I am practically at the end of my third year PhD program in Computer Science, I have not publications, and what is worse from my point of view is that again I have received the same de-motivational feeling after meeting with my supervisor, and again a similar answer as "Regan, no papers for this Phd.".

I would like to work in a paper but as soon as I came with the idea, my supervisor just simply look at me, and shows not approval. I am lost and embarrassed to accept that my thesis will not have any publications, this is very shame from my point of view, so many times I feel that It is better to drop out.

Is this normal ? what exactly am I doing wrong? can I have some advice to see how can I face this ? Or is this some communication issue from my side?

Thank you so much from this desperate and unlucky Phd Student.
Regan.
