I am so glad I read ...I just discovered your blog. I am so glad I read this. I am a Ph.D. strident in clinical psychology, I am on internship and am struggling with my dissertation. Internship is a husge challenge because I have never experienced a workload like the one I have at this site and I have worked as a masters level therapist for 20 years prior to starting the Ph.D. I had to take an extended medical leave from internship because I developed a severe infection and had to have part of my foot removed (I am an insulin dependent diabetic). I told myself that during my rehab I would turn lemons into lemonade by doing some dissertation writing. Instead I just stare at the computer screen. Thank you for posting this story. I don't feel so alone in my desire to say "Fuck it all!". <br />Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13842754171580577306noreply@blogger.com
