I’m exhausted.
I’ve had meltdowns.
The journey to getting my doctorate is such a humbling process. I’m tired of not being good at things and constantly making mistakes. It just gets exhausting. However, this video I think actually describes what I’m going through quite well.
When you go through any transition and compare yourself to other people who have been around longer than you, it’s not a helpful or fair comparison. I am going to “see ghosts” and look insane at times. But maybe that’s just part of the process. I don’t have to like it though. Lol.
Teaching is something that has also been more humbling than I thought it would be. Everything has been such a surreal experience because I never thought I would make it this far honestly.
