If pain is causing the problems focusing then your reading will likely follow a similar curve. But as for reading as a skill, once you do it consistently then I am certain your speed will pick up. But really, just chill. If I were you, I'd be loading up on that herbal goodness (depending on what state you live in) and reading all the manga I wanted. Don't be hard on yourself, read what you enjoy. It's not like it is for school and you aren't being graded 
If you are bored, come hang out in the Lounge with us. It is a great way to build community and it is really just a bunch of silly nonsense.

Ayyyyyy it may or may not be legal in my country, but let's just say it is cause hell yeah I indulge and hell yeah it helps me get through the day most days
It's far from a cure of course, but it helps a lot and takes that edge off - some more than others but of course if we actually had some medical strains and a choice it would help a lot more. I love it regardless but I would kill to try out some high CBD strains for pain! And some high THC strains for reading manga and eating pizza lol.
I'm chill man and I'm loving the manga but I truly, really want to get back into reading novels because I used to love it and I know I still will when I manage to get back into it. I'm not forcing myself to do it, it's not like I'll stop reading manga now, I'm loving it - I just know that there's so many stories out there that I would dig, especially given I haven't read anything since about 13 years old there must be all sorts of good shit out there, I've never really read adult fiction and never read a thriller/horror or any fantasy outside of Artemis Fowl and Harry Potter all those years ago!
Don't worry, I've been getting blasted and reading manga and I plan on continuing that shit; hitting my vape and reading One Piece from the start to current chapter (914!!) is one of the best things I've done with my adult life! lmao. I won't read anything I don't enjoy, I just know that there's a lot that I would enjoy - as I said before, I've never read a thriller novel but I love a good thriller film so I can only imagine what I'm missing out on!
Yeah I'm probably just repeating myself cause at this very moment I'm vaping flower and reading manga hahaha but I am 100% set on finding some novels to try out over the holidays but of course, I'll take it hella slow and switch back to the manga whenever it frustrates me.
Cheers for the warm welcome, I think I just said the same thing 10 different ways but hey that's cool with me lol
