#PGRTakeover

Yesterday it was my turn to run the Bristol Doctoral College's Instagram account as part of their #PGRtakeover series. This was an opportunity to answer that often asked question: what does a PhD student actually do? Of course it does depend on discipline, mode of attendance and proximity to campus. I used my #PGRtakeover to demonstrate some of the things I have learnt to incorporate into my day in order to maintain good mental health and wellbeing, since PhD life can come with many pressures and feelings of isolation.
