Hello /lit/, medfag here. I've been growing tired of studying Medicine from a purely biological and statistical standpoint, so I decided to get into philosophy because it might help me view Medicine from a different standpoint.
I decided to start with Kant. I read the first 50 pages of this and gave up because I didn't understand it very well. Any advice on what to do to understand it better?

Start with a historical survey to get yourself situated. I recommend:
Anthony Kenny - 'A New History of Western Philosophy': https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14828803-a-new-history-of-western-philosophy
Then you will be in a better position to decide what to explore next.

I couldn't get past the very first page without feeling like a retard.
Also, Kant is basically Christianity for nostalgic secularists, so you're not missing much.

Nostalgic atheists/agnostics.

Kant is actually probably the best gateway for turning atheists into Christians.
