Re:I've procrastinated working on my thesis for more than a ... by dekleinewolf on Friday January 20, 2023 @04:18AM (#34450683)
My master thesis, which is supposed to take 8 months, took me 2 years and 4 months.

Every morning I would wake up and think 'today is the day I will do good work!'. And every night I would go to bed and feel terrible and like a failure because no, I did not write or even read a single line. In hindside, I was definitely depressed during these days. I wish someone had told me I needed to get help for my mental health.

I only 'snapped out of it' because of how the student loan system in my country works, and there was a huge financial incentive to finish it before a certain date.
