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

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've been listening to a great book series called dungeon crawler carl on audible..there's like 6 books and they are pretty long .that could eat up time.. I listen to them whilst exercising

Haven't listen to dungeon crawler Carl, but He who fights with monsters is also a good series

Mines a wild departure in tone but the Wandering Inn is both long and engaging.
