I used to be an avid reader, but years of high school and depression completely ruined that. I haven’t been able to complete a novel since senior year six years ago. It’s frustrating to me and I want to know how I can overcome my lack of focus and anxiety. I’ve heard I’m not alone when it comes to this sort of thing at least.

E: I wasn’t expecting so many replies. Thank you, all of you, for the ideas.

    Find a book that makes you want to turn the page because you “absolutely want to know what happens next”. Don’t think too much about the act of reading itself because it’ll make you more anxious. Do it because it’s fun for you
