I've lost my attention span and ability to focus. I can't read more than two pages before my eyes start to blur and then I check my phone. I used to be an avid reader when I was NEET status years ago. I can't read for long and I can abrely retain any of the information that I do read. Is it over bros, will I ever get it back?

You can start the attention curve again if you want to, when you have the energy for attention. Maybe you have not lost your attention span and it has only narrowed to a form in which you can give attention a shorter period of time. There is the path open of experimenting on yourself whether the attention span decreases by reading more books, and making a possible conclusion that you have read enough books and that life is about more than only reading books.
