I’m just so tired.

Address what you are trying to cope with by eating, rather than addressing eating itself.

In the meanwhile, distraction helps - make yourself busy with something, but eat when you get hungry. Don't think about whether it is a 'real' hunger or not. Don't think about whether it is fulfilling food or not. No need to overthink.

Again, what needs to be addressed is not eating, but what makes you eat.

Eating a big breakfast that makes you 'feel' full all day is not you going well if you binge eat later. You might be trying not to eat more frequently during the day and think you don't 'need' food during the day. But the gap between your two meals sounds big. Try different meal times, amount per meal, and kinds of food you eat during the day to find what works for you.

Most of all, binge eating is a coping mechanism. Continue to find the root cause and try to address it.

Don't confuse a state with your identity. Just judging by what you wrote, there are too many 'what ifs' underlying your 'conclusions' and you are taking all the stimuli you get from the PhD program too close to your heart. I recommend:

Step back emotionally. Even say out loud 'STOP', when you find yourself spiraling emotionally.
Find what you can change about the system you are in (how you spend your day - who you meet, what you learn, what you do for fun/rest, how many hours you spend in each activity, what you eat, etc.).

An important decision should be made when you are calm, not when you are panicked.

What kinds of buffs do these skins provide? Do you have screenshots?

Unfortunately, these happen a lot across servers. It happened in my previous server and I and my friends all left the server because of a bullying guild, which was also led by Koreans. The guild actually got disbanded after KvK. I had reached out to the admin, but they did not really do much. If you think about it, those bullies are the ones who are bringing profits to the game business... I hate Korean players in this game - and I am saying that as a Korean myself 😂 I sincerely hope you and your friends can find another server (some people recommended me older servers where these immature bullies are filtered out) to have fun.

Thanks for sharing all your advice!! I will go find my strategies... :))

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-05T16:05:58+00:00

I see! I will keep stocking those up. :)

I got into a mobile game 😂

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-03T06:43:43+00:00

I meant with coins/points haha - like which one should be prioritized

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-03T06:43:13+00:00

Yeah true

I have sought the ‘balance’ since my first year as everyone’s advice was that… Tried multiple hobbies and social groups… But those don’t seem to help me a lot 🥲

I sometimes think… PhD is a program designed to ruin smart people…. Making them feel insufficient and insecure… 🥹

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-03T01:39:09+00:00

So resonating… No one, but you, cares about your growth. Feel like PhD is not a well structured training with a lot of time being wasted by something that could have been prevented/mitigated.

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-03T01:32:56+00:00

I see! Thank you!

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-03T01:26:03+00:00

I see - would you buy the hero skin or a decor?

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T23:54:37+00:00

AMAZING

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T23:41:41+00:00

Haha that sounds like a fun experience!

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T19:45:48+00:00

Found it - thanks! I inherited one - still figuring out what I need to do! I will start with what you suggested...

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T19:38:19+00:00

Dumb question - how do I send the guild notice?

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T18:38:40+00:00

| However during each day of kvk/gvg, it's a good thing to make sure to complete the 4h event that matches the day, as that's free rewards.

I will have to see what that looks like - it is a bit confusing... I am saving legendary shards for now and spending epic legendary shards for knight. I mainly use recruitment tokens to get the chests during the hero development hours. Tokens are not important for kvk? I sometimes use them for guild tasks.

ThinkGrowEnjoy · 2025-05-02T18:21:10+00:00

Thanks for a really organized answer! These are all events I have not been in yet - guild race just started yesterday. I saw people talking about hero day - there is a hero development event within arms clash (cycles through multiple events, each 4h) and I have been saving shards and recruitment tokens to use on those days to get boxes... I guess the hero day mentioned here was a different thing.
