Drama SLUMP

I know the feeling, I posted a thread recently:

https://mydramalist.com/discussions/general-discussion/65463-starting-a-series-and-dropping-it

It's like nothing works anymore, like a drug addict that can't get his fix :)

But I found my dosage last weekend, Arthdal Chronicles. It's a bit dark, but it's very engaging, and high quality.

I also like Go Go Squid, but it's way too long and slow, but I keep watching it because I like the leads.

Maybe some sort of reset can help. Clear everything, don't watch anything for 2-3 weeks. And then watch something carefully selected, even a series you've previously watched that you really enjoyed but has sort of faded in memory.

I've been in the slump once or twice before - what helped was either 1. a meaningful intense but short lived - (long ones do too - but really not everyone wants long breaks from dramas) - where you do every other hobby except watching dramas and enjoy them to the fullest - since I'm sure you wouldn't have had time to do them much between life and dramas. 2. like somebody before me said, a completely a completely different genre, from a different country, or maybe an anime, or short intense or comedy movies. 

However, after acknowledging said slump in those times - sometimes wallowed in for a while or sometimes recovered quickly from... I learnt the trick and avoided even falling into slumps at all for a while now - recognizing it early - I did it so much - that I'm finally deeeeep in one now - even though I failed to acknowledge it and have been in denial for a while now. It goes something like I pick up 5 stuff and manage to stick with just 1 and drop all others. I got so complacent and have lead myself to this state. A clean break doesn't seem very welcoming. I'm out of tricks too ... What to do .. sigh..
