Several people have taken me up on this, and I'm glad. I hope it's helpful.

The first year I sent out PhD program applications, I got rejected by *every* program I applied to. It was a rough year.

I am glad social media wasn’t around when I was in this reject-a-thon boat. Hard enough to see close friends - don’t need to read about all the people you don’t even know that well.

The combo package of emotions over happiness for others who you know deserve it mixed with jealousy and frustration at your own losses is exhausting.

Yup. It was the same for me in the last 5-6 years of my teaching career. (I left in 2014.) Almost as bad were the spring break humblebrag posts: “Grading poolside in Cancun LOL” or whatever.

My first TT job promised to hire my partner, then reneged when I accepted. Old men profs at my next TT job stared past me for 5 years in hallways as I foolishly tried to smile and talk to them. This nasty, broken world is not for you--or anyone decent.

The irony is: grad school *acceptance* will often lead to heartbreak, for as long as the job market is so meager and there's a neoliberal war against the university. Nobody should think graduate school is the (only) path to fulfillment.

My brother is 7 1\2 years younger than I but has had a great job all his adult life. I completed college in my thirties. I was envious of him for a long time. Finally, I decided to "forgive" him in my heart and told him I was proud of him. It was a great release.
