Hey.
I agree with below. I actually withdrew from my PhD as I was having very similar problems that you are having now. I felt that I was turning into a different person, and my sups were judging this person I didnt even know. I have no regrets about leaving, though I made sure I had something to go onto before I did. I'm doing an MPhil instead. Keep going for now, until you have been miserable for a long time. Good luck, and don't worry, however things turn out. People leave, and it's ok!

Hello all

I'm thinking of withdrawing from my PhD. Does anyone have any advice as to whether I should mention skills learnt in the first year (I'm at the end of my first year now) on job applications? I'm currently not mentioning it at all.

Cheers!
Hazel
