Come over and help me and my wife with all our house projects and yard work. We don't have time for everything we want to do.

Binging TV isn't pretty or healthy but it does definitely help time travel past those sad times in your life where you need time to heal
You need to sort our bed time routine out.
Don't do anything in bed other than sleep (or sex). Go to bed try to sleep, if you don't sleep get up and go to another room and come back in half an hour, an hour whatever it takes. Try sleep again if that doesn't work after a bit get up again. I actually find going for a pee and trying again works surprisingly well. Take your TV out of your room, don't use your phone in bed, don't exercise in your bedroom and don't exercise late and night.
Try the military sleep method.
If you want time to waste on something, do a jigsaw or scale model.
Join a board game group.
Watch The World at war 1973. Best ww2 doc ever made and its 26 episodes long. That will waste some time.
Procrastinating... I feel, whenever I postpone something for tomorrow, days fly by faster than usual.
Having a due date for a project or work assignment that you procrastinate really makes time move way too quickly
I smoke weed and watch TV. I also take Zoloft every day and it works pretty well at minimizing my intrusive thoughts too (which mostly happen at night) so it's like multi-pronged for me.
Idk, if you've been going through this for a while and nothing in this thread works, you could look into antidepressants; you don't have to be on them forever. A lot of the common ones are somewhat affordable without insurance.
I had been on zoloft for a while but stopped a few years ago. I actually just started again very recently. We'll see if that works.
Weed doesn't help for me, it makes me more anxious. TV also helps for a little bit
Im a huge advocate for fitness and diet for people who are having trouble with mental health. Because it gives you something you can nerd out on, control, research and if it sticks its a huge net positive for your life.
Figuring out your macros, setting yourself a step goal, designing a functional diet, doing some basic weight training even with just bodyweight exercises.
It also has the advantage of quite often leaving you tired at the end of the day. I can recommend some resources if you like.
