Wow! I am just going through this burnout. I have the symptoms that you mentioned. I was thinking that I was getting sick. You made an impact on how I go about dealing with burnout- learning and getting better. I want to say Thank You so much for sharing your understanding and knowledge to make a difference in your fellow humans live. I wish you all the success, Kira!
I am halfway through my Ph.D. course work and started feeling a bit apathetic about my work. That is when I realized I was feeling burnout. We have to remember all work and no play makes the journey drag on, and we can lose the passion that we have for our journey. That being said, I am committing to do one thing for myself each week. Even if it is something small like taking myself out for ice cream. As long as I am out of the house and away from my computer doing something fun, it helps me recover from burning out.
Thank you so much for this video. Earlier in the week I got some pretty intense feedback from my advisor on my job market paper and lots of modifying need to be done. It was a hastily put together draft but I still didn't expect for there to be so much that are wrong with the paper, he also called me out on not engaging in the literature enoigh and said I wrote better before, and the sad thing is I don't really disagree with him. I don't know if I want to say I don't think doing a PhD and reading a bunch of academic papers suits me or not, but I definitely don't enjoy doing it which is probably why I haven't done a good job of it. I have been paralyzed with anxiety and fear ever since the meeting and have been procrastinating and not be able to get anything done. But watching your video at the very least helped calm me down a little and gave me some perspectives. So thank you very much! 🙏
I'm a masters student, living in Dublin at the moment. I'm also doing my dissertation and it's been actually depression inducing :( thank you so much for this video
I think this may be your best video yet, absolutely amazing!
Thanks Sara!
