Description

This book offers a unique perspective on the PhD experience, providing a comprehensive guide to managing mental health during this challenging time. By exploring the lived experiences of both the author and current PhD students, Zoë J. Ayres sheds light on the often unspoken environmental factors that can impact mental wellbeing.

The book delves beyond typical discussions of resilience, instead examining the systemic problems in academia that can affect mental health, such as racism, bullying, and harassment. It also provides practical tips and strategies for managing imposter feelings, prioritising workload, and cultivating self-care habits.

Ultimately, this book is a call to action, urging university institutions to make tangible improvements to create a supportive environment for all PhD students to thrive.
