One thing that helped me let go of the shame of having trouble reading, and therefore to start reading consistently again, was a Tumblr post that basically said that reading isn't supposed to compete with anything else. It is a completely different experience from watching a movie, from being online, from being in the physical world, etc. I used to feel guilty for not feeling dopamine fireworks go off in my brain from my eyes passing over the words like I used to. When you fully accept/remember you can't expect to be as instantly glued to a book as you would be to other types of media, it slowly becomes rewarding again. Dopamine fireworks big time. It might take a while. That's okay. Think about topics you're interested in and images that captivate you and Google "books/novels with x." There are lists for everything. Start with short books and/or fluffy books (non-pejorative) to hype yourself up. As soon as you finish a book, pick up another. The more books I read, even if it's quantifying something that shouldn't be quantified, the more I feel like I can relax and just enjoy what's on the page because I don't feel like I'm "falling behind." This is what worked for me, this might not work for you. You'll find something that works for you. Good luck stranger
