Do you have a family? I find that with a family + a young kid, a lot of my mental capacity/ability to focus for longer periods has diminished.
Maybe you can pair with one of the other developers? If they are junior, they could benefit from your experience and insight and you could benefit from their focus and ability to navigate the massive codebase.
Other things you can try (work for me): getting comfy in a small and cozy room, turning the lights off or putting in noise cancelling headphones. Move the phone away and turn off any notifications. Better yet, have a dedicated machine for coding with no logged in accounts.
Ome last thing, you may have undiagnosed ADHD. Mine became progressively worse in early 30s. Self medicating through caffeine no longer worked for me. The doses that were effective were making me severely anxious and sometimes nauseous. ADHD meds have removed the negative side effects of caffeine and helped me feel a little more normal.
Sorry about the long comment: there’s a lot I can share from my perspective, but I don’t know if any of it helps. Feel free to comment back if you’re interested in touching base.
