Passing a thesis defense and accepting a PhD is a major milestone in a scientist's academic career. The process leading up to this point often involves years of hard work, long hours, and intense focus. This can be physically and mentally draining, leaving individuals feeling exhausted once it is all over.
Yes, it is completely normal to feel exhausted after passing a thesis defense and accepting a PhD. The emotional and mental strain of this process can take a toll on individuals, and it is important to take time to rest and recuperate after such a major achievement.
One way to overcome exhaustion and celebrate this accomplishment is to take a break and do something enjoyable or relaxing. This can help recharge the mind and body. Additionally, planning a celebration with friends and family can provide a sense of closure and recognition for the hard work that went into earning the PhD.
Feeling exhausted after such a significant achievement is typically a short-term effect and should resolve with rest and self-care. However, if the exhaustion persists, it may be a sign of burnout and it may be important to seek support from a therapist or counselor.
It is important for scientists to prioritize self-care throughout the process of earning a PhD. This includes taking breaks, getting enough rest, and engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation. It can also be helpful to set realistic expectations and boundaries for work and to ask for support from peers, mentors, and loved ones when needed.
