I'd say yes.
I've got mental health issues and before it gets stable(-ish) there was some periods of time with bigger worries. I was at the university (mathematics) at the time and I remember I couldn't concentrate on basic algebra textbook. At the end of the paragraph I had forgotten the beginning, which happened during a period of stress.
So books... at the time, forget it. I was reading during teenage years teenage books.
After that there was a long pause until summer 2014 when I picked up the last Stephen King out because I was bored and knew the name but had never read this author.
Now I guess I've read half of his work maybe
Still, there are periods of time when I can read a lot (a few books per week) and then nothing during two month when I'm down.
