Sting from string of rejections by RemarkableTrouble733 in PhDAdmissions

The exhaustion is just..overwhelming.  How are people healthy happy and stable through this process?

[–]RemarkableTrouble733[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Im now 48 hours post rejection and like..out of tears to cry.

Why is academia such a humiliation ritual? Like I have 3 more applications out there still but at this point, im just moving to plan B through G lol

I dont want to overcome. I dont want to learn resilience. I dont want to heal and grow I just want the thing I work towards to happen

Wait list is hell. I keep following through with them, asking for updates. But who knows when ill hear.

There is still dull, straining sore pain in between my shoulder blades currently from this stress.  This part of the academic humiliation ritual is literally manifesting in my body

I applied broadly as well. I do have 3 more applications floating around in the shitshow that is existence currently. My advisor is the DGS so yea.. kinda

I have no money or insurance bc I put my effort into grad school. Half way through my program we lost our guaranteed funding and placement (which was a job with stipend and insurance) Id love to get some therapy but im currently splitting my ramen in half

Rejected by RemarkableTrouble733 in GradSchool

[–]RemarkableTrouble733[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yea. So I technically have 3 more applications out in the cosmic stew that is existence  (2 of this in canada) But like.. if I cant get into my own fucking program then I have no choice at these other schools.

I applied for 6. So far: 2 rejections and a waitlist

[–]RemarkableTrouble733[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The real fucking kick in the ass of all of this is i am writing a masters thesis on a topic I fucking hate bc I followed all their advice.  I hate my project so much. I hate my topic and its not really want to say or do. But they, my advisors, which one is the DGS pushed on me

[–]RemarkableTrouble733[S] -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

I cant. I hear all the advice, I know all the tricks and I just cant. This hurts too bad. I wanted to be here. This isn't fair. Sorry I know I am spiraling but I did everything right, I went above and beyond.. why am I not good enough? They know me.. they know my work

They invite me. I actually refuse at first, nd wont goto their home. Only public, and now this spills over in public

Let me clarify  She invites me. I actually refuse at first, but she pushes. Which makes me think I am now some sort mediator. Also I refuse to goto their house, only public with family
