It's day 3 of my PhD and idk how i'm going to do this

Doing a PhD in Physics.

It's day 3 and sometimes when I think about the journey ahead, and how long and hard and how I don't even know where to start, I started panicking.

I spent 8 hours yesterday on a single paper on my topic because all the terminology is new and I'm just so overwhelmed.

I also have ADHD, but live in a country where it's impossible to get diagnosed basically, so that another part which is overwhelming me

Am I gonna be okay? Am I going to be unhappy for the next 3-4 years, I don't know
