So this is a touchy subject and one I don’t feel too comfortable talking about publicly. I’m still very tentative in putting this in writing but there it is: After a very very long period of misery, I don’t think I feel depressed anymore. And that’s such an unfamiliar feeling.

It’s hard in this job. Probably is in every job but academia is what I know. There isn’t enough support and the expectations are too high. I had to relearn to prioritize myself. I had to make peace with letting myself down. Because I did let myself down over and over.

That’s why I am passionate about creating a better, more humane, more compassionate environment in academia. That’s why I fight for URMs and ECRs, and their (our) right to abuse-free, sustainable, healthy working conditions. We must fight and we must destigmatize mental health.

I was crying and so upset last night I didn't realise the boiler stopped working and it was ridiculously cold. Being alive is serious business.
