Hi xeno! First i just apologize my english. I am new in this forum and english is not my mothertong. I started my phd 7 months ago and I had already many times the feeling that you describe: no money, lake of structure, feeling that nothing is happening, not knowing where this is leading... Insted of always looking what I should do or reach (and not reaching...), it helped me sometimes to look back and make a list of the positive things that I already achieved. there are a lot of small things that one sometimes forget. I also sometimes just look back how far I was 6 months ago and compare with now... that usually makes me feel good and encourage me to continue.
