How to make a month go by as fast as possible other than sleeping (yiffit.net)

submitted 4 months ago by [email protected] to c/asklemmy

112 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm having some personal issues causing some severe depression and anxiety. I'd like to get past this time as fast as possible, and my days are dragging on. I can't sleep, which would be a good way to make time go fast. But I also can't just play video games, I don't have the motivation to play more than a few minutes and it also just makes me realize how alone I am with no friends or anyone I can connect with emotionally and I spiral into my anxiety and depression.

I can do stuff during the day, run, chores, etc. But as soon as I'm done, especially at night, I start freaking out and it seems like time stands still. Does anyone have any suggestions? Activities I can do that are mindless that will just kill time and get me through the night before I can just go to sleep?

I know this question is stupid but I'm looking for at least somewhat serious answers.

I heard opioids also make doing jack shit easy.

Opiods and benzos help. That is something that will likely happen this month but I only have so many. And it only helps because it's a change. If I took them every day I'd just need more and shit. So, those will come and help me sleep when I need it, not an every day thing.

Technically I'm currently traveling, that's what this month period is. I COULD go somewhere else, but I don't want to by myself. This is the best place for me mentally at the moment.
