I used to be an avid reader, but years of high school and depression completely ruined that. I haven’t been able to complete a novel since senior year six years ago. It’s frustrating to me and I want to know how I can overcome my lack of focus and anxiety. I’ve heard I’m not alone when it comes to this sort of thing at least.
E: I wasn’t expecting so many replies. Thank you, all of you, for the ideas.
I recommend to start small and build a habit for reading. For example start with 10 minutes every evening in the bed before sleeping and then gradually increase the time. There is an awesome book describing the power of habits. https://www.samuelthomasdavies.com/book-summaries/self-help/atomic-habits/
