So..I made the decision. At this point, I am not going to continue my PhD. I sent the email to the chair of my committee..it is official. I am sick to my stomach, but I do think that I made the right decision. It is a scary thing..making such a big decision. I am doing it because I think that it will make me the happiest in the long run. My heart is just not there right now...not so fun times. Plus, I suppose it doesn't help that I am sick right now and laying on the couch feeling sick everytime that I move.
