Break and Prevent the Boredom Spiral

If my mind wanders for too long, it’s hard to come back. The game moved on. A lot of what happened in the game slipped past me. I don’t know where we are or what we’re doing. I don’t want to admit that I lost track so I try to catch up but then my mind wanders even more because I can’t grasp what’s going on now when I don’t know what happened before.
