Days until thesis submission: 102

I’m struggling with motivation and mental health leading up to my thesis submission so I thought I’d make a countdown of sorts! Every day I’m going to post my productivity and something that made me smile to help keep me going! My submission date is August 31st so it works pretty well with the 100 days of productivity challenge too, feel free to join :)

book club and then to the library! emotional and motivational support while writing papers is a necessity at this point

any advice for how to push through and start thesis writing when it feels like too much is going on and your head has gone into ultimate denial that the thesis even exists?? I haven’t left the house in 3 days and I have a thesis to write 😭

Actually taking the time to chill and trying to stay off my phone means I’m getting through books at a rate only topped by 13 year old me. This one did make me cry in the literal cafe but thankfully I have a supportive (if mildly confused and concerned) gf :)
