I've been working on rebuilding my reading habit.
There was a period of about a year where I could not sit and read for more than a couple of minutes, due to fatigue. I could read a blurb or a quick article, but I couldn't read anything long form. It was really frustrating. I could still write, but I had to limit that, as well.
Now, I'm spending time here and there, between tasks, and sometimes before bed (I'm often too tired when I go to bed, but sometimes I can get through a few pages or a short chapter) reading, and it's slowly getting better! I'm an avid reader, and losing that ability was very upsetting.
Now, I'm actually GETTING THROUGH my book and magazine pile. It's slow, but I'm seeing progress! It's not about counting books read in a year or whatever. It's about getting back to where I can just immerse myself in the worlds within those books and articles and about continuing to learn about the things I care about!
