Answer 1

You could also do it with a async Task.

private bool inCooldown = false;
private async void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (inCooldown)
        return;

    inCooldown = true;
    // your button click code
    await Task.Delay(6000);
    inCooldown = false;
}

You could also use a new thread, but it depends on system resources.

private bool inCooldown = false;
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (inCooldown)
        return;

    inCooldown = true;
    Task.Run(async () =>
    {
        await Task.Delay(6000);
        inCooldown = false;
    });
    // your button click code
}
