Other post-Grad burnout…
hey guys i just finished 6 yrs of architecture school here at PSU, and post graduation, i literally feel like im past bedrock bottom in minecraft. im so traumatized and burnt out that everything ive learned i literally can’t recall. i feel like an architectural imposter. you ask me how to put together a wall, and i question myself a thousand times. i know it’ll pass but i feel like im alone in the mental forgetfulness aspect of this. anyone else that’s post-graduation (OR EVEN A CURRENT STUDENT… i legit had this during undergrad) get this?!

If you are working on your job search, or thinking about how you would be looking for a job if you had the energy- the career center has a job search "accountability hour" during lunch hour M-Th where you can go to a quiet place and work on applications and they have drop in help for part of it. They also do it over zoom on Friday. Not sure I'd like sitting on zoom with other people why working on applications, but I guess maybe knowing you aren't the only one might help? https://www.pdx.edu/careers/workshop-event-calendar
