Are there any other ways to escape? Escape reality, and forget all this bullshit? I usually just sleep, but that’s not 100% enough, cause I wake up then can’t go back to sleep. I used to just watch videos but my phone is to slow, and if I keep going on my phone this much I’ll become legally blind. What other ways do you escape reality and forget about everything? I’m just trying to run away from my feelings. That’s all I can do at this point.

I can’t escape.
I wish I could point you to the post where Hazy talks about exercising like mad to keep herself centered.
Hobbies, socialization. I write. Some paint. Many musicians are driven to practice to keep the demons at bay.
And then there is the ever elusive meditation.
The active things are usually healthy. The passive things (TV, drugs) usually aren’t.
Of course, changing your life or changing your mind so that you don’t want to escape in the first place is the best. You may not be in a position to do that.
There are plenty of people that are disgusted with the way society is and share similar interests as you. I’d suggest just fighting for change and remember that you aren’t the one that sucks around here. Many people feel the same way but it’s good to take breaks. Everyone has something to ventilate or distract them at times. No one can tell you what’ll fit you because everyone is different but I wish you luck in finding whatever you may enjoy during your fallow states.
My reality lately has been on overdrive. Since I can’t do drugs and drinking would just land me in jail it’s either kill myself on the treadmill or pool or plug in and listen to music. Lately the racing thoughts have turned inward so I don’t have any solutions, even for myself, today.
I live in a suburb, so sometimes I just walk to the city. It takes maybe 2-3 hours, and it’s exhilerating. It’s slow. You get into a groove. You notice the city, gradually growing around you. By the time I arrive, I feel elated.
