I came up with a secondary benefit to reading to help encourage me. My ears started hurting from always having earbuds in while using the computer or phone. So if I spent hours reading every day that would be time I didn't use earbuds.

I was afraid of reading or watching anime before because I saw it as a serious hobby and put pressure on myself to perform well. If I read something and didn't retain what I read then I feel bad and I put it off to doomscroll on the internet. Now that I've stopped caring I don't have this problem anymore. I still don't remember or understand everything I read but I am reading books now and I have to rewind and pause when watching anime when I don't pay attention but I've stopped beating myself for it.

>>321285I have the exact same problem when reading books . The understanding everything thing + I also can’t concentrate if I hear/might hear (that is the retarded part) noises, which means that I basically have to be recluse in order to be able to read anything ”complicated“.
