Long waits and Shy personality Types?

HI, Is anyone got any experience with not being able to seek out help with long wait? I feel Like every day is another day closer to a bad outcome but there is nothing I can do to change it. I dont want to start out being difficult if that makes sense. I realise a few extra days isnt really going to matter(but brains will be brains). Any tips on passing the time instead of Dr Google.
