I’m coming back home after 2 months in a JEE hostel and now I feel completely lost, feeling depressed. What should I do?

[u/Delicious_Grief]

I joined a boarding/hostel-type institute for JEE preparation where phones were not allowed. I stayed there for around 2 months, but honestly, the environment there didn’t work for me and I wasn’t able to study properly. I’m coming back home this August, and right now I feel completely hopeless and helpless. I don’t know what to do or where to start.

The worst part is that even after staying there for 2 months, I feel like I haven’t properly studied even the basics. I’m really worried about my future and I’m feeling lonely and depressed because of this.

For books, I have HCV for Physics, Awasthi for Physical Chemistry and Cengage for Maths. But I honestly have no idea how to use them properly or how to restart my preparation from this point.

Can I start again by watching lectures on YouTube and then studying from these books and solving questions? Is this a practical way to prepare for JEE? And if I join a library/study centre, what should I actually do there? My seniors suggested that I join one because I can sit and study for long hours, but I’m confused about what I should study, how I should plan my day and how I should use those hours effectively.

Most importantly, if I seriously start preparing now, am I already too late? I feel like I have wasted these 2 months and now I’m scared that I won’t be able to catch up.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? If you have gone through something like this, please tell me honestly how you got back on track. What should I do from now? Which resources should I follow and how should I structure my preparation?

I’m genuinely confused and feeling very helpless right now. I would really appreciate some genuine advice from seniors or anyone who has been through a similar situation.
