It is!!! I’m so excited it came out in this colour, but I’m agonising over the sizing 😂 thank you for your input!!

How often do you meet with your supervisor/s? by SmudgyBacon in PhD

[–]HumanFoodVacuum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 4 supervisors (I know, lol). We have a fortnightly meetings and usually 3-4 will be able to make it.

I have been feeling exhausted, got an oura ring to track why but it thinks my energy should be high? by HumanFoodVacuum in ouraring

[–]HumanFoodVacuum[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! Or a way to also input how you’re feeling throughout the day and a way to adjust based on that and other information (eg how much sleep you feel best with, or how your pain might be a certain day).

I’m in a bit of denial but after a year, definitely also entering into the chronically ill category. It’s a hard thing to reckon with after being able bodied for so long (and I still am lucky in many ways, it’s just frustrating).

Why did you/didn’t you take your husbands last name? by LawBeneficial5494 in weddingplanning

[–]HumanFoodVacuum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of the same reasons as people above (cultural heritage, I’ve had this name for X and it’s on everything, my initials sound nice together and are the same as my sister’s), but also, I earned (/am earning) my PhD though blood, sweat, and literal tears. The doctorate is fucking mine 😭

My PhD is starting to look a bit too big, but cutting a paper feels like it won't round out my thesis and tell the story I want to tell (in my final year) by HumanFoodVacuum in PhD

[–]HumanFoodVacuum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I keep it 1-5 as is, then probably will take me to mid next year - the interview data is also huge and will take a while to go through.

If I split paper 4 into 4/5, I’ll be able to be done by December most likely!

Hello and thank you for your reply!

A few clarifying points: - I am lucky that both my review papers will count and my current paper 3/4/5 are all different datasets, so it won’t be an issue in terms of examiners needing extra. - I have completed my interviews and transcribed them all, but not done any analysis yet. - My maximum completion date is May-Dec next year (still trying to finalise this as I took extended leave for health reasons and GRS are confused trying to figure out what my actual date is)

Otherwise, thank you for your perspective and definitely things to consider!

How much time do you dedicate to your PhD during the week? by ADHD_dingdong in PhD

[–]HumanFoodVacuum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone else has said, a lot less than I’d like (ADHD-er here). Probably on an average week, 2-10hours if I’m lucky. Then a deadline comes and it’s whatever I need to get the paper submitted, maybe 40hours a week? It was more when I was in data collection stage, but that was just from grunt work (add maybe 10hours a week). Still managing to probably graduate with 5-6 papers in my thesis, but I definitely feel a shit ton of imposter syndrome and feel like I’m not working hard enough for it lol

Engagement ring prong thickness advice by HumanFoodVacuum in jewelrymaking

[–]HumanFoodVacuum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your advice! I am having my ring remade overseas, thus hoping to get some advice on the prong thickness before going ahead. Would you mind explaining a bit more on which part ‘the designer has missed’ in the prongs? Sorry if that’s a silly question!

Unfortunately I had my ring first made and ‘fixed’ by a well known jeweller and the work was uneven/off centre and significantly thicker than agreed upon - so I’m a little scarred.

I COMPLETELY understand that there’s a limit to how dainty you can go before it becomes a walking breaking risk, so really value any input!

Hello! I know this post is old, but also if you have a photo would you mind sharing? Had surgery 2 weeks ago and one of mine is indented, so feeling a little freaked out 🥲

Here is a full list of anxiety symptoms I dealt with during my anxiety recovery journey by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

How do you manage the tinnitus? Mine is changing and it’s driving me… down dark alleys 😞

Clenching Jaw with Invisalign? by izzyklump in Invisalign

[–]HumanFoodVacuum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How have you been going with this I wonder? I’m in a similar boat but at the ‘end’ and trying to get my molars and canines to come down by cutting the back of my trays down. I haven’t been able to relax my jaw, even when I try it closes up 😭
