How is everudo be doing?

Everyone is currently applying for PhD's it's all very stressful.

I also had the DSA assessment report, and I'm not overly impressed. The lady was awful and didn't listen to anything I said. After reading the report the total for all the random things I said I didn't want nor need but she ignored me, added up to over £2000 which is ridiculous. I don't need or deserve that on any level. And I don't want it, it's such a huge waste of money and I told her I didn't want things etc. But she made so any assumptions about me and judgements gland comments that were unnecessary. I don't know what to do now! Anyway rant over bet sorry this wasn't supposed to be a rant :p




Have you ever looked fear in the face and said "I just don't care"?

Do you think you could be looking at it from a skewed perspective, Hannah, or do you genuinely feel the "extra stuff" is unnecessary? Could you find someone who knows you well to "fact check" with you if that'd be helpful?

i am so behind on my work at the moment with university can't believe I had to ask for extension as yet again my motivation and physical/mental health suffered this week. Im glad I am a friend's house this evening getting a few things done



Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.

Do you have any support in managing your time and your mental health whist studying?

I am struggling with my second assignment that's due in but I am just waiting for a letter from DSA to say whether they are going to grant the recommendations and then I think life will be easier.

How are you?

Hi how are the two of you?
Hope DSA get back to you soon?

I have a meeting in a bit. Anxiety is rocket high and not sure why.

I hope I hear from them soon too. Kinda in desperate need.
They reckon it's a two week turn around and it's been a week an a half already so *fingers crossed*


How was your meeting? I hope the anxiety lessened!

I have to re-write my dissertation. *cries*

I failed it. So have to gain 5% in order to pass. I did my results section entirely wrong but don't understand statistics so can't write it correctly. SO I have zero idea what I'm going to do.

I'm supposed to send my result section to my supervisor by the end of december then work on the rest in the new year.

When I think about it I get a feeling of dread and I feel sick. I really don't want to do it and I have no idea how I'm going to.

Help.




Imperfection is underrated.

Hugs. That sounds hard. Is there like an academic team at your uni to help with stuff like that? Like at my uni they have an academic achievement team who can help with stuff like that on a generic basis.

--
I got my exams deferred but I'm working on one of my assignments and I keep hitting mini walls because it's all so new to me and I barely know what to do, which isn't helped by the fact I've missed 75% of my lectures so missed all the info given out in class about it.

Trying to wing it to just pass *sigh*

Golly, this thread died a horrible death.

How's everyone's uni/college course?

Semester 2 started 3 weeks ago and I've only attended one lecture. But I passed all my assignments bar one (I did it 3 hours before the deadline; not my finest work)

Well done for passing most of your assignments love. What's stopping you attending lectures?

I'm struggling to manage my uni work, I'm falling further and further behind.

Thank you. Haven't been feeling right and it's really effecting me, I have all these nonsensical thoughts that don't stop. So I figured I'd be less stressed if I didn't go into lectures but it's made me even more stressed.

Have you got a personal tutor you can talk to?
