The idea of spending years in grad school and not reaping the results is so depressing to me, or contributing more to my depression. I fell into deep depression and struggled to finish. Since then I have lost my self confidence and I think it reflects on how I write my resume and talk to recruiters. I know I have to accept the fact that I need to start from the bottom alongside young fresh graduates who are 14 years younger (and even below the bottom), but the negative-self talk drags me down every time I try, and the misery continues.
