I'm just a kid who loves theoretical astrophysics and quantum mechanics and from reading previous posts, I'm getting the notion that my passion will wear off.

Furthermore, you could revive your neurons by excercising them. Just excercising them or practicing what you used to be able to do
would be a wise choice.
