Here's my advice:

#1) Don't take this too seriously.

#2) Live inside your character's skin; see things from his perspective.

#3) Since you're already doing #2, refer back to #1.

One added piece of advice:

Engage other writers by letting your character to interact with them. Making posts together with someone is the finest hour of that practise but it can be relatively light as well.
