It's neither you nor your nicotine deficiency. The subject is just plain hard and anybody remotely normal has to work with the math a long time, under guidance, to get a feel for things that doesn't rest on analogies. The pros usually have this only for slices at a time, and even then the 20th century material drives many into more concrete fields, like fluid dynamics (writ large).
It's frustrating enough without the 24-hour-a-day limit.
