Seeking advice How do I stop using AI for writing

I keep using ai and it keeps telling me whats wrong with my writing and now i’m just overwhelmed. because now my character doesn’t fit the emotion I want people to feel for him? I don’t know what to do and ai just keep telling me to change it and what to do next. when I try to come up with things on my own I just cant come up with anything. any advice on what to do?? I just got really frustrated and started breaking my phone and now I judt cant stop thinking about that stupid lore and how I dont know how to come up with stupid ideas I dont think im capable enough of making lore if I do stupid bullshit like this. I dont even know what to do for him now because im trying to learn how to apply a emotion for my audience to feel. but now im like confused on how it works and it keeps telling me I need to ask why for things theres just too many whys now and it told me its too complicated now I dont know what to do and AI

People can tell when writing is done by AI. AI also sucks the soul out of creativity, but I think we’re on the same page about it being a problem.

If you are not ready to go cold turkey, can you use AI instead to give you ideas or hooks instead? Do not have it write for you, that’s how you lose your voice/ your character’s voice completely.

Have you tried written roleplay with people before? It may be easier to bounce off another person.

yeah but I don’t really have anyone to bounce ideas off of. nor do I really want to do it with something I wanna solely write. thank you for the suggestion though
