Have you guys ever experienced art consumption burnout? I haven't

Well, that depends on how much "art" you are consuming. I read and study for school a total of 6-8 hours a day (10-12 on weekends) and I don't get bored nor unfocused, AS LONG as the content is interesting.

I take 20 minute meditation breaks every couple of hours, where I clear my mind of everything. Try doing that.

Of course, I do have days where I am unable to think and barely get anything done, but that's usually when there are a lot of stressors in my life.

I suggest the aforementioned meditation breaks and also getting some exercise.

I should be able to get everything done that i want to get down in around 5 hours daily.

but now it's been taking me way longer because of constant rewinds and again, lack of involvement. Nothing in real life has happened to me, so there's nothing really to clear my mind OF, but I can't find the same love of art I used to.

This all started a couple weeks ago when I watched evangelion and loved it, but now I can't enjoy anything else whatsoever. It's hell.

Take a break

>art consumption regime

why shouldn't i do this?

like someone suggested above, meditation can help with restlessness. you might also try to just take a break and focus on something else.

Try reading something silly and fun. I had a burnout recently, and eventually broke through by picking up a funny memoir. I told myself "read for 30 minutes straight" and ended up finishing the whole thing without stopping. Re-associating reading with fun helped me get back in the groove of reading in larger time blocks, and now I'm back to my usual pace even with the heavy stuff.

the problem is that im in the middle of alot of intense shit rn, that I can't really put down
I'm watching a convoluted sci-fi epic show, and reading a long, difficult novel

I have a bunch of high intelligence classics on my plate too, and none of them seem easy and like a break.

I need something to focus on so I don't get apathetic and depressed. Usually it's escapism, but I can't force myself to escape for some reason anymore.

/lit/ is not /fit/, you consume art because it gives you joy and not muscles or points in a game. Art is free, and putting its consumption in a "regime" is grotesque.

Seriously, how did your regime even look? 50 pages/day, 1 album/day, 1 exhibition/month or what?

Two issues of a comic a day, 40 pages a day, two eps of a show a day, 3 movies a week.

It used to give me joy AND make me feel like I was doing something. I want to become as knowledgable about narrative as I can, so I can write.

dont mean to squash your melons here but consuming media isn't "doing something." drawing comics, writing stories, making movies, or discussing the above would be doing something.
