Hi KB,

I was in a similar state while I was writing my last two analysis chapters. I used to stare computer for hours without doing anything, my mind was blocked so was my mental state. I even fell ill due to pressure and had to go to GP few times. Anyhow I managed to write the chapters eventhough they were not upto the standard of my supervisors' expectation. We can never meet that anyway but I am happy that by now I have all chapters ready and now need to develop into a complete thesis. You too will be over that phase. I just kept going thinking that I can't stop at this stage of my PhD. Keep faith in yourself and good luck !

Hi, I started my PhD when my daughter was 3. I am in the third year now. It was not easy juggling with the small child and studies but I am at least happy that I am not behind. Being in the Humanities I do not have to go Uni daily, which makes my life easier...taking care of child and studying as well - much better than job in fact. I get time to be with my child more....

You seem to be super fast Phdbug. It's not even 3 yrs I guess....good luck with yr submission!

I agree with you Patience_1. Internet had been the main distraction for me. When I got stressed with writing the chapter, I was kind of hooked into facebook. At some point I was online in FB almost all the time just to run away from myself and my situation. I got this problem while writing the last chapter - which I found the most difficult ! Seems I am under control now as I changed the pw and I can't log in. I did deactivate my account which did not help either as friends and families started pouring emails/phones. Now, I just decided to be quiet for sometime to concentrate in my work and here I am in the forum to have my motivation back :)

Hi dunni73, Thanks for yr note. Yeah, the supervision meeting today went well. The supervisors are quite happy with what I have done so far. They did not bother for the deadline for the last analysis chapter. Rather, asked me to relax and be positive. My methodology chapter is almost done. Since I am in social science, I do not have stats and graphics. I just need to expand a bit in Methodology which won't take more than a week. Thank u so much for encouraging me when I was so down. Will keep track of this post and keep posting the progress :)

Great !! I have been looking for something like this. Thanks jepsonclough !!!

Hi all, I plan to submit end of this September and thought to join you all to keep me going. I am writing my last analysis chapter. I still need some expansion in Methodology and Conclusion after this. I don't know why, I seem to lose motivation to write this chapter. I feel completely lost in the huge amount of data. I am struggling to have this chapter shaped. In fact, I was supposed to submit it tomorrow but I have not been able to write this time. This is the first time I crossed my set deadline and feeling guilty for not having concentration on it. But, I am feeling positive to tomorrow's supervision meeting. May be I will have some direction to go ahead. I am targeting to have first draft thesis ready in the first week of May. Wish u all good luck with yr work.

Screamingaddabs, seems u have most of the articles I am looking for. Thanks for yr help once again. Next time, I better directly contact you :)

Hi friends,

I have presented in an international conference recently and two more in pipeline. Do u think presenting in 3 int. conferences (very reputed ones in my field) is enough in a PhD period? I cancelled one int. conference last year and one about to cancel (after acceptance) as these comes quite expensive. Looking forward for your suggestion....
