Struggling with the transition from master’s degree to PhD
I am doing the PhD in the same group where I did my masters. It’s been a few months now, experiments were not working and I feel like I’m really lost and confused. I have started feeling anxious for increased periods of time now, which I’m sure is not healthy. I wonder if it’s because my master’s thesis went too smoothly and I am unfamiliar with when you have to struggle as a result.
