To all Ph.D. students struggling with the question: "Should I continue or leave my Ph.D.?" - you are not alone. Pursuing a Ph.D. is a unique and demanding journey, and sometimes, the best way forward is to reflect deeply — even if that means considering leaving your program. Our new article written by Tijana Perović, PhD and edited by Julia Kolodiazhnaia and Olga (Olya) Vvedenskaya, MD, PhD offers an honest, empathetic guide to navigating this tough decision. We know it's a sensitive topic. But it is very important to talk about this part of academic path. #PhD #MentalHealth #AcademicMentalHealth #PhDJourney #PsychologicalSafety
