My attention for movies is really inconsistent

Two nights ago I was a movie watching machine. Now I phase out after 5 minutes. I think I would be happier if it was consistent. This messing around just gets my hopes up

Stupid me took a caffeine tablet earlier hoping it would aid my concentration. It hasn’t

I’m sorry you’re feeling down. With medication changes, inconsistency can, temporarily be the norm. Kudos to you for what youre doing. I hope it levels out soon.

Any time, hon. You’re so open and honest about how you’re feeling. I encourage that!

I have very little to no patience for bad movies. If it’s a good movie, I have total concentration and focus and can watch the whole thing. But if it’s a lousy movie, I’m done within a half hour. And I can usually tell within that time frame.

cant watch movies consistently, we need to ebb and flow, rise and fall with our moods, with me anyway i have to be in the mood for it, if not then focus on something else

I do okay if there are car chases, explosions, or free range boobies. Otherwise…

A bad movie, to me, usually has car chases, explosions, and free range boobies.

I only watch movies when I want to hammer my brain into submission.

My attention for movies is pretty consistent. 20 minutes and then pause and take a break then continue… And repeat.

But in general, inconsistency is one of my biggest complaints though. Good days and bad days. That translates into me not being able to plan or do anything.

I plan, sometimes, and reschedule. Rinse. Repeat. Lol
