I feel like my capacity to focus has absolutely been decimated by social media. The short form content has killed my attention span. I actually haven't read much at all over the past five years, whereas I used to love reading. I'm only just now getting back into it. Maybe you just need to give yourself permission to have a break, knowing that it might take a few years to come back to it. Give yourself time. Books will always be there.
