David, I think PhD is a long and difficult degree and that's very frustrating sometimes. No matter how much you love your research, when it doesn't work, it doesn't work. At this time you want to kill somebody (mostly yourself or your prof *lol*). But you'll fix the problem and everything will be OK. It is periodic until you graduate and become a normal person!
I actually enjoy my research topic very much. But when a piece of code is not running after 3 days and you get errors which you have no clue about their meaning then it is boring, hell boring...
You know, I FEEL EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. In your mind you have a hope that you'll graduate, but you don't really believe it; and since you don't see results - you believe it even less.

Pantea, I am thinking that maybe you are not enjoying what you are studying. Am I right?
It's called Ph.D.-research-syndrome... but don't worry! you will graduate!!!

Mo, I am sure you are right. There were plenty of frustrations when I was working on my Master's Degree research. I am sure a Ph.D. is worse!
Pantea, I still hope you will answer my question, or at least give it some thought for your own benefit.
