My name is The PhD Explosion and I have a therapist. <BR/><BR/>Therapists are a necessary part of the PhD process, I actually wish more PhD students used them. It's good to be able to have someone to help you identify blocks and, most importantly, help you figure out how to overcome them.<BR/><BR/>And shame! You hit on one of my finest nerves. I don't think have ambushes from advisors, but I have this deeply imbedded sense of shame that infects not just the PhD. I hope you can let go of the shame as well, and when you do can you let me know how you did it?<BR/><BR/>Cookie dough is yummy, but not quite as helpful as a therapist.The PhD Explosionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17592405119259641894noreply@blogger.com
