How do I get more into reading? I don't have a favorite genre and have congenital nystagmus so I read super slow and have to stop sometimes or read larger print. I never got into because of that but I like audiobooks now.

read more i guess

Do you want to read fiction? There are a lot of charts on the wiki. Look through them for something that sounds interesting. You can also ask here for a recommendation based on something you read and liked in the past.
If you decide to read a classic keep in mind the beginning (at least for me) is the most difficult part because they start slow, you have to remember a bunch of character names, and you have to accustom to the author's writing style. If you slog through the difficult part you will end up liking it or at least tolerating it. They are classics for a reason.
For your condition, would it help to get an ereader and set the font size very large?

>read larger print
You could get an e-reader and jack up the font size on it. Look secondhand and you can find them for cheap. I got a decent one for less than $50 a few years ago. Get something other than a Kindle and you'll have an easier time pirating books. Look for epub files.

Other than that, just focus on trying to find books you really like. If you're pirating, download whatever piques your interest and give it a shot. You can worry about expanding your taste after you've read a few things you like, because they'll tell you where your interests are. Read more from the same author, or read from authors like them.

You can start with some classics, or try looking at books by authors from whom you've listened to an audiobook (something new so you don't get bored). Check out the /lit/ wiki Recommended Reading charts:

I don't know too much about what I like. I listened to some HP Lovecraft and the sea stories didn't really intrigue me all that much. I know I like comic books but I want to get into things less "nerdy" and more "normal reader" type to become a more "up to date" reader I guess.

A lot of movies are based on books. Generally the good ones are based on good books. Maybe start by listening to audiobooks that movies you enjoyed were based on.

Or if this was supposed to be a request for slop recommendations, try GRRM, Branderson, or JK Rowling.

Most people don't read. If you hear someone brag about reading hundreds of books in a year (I heard this several times on my campus) it's because they are women reading romance fantasy slop like A Court of Thorns and Roses. It's no better than comic books. Or they're lying. If this is what you meant by "normal reader" then you aren't missing out.
If you like comic books you might like sci-fi. Philip K. Dick is good. His books are easy to read and short. I recommend Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said.

Read books while walking to and fro in your room, then imagine you're getting paid per page that you read (this is actually what studying is). Don't worry about not tackling high-word-density literature, just study something you enjoy at first, then delve into topics that interest you or you want to know more about, or retrogratively supplement your old primary / high school / college grades (picking up where you left off), etcetera.

This is all really sound advice. Thanks everyone. I'll check out some of the recommendations.

I always pick a "homework" type book and a fun book so I don't burn out on the tough stuff and stay engaged. My favorite book is The Hobbit, if you want to push yourself as a beginner you could read Beowulf at the same time.

Also if you like audiobooks, you could try listening and following the words at the same time. I do that.

Whispering the words help me to concentrate. Can't read normally otherwise. Don't know what congenial mystgamus is but if you're ADHD zoomer brained it helps a great deal

audiobooks are fine

Some VR headsets have eye tracking. I can imagine that you could use that to compensate for the eye movements
