Dealing with demons again, looking for help around this site, perhaps your ways are better than mine.
I feel like I’m shutting down, and I’m drowning under my blanket, as if my breath is slowly getting heavier.
I wanted to know, what is your escape from reality?
Im dealing with lots of complications and my so far only way to cope is to watch cartoons (southpark/Futurama etc) and do sports. Perhaps you can enlighten me. and please keep the “smoke weed” bullshit to yourself.
On another note, I wanted to state that I’m going to find relationship next semester. I’m an extremist when it comes on surviving and perfecting certain situations. And current situation makes me focus only on studying and working. Therefor I exclude any option to meet new girls, even if they are in to me. So, stating something like this, is really helping me to pre plan time for socializing.
Anyway, hope you do well, more than welcome to let me know how you guys doing. Stay strong and be brave, Yours – Jac.

I play video games. Useless answer sorry but that’s what I do
I used to play video games, but that didn’t help my escaping. Thank you for sharing tho.
I just put on head phones and get lost in music.
As far as cartoons go,I know that many people watch Rick and Morty.Other than that,video games (as spectralgiraffe wrote),music (as unknownsoldier wrote),movies,you can go for walks or bike rides,hang out with friends,meet new people and talk to them in real life or on social media,you can read books…or have a pet.Pets are nice.Or-and maybe these are odd suggestions-go to the theatre,learn to play chess.I can’t think anything else…I hope I’ve helped.
Sometimes when I want to escape reality I immerse myself in a different reality. For example, if I feel overwhelmed by my home with housework, shopping, cooking etc. I will go outside. Take a walk in the woods, sit by the water, listen to the birds. Or I will distract myself with someone else’s problems. And I almost forgot, I will drive to a park that has a lot of open space and fly one of my kites.
I also keep a bowling ball in the trunk of my car. Bowling is a great way for me to blow off steam. Haven’t been able to do that lately. But it’s one of my goals for when (or if) I get healthy again!
I know you said not to but it’s my life line : smoke weed :’-(
I guess my path to chaining my demon is perhaps longer than what I thought.
Thank you all for the advices!
