That happened to me temporarily. Reading, writing, processing information including walking became impaired when I was on antipsychotics. It was for this reason I had to stop. I found mental exercises such as riddles helped tremendously. In actuality, there is evidence riddles and board games help with cognitive functioning.

for the longest time I didn’t try reading…now I read four pages in one setting, and it is going well…don’t give up…keep trying.

I found a writer I’m really crazy about, Roxane Gay and I can read nothing else I don’t know why. But reading is something I don’t care for too much. It’s a gift i just don’t have. I need to practice my mandolin Prescious then maybe I’ll have something to brag about.

I can’t read for long. I get mind block very quickly

I don’t read for pleasure except articles that catch my eye on the internet. But I have no problems with textbooks or other reading material for classes. I just finished Frankenstein for a class.
Can’t really sit through movies too good either but just watched a movie for my class too and watched it in one sitting and enjoyed it.
