    Finish the paper, or don’t, the outcome is the same. You don’t have to worry about the paper anymore. Which is what really matters here.

    The second way is easier.

      I can still remember the dread and the moment you cave and just say “whatever I won’t do it” because you’re exhausted before starting it. School without medication was hell

      It was unfortunate to learn that work did not have the concept of semesters and you couldn’t just write off an assignment from your boss as ‘well I’ll get a zero from that one, but there’s always next semester’. They just keep bugging you about it over and over even though clearly I’ve moved on already.

      Semesters were a much easier ‘reset’ than getting fired was.
