[Bunny #1] Make a List
Make a list.
Of every fic/art/icon/whatever bunny you have that you would like to write/create sometime in the foreseeable future. This includes bingo cards, big bangs, comment fics, exchanges, random plotbunnies, sequels, etc.
Detail it if you want to. You can be as vague as you like. No one ever has to see your list but you.
Do it either in your own journal or in a notebook or in the comments or whatever. I usually find one of those blank notebooks I bought with high hopes and then never quite found the words to put in it. They're really good at holding lists.
You can organize however you'd like - ficlets together, epics together, or by fandom, or by what they're for... But one list, in one place.
Take your time. Look through old notebooks, textfiles, e-mail, journal entries... Round up everything.
And hang onto that list. You'll need it.
(I am a 'sense of accomplishment' person, so I'll list even individual chapters on separate lines. Putting a check-mark beside 'Exciting Space Adventures Chapter 7' feels good, even if I'm immediately adding 'Exciting Space Adventures Chapter 8' to the list.)

I have a list (pitiful as it is, which is also kind of sad), and I'm torn between whether actually posting it would help me do something with it, or would just make me chew off my own arm like a beastie in a trap because I'm me and guilty anxiety attacks is how I roll these days.

Your list is your list is your list. It's not a good list or bad list, it just is. Instead of being a list of things you have to do or need to do, it's a list of things you'd like to do (so don't attach any guilt or anxiety).
You can think about posting it/not posting it for as long as you'd like. Mine just stays in a notebook, after all.

Even though I'm awake halfway through sleep because phone, I'm much more coherent now (I think) *snrk*
I can at least say that yes, these are things I would like to do. It's that slippery trap into 'have/need' that I'm bad for these days, the gods only know why. *facepalms*
