the perception of what 'should' be used to honestly TAKE over my life #academicchatter #academicmentalhealth

It’s about creating an environment that supports you even when your willpower is at its low point, instead of shaming yourself for "not trying hard enough".

To professors in the position of designating textbooks: Choose one textbook. Unless multiple textbooks offer substantially more educational value than the one textbook, please consider how your choice will disproportionately affect students in poverty. With minimum wage at $15/hour, for example, a student has to work a full 7-hour shift to afford that additional $100 textbook. Is the additional educational value worth that much? Or can it be substituted by journal articles available free through the school library subscription?

As a Teaching Assistant, I fell ill and could barely take time off to heal, expected to turn around grading for assignments in a few days. I received nasty comments about not truly supporting students in their learning by not being able to immediately deliver support at 3am in my timezone.

In this moment, it seems doubtful impossible that my degree will ever end -

My perfectionism rears itself as ugly rumination: "I should have changed this analysis." "I should have chosen the right words explain this part better." "I should have known, everything, under the sun." This stuff never ends because this faux problem-solving is my way to cope with the imposter syndrome - I’m trying to find the "right way" to prove that I am not an imposter.

[ proposal stage ] I propose to you these grand ideas, taking ownership perhaps for the first time for these new (twists on existing) designs.

Existing grad students in the lab will have the best idea of what the actual pros and cons are of working with each prof. Trust me, each prof will have their own quirks, and it’s down to whether those quirks will bother you.

If you’re like me, the supportive words above won’t cut it. You’ll still feel the sting of the cringe. It’s extra horrendous if a professor asks you to write your own letter of recommendation. Pretend you’re writing about your best friend.

I realize that life doesn’t work that way outside of school walls. But having spent 82% of my life in school I also can’t fathom that years are neatly chopped into segments with a known ending (i.e., finals).
