Sources of stress in #gradschool involve accessing training, varying support and supervision, low salary and no housing provided on campus, acquiring skills (advisors can block students from taking certain classes), managing time and working independently, finding friends, and mentors! There were very few on-campus housing options for grad students (they were super competitive but 1/2 the price of the local rental market) and the school I went to closed them towards the end of my stay. As a perpetually single woman I did not feel comfortable living with random people so I lived super frugally ias a grad student (no $$ from parents) but luckily made it work. #mentalhealth #womenempoweringwomen #womeninsteam #highereducation #gradschoolife #phdlife
