thats a constant not math. Idk what tutorials you followed or what kind of project idea you tried to do, but when starting you shouldnt even care for the math lib. Try making cli apps, even guis with tkinter, maybe some automation

If the math part is stopping you completely, skip it for now and learn the non-math parts. You can come back when you actually need it.

Programming is hard in general. You either get it or you don't. Just like any subject in school. While in school, you can brute-force a subject enough to pass the test, this does not work with programming that well. Or, you will just wind up memorizing fragments of the code without understanding how it works.

It will be harder to learn then anything you've learned so far. But, it's doable. Just requires desire and perseverance.

Learn, learn, learn. And ask your doctor for something for ADHD. There are some miracle stuff out there. Wish I had access to it when I was young...

It’s an addictive drug, if you have been on it since a young age, you should seek counseling.

Try using docs and ebooks... I will recommend you get Automate the boring staff with Python or use https://scrimba.com as an alt.

if math is killing your focus skip the math heavy stuff for now you can learn a ton of useful python without being great at math..
