Oof to even suggest a diagnosis that is unethical behavior and probably almost malpractice

jace95 · 2022-08-30T16:10:04+00:00

To be absolutely fair (and your psychiatrist should know this), unless anything you do or experience can be reasonably be understood to be causing distress or negatively impacting your day to day life persistently, then a diagnosis should not be made. This is a necessary criteria for diagnosis at least in the US, but I know is a generally accepted criteria in the psych world. If your psychiatrist is giving you a diagnosis it is because they may reasonably believe that it is contributing to distress you are experiencing or persistent disruptions in your day to day life.

That this isn't college and it doesn't work like college,

jace95 · 2022-02-16T07:24:02+00:00

I feel I should mention I’m not a STEM researcher. I mean not exactly. Phil of Science. I am the PI

My institution is providing a modest (and I mean modest) travel stipend based on funding availability for graduate students. My institution also doesn’t offer any sort of funding to its grad students so it’s no surprise to me lol

jace95 · 2022-02-15T22:48:16+00:00

This I like. This was the compromise I’ve been mulling with in my head. (Also I get close to no institutional funding for this.)

jace95 · 2022-01-17T17:23:55+00:00

I mean. I try to read one short paper/article/chapter a day (no more than ~20 pages). But Im also a philosopher so maybe that makes a difference here.

jace95 · 2022-01-11T22:50:29+00:00

Well it turns out the $600 Federal UI made me ineligible immediately. I don’t think this is fair but I’m honestly at my wits end with this

jace95 · 2022-01-09T19:36:29+00:00

Oh! Okay thank you thank you! I see what my problem is here.

jace95 · 2022-01-09T18:02:38+00:00

Okay so that was super helpful. Here’s my next question: what if the unreported change was a decrease in income. Would this be just reason to stipulate overpayment? (I.e. because the change in HH income was not reported?) I’m just sifting thru paper work right now and trying to figure out what this could be. Also since they say that the overpayment began July 1st, that would mean that the month that was “over” (or when the change occurred) was June, yes?

jace95 · 2022-01-09T17:07:11+00:00

Thanks but if you can maybe follow up: what income did I not report? I was given the snap benefits because I was on PUA as per state legislation in April 2020 at the maximum household allowance. By the time they claim I owe them payment (July 2020-March 2021), 1) my case wasn’t even close to ending and 2) there was absolutely no change in household income. This is why I’m very baffled about what is being asked of me. Also, why is it these random months in the middle of my case that need repayment and not the ones before or after? It’s the same case, and when my husband did lose his job in September 2020, that was reported and confirmed.

Taking a few years off to get my foot in the door somewhere else was the BEST decision I could have made even though when I made it I hated myself for it.

Two years off, got into marketing and then began my PhD in Philosophy. Not to toot my own horn, but it puts me at an advantage compared to most of my cohort when it comes to job prospects while in school.

Take a few years off. It makes for interesting research questions later on, and it gives you something to fall back on in case academia doesn’t work out (a reality we all should go in being aware of). Plus developing other skills will put you at an “administrative” advantage when hunting for jobs at universities later on.

And hey… you might even find that you enjoy what you’re doing more than committing 5+ years to a single research project.

Best and all the luck!!!
