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.

In the name of Krolm, Giant Rat God, I'd love to read a book, but I just can't find a time for that. Audiobooks are also an option, but it's hard to focus on important matters and listen to a book at the same time.

Help.
