I have issues with being able to watch movies and the like since sz. I just have a hard time getting into them. I also used to play a lot of video games and since sz have a hard time getting into them. My concentration on reading anything too long is also impaired but probably not as much as the above items.

Do you have difficulty with any of these items since sz/sza
Despite me being a fan of video games, I have trouble passing them now. In my younger years, I would finish almost every video game I started. Now I have trouble playing for more than an hour. The last video game I completed was Fire Emblem Awakening for the Nintendo 3DS about 7 years ago.
I can really relate. Before, I would play the same game over and over, looking to do better than last time but now once I clear the game sometimes at 30-40%, the urge to play it again just isn’t there. Now I just buy a new game, desperate to recover the gaming thrill. It’s affected my finances more than once.
the only two video games I ever played were Pac Man at the arcade and Donkey Kong on our old Atari. lmao. The Donkey Kong music is still stuck in my head.
Yes, the ratio of gaming/reading/movies from before I was SZ to after is like 100:1. I’ve only watched a few movies in the last 20 years, read a few books, don’t game nearly as much. I just find myself thinking how much longer until this is finished.
I do watch TV, but mostly reruns of my favourite shows, there are very few new shows I like. I DVR all the late night comedy talk shows because I go to bed before they come on, then I watch them in the morning, the opening monologues are usually funny and put me in a good mood for the rest of the day, the musical guests over the last number of years have all sucked, I haven’t liked a single one.I don’t like modern music.
I spend a lot of time surfing the Internet. So I do do a considerable amount of reading online. Various articles on a variety of topics mostly. But actual books, not so much.
Man, I used to LOVE video games. Always played various games on xbox live. Nowadays, I can’t and it depresses me. I wanna play the new Battlefield and Halo – maybe I’ll get those when they come out. But I haven’t bought a video game in a few years.
I can watch TV, though, but not movies. I don’t know. Movies are too linear and you really need to follow them the entire time. With just basic TV like sports, you can tune in and out.
