I'm in a tough point in my #PhD journey as changes in supervisory team are slowing things down and leaving me with a lot of uncertainty, while of course, I have like 1K of deadlines approaching.
So, for the first time in my life, I'm publicly admitting my mental health is in need of a boost, so please send good vibes :)

@phdstudents It's evening here in the UK and I really want to thank everyone today that responded to this post, sending nice pictures of animals and nature. Our world is beautiful and you are all beautiful people, who really cheered me up today. I'll cherish this post and will come back to it every time I'll feel a bit low.
Thank you very much #AcademicMastodon and #AcademicFedi you are really the best 💕
@alx I don't have many cute photos on this device, but I do have some chutney, and making chutney is an act of faith in the future. Sometimes small acts of faith can get a lot done and help with keeping going.
@alx@phdstudents I'm in my second semester of a masters program and I'm already stressed. I can't imagine what you are going through. Sending you a white-lipped mud turtle for emotional support. His name is Mushroom.
@alx I was in a similar journey! My self esteem was utterly destroyed. Luckily a stray angel found me and accompanied me until today. I survived the phd, and has been discovering a ray of light again since!
Your journey is different, but please know that a stranger cares about you, and is waving from the sidetrack.
Here's a pic of some beanies!
