Anyone just losing their patience with stuff? Like can't focus on the stuff you watch/read? (sh.itjust.works)

Recently, I just can't just watch youtube videos on 1.0x speed, I go as fast as 1.5, sometime 1.75 or 2.0. I skim all the articles i read. And I just skim anything said by npcs in video games. I used to be able to take it slow and enjoy the details in games, now I kinda go like ugh, boring... next thing please

I played BOTW and TOTK then I can't finish TOTK anymore. Like its not bad, just feels tedious after playing for a while (barely been 2 months)

Is this a thing? Getting older = less patience? (I'm not even old lol, still only a young adult)

I was like this, but I realized that it was because I was stressed, that I always thought that I didn't deserve to watch that video or play that game or do that hobby, so I rushed through them so I wounds feel as guilty. I started splitting my day into chunks and I told myself that I won't work after 6. So now, after 6, I don't feel guilty for relaxing anymore. I still watch videos at 1.25, but not 2x anymore :P

You probably don't have the same issues as me, but I thought I'd share.
