Yeah I've done it a few times before. Sometimes I go through periods where I'm just not in the mood at all for anime.

I have had several periods where I do not watch any anime at all and that is good because I focus more on my activities as well as doing others that I had not done before.

I gotta say, that's probably not healthy.

Anyway, such a thing isn't hard at all for me. Anime isn't something so amazing that I need to be watching it all the time. Its literally just another form of entertainment.

Well, anime is my only entertainment, i can't get other thing to make me happy, if i get too bored, i go down stairs and my parents fill me with chores, that's why i need something to keep me upstairs

I can't survive 2 hours without anime, imagine more.
All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath.

When covid broke out I wasn't able to watch anime for half a year. Of course I did read many manga and watched vtubers during this time, so yeah. In hindsight it was a blessing in disguise which let me refresh my tastes, burnout was inevitable the pace I was going last last year.

It's like asking, can you survive without water?

For the people who skipped biology, the obvious answer is no.

I've survived for longer, a whole year to be exact. I tend to alternate between being addicted to gaming and anime pretty frequently though. Like, a burst of binging a bunch of shows I'm interested in and then a burst of binging my backlog of games. It's not the end of the world, series and stuff will still be there, ready for you when you are.

Just get one of these 90+ hours visual novel. Or any long immersive game if you don't like VN (3D, RPG, music/osu, etc.)
That week even completely free will go so fast, you'll wake up from your daydream the next Monday (or whatever day).

Well I was in hospital for 2 weeks straight without anything...just staring out a window, eating bad food and being depressed af. 1 week without anime is fine but without internet or social media too that's tough. But if you're camping or doing something to keep you busy it's not too bad

It seems you have already lost your mind

"We become what we think about"

If you want to succeed in life, plant the next goal you want to achieve in your brain, and work toward achieving that goal. write as specifically as you can the path you need to go through to get to the goal, and If that is really what you wished for, work toward it, and you will achieve it.
