Saying it this way distinguishes between positive/allowable emotions (for me, being super-focused on leveling - but it could also be mourning things that are sad, being angry at things that are problems) and the destructive stress that is just turned in on oneself, without invalidating the unhappy feelings as a whole.

Did you go to the no-kill cat shelter booth? With the grey kitties? They were unfairly adorable. D:

They had a little white kitten with tabby spots at the no-kill shelter with the gray ones. I wanted it so badly.

That one was SO CUTE. D: It was the only one that woke up when I was there, and it would bat at people's fingers.
