How to make a month go by as fast as possible other than sleeping

Fal@yiffit.net to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 98 points –

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.

Seems like a great time to invest in some therapy

I actually have started therapy. But it's only once a week. So that doesn't really help the time aspect. That's more of a long game

This is a very serious question: what makes you think time passing without your awareness of it, will make things better for you?
