Knowing I have to break my word count down this way has spun me into despair.

Going to my agent with a manuscript that's way too long:

Plot 50k words
Character work 20k words
Entirely unnecessary subplot that does nothing except please the author 60k words
Worldbuilding 30k words

someone who is good at the writing please help me budget this. my novel is dying
