Glad I'm not the only one. I still have 26 more Reddit links to read before I can safely close my browser.

It would be a bloody miracle if i ever manage to read all the articles and stuff i have opened in (~100) separate tabs. Some have been there for weeks or months, since the last time i lost my browser session...

I get about 3 paragraphs or so into one, and then can't focus on it anymore and switch to something else. By the time I get back to it I usually have to start over and the cycle continues.

I used to be able to focus on things for hours. I can't seem to do that anymore. Haven't been able to for at least the last 8-10 years. Not sure if it's some form of ADHD or something else altogether. I just wish I could focus again.

Only 3 more Chrome windows with about 15 tabs each before I can safely reboot
