He played DDR for hours at a time on the weekends. His research on mass shooters was also so extensive that he probably poured a huge amount of his time just into studying them too.
I don't think forums could have taken up much of his time since he didn't post that much and there's only so much you can lurk. A lot of his time might have just been on his hobbies like video games, reading and watching horror films, and anxiety/paranoia can also eat up a lot of hours when you're fixated on something.

It's possible he could've re-read some of the same information over and over again, I feel.
But on the whole I imagine he largely just languished in his room, not doing much. Dylann Roof, whose mental illness wasn't as severe, told people he would sit in his bed for hours doing nothing except look at the walls, that's how depressed he was. I can't imagine Lanza would have been more active.

Thank you for commenting! I agree that he could have read same information over and over again

He really did. An employee at the arcade Adam played DDR at said that they once had to unplug the machine to get him to leave. It was also said that he sometimes played DDR for 8-10 hours at a time.

I think he was too depressed to do anything, the most he could have done the day before was to rehearse in his head a plan of attack and a plan to commit suicide

I think he laid on his floor a lot, thinking and moping. He mentions it more than once. Not saying it's all he did but it was definitely in there somewhere.
