I'm on a PhD, but considering an MSc instead: Am I nuts?

Hi, I'm doing a PhD, but I've already got an MPhil and a MSc. If I choose not to continue my PhD, I'd get another MPhil in 10 months.
If you're determined to leave, and there're better options, do what your heart tells you to do. Good luck.

My friend just quit his PhD after 11 months...

When I was young, I thought geting a PhD title is awesome, sounds good.
Now, I've been a PhD student for 3 months, and I don't have any great feeling at all.
It's like some sort of torture. I don't have to courage to try new things, talk to new people...anymore.
But many people think I should finish the PhD....
and I don't think a PhD will make me rich.

Some advice on some personal probs?

Hey Vince, I had the same problem.
I just started my PhD study 3 months ago. I went out with other students and labmates in the first couple months, and began to "hide" away from them.
I'm not used to such social occasions...

Any neuroscience PhD students here?

I'm working with electrophysiology.
