Hi all

I have just signed up to this forum and wanted to introduce myself.

I am in the second year of my PhD studies and live 250 miles away from my University which makes it difficult to chat to other PhD students in the same boat. I thought I would give this site a try because you all seem to motivate and reassure each other which I really miss.

Although I am slowly moving forward with my research, I do often hit a wall and need to vent my frustrations with people who know how I feel.

Hopefully this forum is the right place for be.

Wellcome to the forum ClariaN. I am sure this forum is the right place.

Good luck

Welcome ClairaN!

Hi Claira, hope you find it useful. I was in a similar situation (although not quite as far from campus!).

Hi Claira

I live some distance from my uni too (not as far as you!) and have found it really useful to connect with other PhD students online. Hope you enjoy the forum.

Welcome Claira

It is a great forum to be a part of and it will certainly benefit you since you are living away from your university. Do get advantage of this intellectual community and also do not forget to venture on the past threads for more getting insights on the particular topic.

Good luck

Thanks guys

I had to do a conference presentation earlier this month and got chatting to a few other PhD students which was a big motivator, I realised that I'm not the only one who has days where nothing seems to be working out as planned and it gave me a nice big kick.
