A Physics Enthusiast
I am afraid this post doesn't belong to this forum. But, I can't think of any other place better than this to post it.
I am an 2nd year physics undergraduate. In high school, I loved physics and spent some time with it. However, I didn't get into any of my preferred universities and for that I started to feel depressed. Later, when the first semester started, I started to feel low, really really low and lost my inner motivation to study physics. Saw some kids doing advanced maths and physics in different websites at such young ages and that made me even more depressed.
I did pretty bad in first semester and barely learned anything. In 2nd semester, same story repeated but this time, I fought depression and nearly got out of it when 2nd semester final exams were very close. Again I did bad in 2nd semester but hopefully, my depression is almost gone.
Having said that, now I am third semester and 1 month of third semester is passed. I am not being able to study properly because of procrastination (which is due to lack of self-motivation) and feeling worried about my wasted life till now. I feel like I barely know anything about physics and I have literally zero problem solving skills. Whatever I want to study, I always find an excuse to get away from it and I think about my somewhat weak knowledge on basics of physics.
Can anybody say something which might help me ?
