How to make a delay for a specific command?

Question

Python

Hello, there was a problem with the command delay. It would be desirable that not the entire script freezes in anticipation of the end of time, but a specific command. (So ​​that other commands can be used). I used time.sleep() before, but its problem is that when the code "falls asleep" and the user continues to enter the same command even with a warning, the bot starts writing and writing non-stop after these commands. Is it possible to solve one of these problems and how?
