“If you don’t have a mental breakdown, is it really a PhD?”

This provocative question highlights a critical issue in academia: the mental health struggles that many scholars endure. At Surviving STEM, we aim to challenge this narrative by fostering a culture of support and resilience. This page serves as a space for individuals in STEM to share their journeys—stories of overcoming challenges, seeking help, and finding solutions. By amplifying these voices, we hope to build a community where open dialogue about mental health is not just encouraged but celebrated.
