My advice:

1. Find a therapist. If the first one or two or six don't work, keep looking.

2. Find something you like to do offline - reading, music (listening or playing), dancing, volunteering, whatever. If the first thing or two or six you try don't work, keep looking. Bonus points if it involves exercise, lots of bonus points if it involves interaction with other people (especially people from different backgrounds than the ones you're likely to encounter in your work / university).

As with all advice (especially from internet strangers), take with a grain of salt. Best of luck!
