I am going crazy here
Started by uclaussr
I had to wait until December to get mine. Hang in there.
trust me, even after getting interviews this process is still torture!
lots of
to you. Despite how it may seem on SDN, it's still early in the game. You have months before you should start getting worried!

Totally. 🙂
But just when I start to calm down, I click on 'School Specific Threads', and I see an update on a thread for a school which I've applied to... automatically I panic and think "Oh here we go again. Somebody got interviews and I didn't. Why oh why oh why?!?! I'm never gonna get accepted. It's over. Done. Finito."
SDN is a bad place to be on when you're waiting for interview invites! try to avoid it and it will make you less neurotic, I promise! Its still very early in the game!
This person is right. I was terrified I wouldn't get an interview. Then when I got one, I was sooo happy, until after the interview. Now every day is filled with trying not to drive myself crazy wondering if I'm getting into that school and if I will ever get another interview since my mailbox has now been silent for over a month.
Hang in there, and good luck!
isn't it really more like 10 months?
this process is guaranteed to make you crazy at some point. if you feel yourself getting sucked into a vicious emotional cycle, the best thing to do is take a break from SDN for a week or so. come back when you're not feeling so vulnerable to comparisions with others (who might not even be real, BTW!)
