Most universities have some sort of mental health services available to students, at least for short term issues (they can refer you to someone for long-term treatment if necessary). If you're still in high school (I have no idea of your age), then there ought to be school counselors who can offer the same guidance in locating help. If you're not sure where to get help, your teachers or professors will also have this information. There's no need to worry about asking them for help, depression and stress-related issues are quite common among students, so any faculty at your school probably have been giving a list of resources of where to send students who come to them asking about getting help.

I understand that you're in india, so I'm not sure what specific options are open to you, but good for you for asking for help. That may be the hardest part.

If you can't talk to a professional, it might be helpful just to read about depression (www.depression.com) and understand that many, many people suffer from it. Try to find somebody to talk to about it whether they are a professional or not. A friend, relative, teacher, classmate, coworker, or clergyperson are all possibilities.

The biggest thing to realize is that your feelings are not unusual. Talk about it. It will help.

Best of luck.

I’ve been looking through the curricula of several European theoretical/mathematical physics MSc programs (ETH, Oxford, Cambridge, LMU, ENS Paris, etc), and I’m struck by how little emphasis they place on advanced fundamental courses. Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
