Im able to read articles on the internet, some news but I dont know if it’s laziness but i cant focus on books. I have time for that and some interesting e-books that are ready to read but rather do nothing. In general I cant do anything not only reading. Just laying, listening to music and smoking for whole day. Im just thinking and get worse. Do u have something similar? How to do some activities.

I bought a kindle paperwhite . But i just couldn’t focus on it. These days its easier for me to buy the audible version and listen to it in bed instead.

I struggle with focus, I lose focus even when someone is talking to me for long periods of time.

I considered some audible versions or podcasts but it is the same, i dont even watch movies, just thinking again and again, good music without try to understand words…i should fight with that but i think im not too strong. Only maybe sometimes

Actually I am proud of myself for being able to read like 3-4 books per month. Which is a kind of achievement and I am interested to read more books. Which is giving me some hope.
I made a habit to read like close to 50 pages daily and if I do not I feel like sick or not well. Like it has become like a essential thing for me. I don’t know how I imbibed this but it’s my long term dream to read more books since childhood when I saw some small books or mini books my friend used to bring.
Wish I could write some books some day. That is also my dream as it would express myself to the world as opposed to me thinking everything in my head.

I struggle with the books a lot too…
I even stopped watching tv, i can get overwhelmed by sounds and colours…
After my busier days now, i need to retire on the floor in my bedroom, just with my phone, with one table lamp and in silence…
But this is bad, its the death even for our sz, i should move instead…
But you all are not lazy, believe me! My pdoc said, that only the healthy ones can be lazy… Our stuff is a symptom and we’ve saw many pain, negatives etc… its not laziness…

I often don’t finish books. That’s a tendency I’ve got.
For learning I prefer online content to books.

I prefer reading short articles online. I don’t have the patience for long books. Especially dictionary sized books. I prefer 300 pages or less.

I have always struggled with attention span and dyslexia so reading things like novels and literature has never appealed to me. I like real life stuff but only really online. And health a beauty books

Just I cant identify what is that, no motivation, why I should read, watch and so on, I go to grocery cause i need to eat and then lay again. Just i dont see any sense of my life.

I succesfully read a book 
I have no idea if there are some other problems in the backround but I chose very interesting topic to me. So it works when I read a book about problems that I suffer.
And one thing more that I learned: just do something right now what makes you feel good, happy. Dont wait for the future and forget for your past. Now it is the first day of the rest of your life
Dont really enjoy it anymore. My memory is a little crap so some books are difficult. I can read drugstore paperback type books but find them boring
