As I said, I don't think there's a clear right or a wrong answer...Looking back, I just try to think: if I was convinced that I made the best choice I could given the information/situation/etc at the time, then there is no point in having regrets! | |
| Jul 24, 2020 at 22:08 | comment | added | Acmwx3 | Thanks for your thoughts. Truthfully I think I might be ready to just leave. I don't want to stay in academia anymore and I'm just miserable here. I love actually doing research when I'm allowed to, but those times are few and far between. I'd probably be better suited for an engineering type role somewhere. Not as fun, but I wouldn't be on the brink of a mental breakdown all the time. | |
