Talk maths.

Are there any /sci/-approved methods that would give me inspiration for problem solving? Is meditation the best way to go about it, or is there anything more effective? It's a math problem, if it makes a difference.

Alternatively, are there any entities that could help me solve it?

is pic related acceptable?

First year CS student here.

If I were to continue attending this shitty Java school, I'd probably end up working for some shitty company developing shitty applications and adding bloatware upon bloatware just so they could have something to sell.
I despise corporate malware and have no intention of contributing to the cesspool that is the current software industry.
If I were to go into research, I would much prefer physics.

I was always into science and I didn't go for physics in the first place because I was full of doubt, insecure and I might have had somewhat of an inferiority complex (my mindset was like "Who am I to study physics?").
I'm not gonna get too much into that, let's just say it had a lot to do with math and physics competitions and great ambitions that I never had the strength to achieve.

In the latter part of high school I gave up on science and studying hard, I started watching a lot of anime, eating unhealthy, frequenting /g/ and tinkering with GNU+Linux distors while being shut in and at the computer and (probably to avoid my family) I reversed day and night.
One thing led to another and I ended up in CS.

Now I'm depressed and lonely, I hate myself (I was probably hating myself for a long time now) and I'm rethinking my whole life and how I regret giving up.

Should I drop out of CS and go for physics?
Or is it too late for me and I should just continue being comfy as a shut in autismo weeb programmer full of regret, escapng reality through anime and 4chan?
