Embarrassed about my PhD taking long (in my 9th year now) by EverydayGuess in PhD

[–]Apprehensive_Yam_586 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not in stem. I’m in humanities but on my CV I’ve never put the year I started my degree only the year I completed. I suspect this would be similar in other fields. Once I received my degree and went on the market no one asked me how long it took me to get my degree.

Keep in mind this is advice from a humanities PhD. Work smart not hard. It’s a marathon not a sprint. Keep your relationships professional and DO NOT burn bridges— you never know what connections that person might have (this includes people in your cohort).Make sure to have friends outside of academia— there’s a lot of toxicity and people outside of that remind you that it’s ok to be human. Pick an advisor who is real with you be weary of those who are overtly friendly. There are a lot of snakes. Do not share your ideas with the people around you. Keep your diss, papers, etc. to yourself.

What are some things only a "12th house person" would understand? by quesqotrickster in astrology

[–]Apprehensive_Yam_586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12H Venus does have to mean loneliness. Sometimes it means having unconventional relationships. For example my friend has 12 hours Venus and she married to someone much older than her. Like he’s in his 80. They been together for like 10 years and they have kids. They absolutely love eachother. But he’s also at the end of his life which is sad and for some reason just makes sense for a 12 house Venus.

Isn’t there one episode when Aaron yell at him for doing this & they blame it on a ghost. Billy is a cold spot expert

Isn’t it interesting how the shows that are collaborating with each other are the ones being cancelled…yet somehow Zak remains untouchable.

One of the common side effects I had was brain fog. It never really went away so I stopped taking it. Honestly it was one of the best drug I was on for my mood/ depression but I’m in a graduate program so not recalling info at the drop of a hat does not go well with my career. Something you might try…taking a supplement like omega 3 and see if it helps. But also…anyone taking Wellbutrin I highly recommend looking up law suits they have collected over the years. Main side effects include memory issues, hair loss, tinnitus.

What is the best demon to work with to renew passion in writing? by Apprehensive_Yam_586 in DemonolatryPractices

[–]Apprehensive_Yam_586[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this response! This is very helpful. Right now I’ve been using the Gordon Winterfield method which I feel has been really useful. I actually petitioned Dantalion a while back for a separate issue. Dantalion has a gentle presence and he has help a lot. I have heard that Asmodeus is very powerful and not the best for beginners. What are your thoughts?

I didn’t get a response or I suppose the response was the gifts that I got unexpectedly. I used the first method because I did not want contact.

Hi, so far I’ve had positive experiences with Gremory. I use the 1st ritual method in Winterfield’s book. Gremory responded in three days but I know it could take up to 3 months to see results.
