Hello everyone, I'm new in this forum. I have come across it while I was surfing the net. I got there by just googling the phrase: I am fed up with PhD.
I have read a few comments and I liked the support among the members.
For me, I feel fed up because I seem to lose the thread of my thesis work. Every time I feel that I have knew my path along, and as I read more, I feel lost more and more. This would be my fourth and final year in PhD and that's what makes things worse. Anyone would expect that reaching this stage means a better vision for the thesis, but unfortunately, for me everytime I proceed, I come across a new thing..
I would be happy to hear your comments.
thanks in advance

Hi skyhoo,

there is a sweet spot in every PhD, when you feel that your PhD is stupid, any child in the nursery school could have done it better, and that there is still so much one could write about the topic. There are still so many ways the data could be analysed, there are new models that can be created. Ah! The joys of being a young researcher!

So, listen to me: WRAP IT UP. Stop reading, stop doing further analysis. Just write what you know so far. If you have time, polish it at the end. PhDs don't finish, they are abandoned. Enough is enough at some point, and there is real life out there (or at least this is what other people say).

Thank you DrJeckyll for replying.
I will try to do that..
