Thought I wouldpost that I have updated my blog after going to a conference.
Hi everyone
I am a second year PhDs student, recently I have become very down, I try and avoid social situations, for example I will chat to the guy on the desk next to me, but when everyone goes to the bar on a Friday I only stay for maybe 30 mins then make up an excuse to leave. My friends will sometimes call me and I will let it go to answer phone then come up with an excuse why I can't talk. I live in a house where I have two housemates, I mostly just spend time in my room alone, I eat alone, watch tv alone etc.. Recently I have begun working later and later as I feel I am not doing enough.
I always do extra at uni, ie. Showing guest lecturers around, out reach activities at weekends etc. but when it comes to my personal life I'm struggling with social interaction.
Does anyone have any suggestions with what's wrong with me or is there anything I can do?
Hi all

Hi all
Just coming up to the end of my first year next month. A lecturer came up to me today and said they had noticed how hard I was working and said I need to take more down time. I feel guilty if I don't work in the evenings when I get home and find it hard to do other things like watch movies without feeling bad. Has anyone else experienced this?
