I'm trying to decide if I should do one. For the past two years of my life I've thought it was what I wanted. Now I've finished my undergraduate degree, I've just kind of... stopped caring about it as much.
Half of me wants to get a job and just enjoy my free time, and half of me wants to do the master's – the thing I've told everyone I want to do.
But preparing for it is making me want to kill myself. Literally researching whether my local river, if jumped into, would kill me.

>Should I do this thing I do not want to do
no
You can go back later if you change your mind.

I don't know if I don't want to do it though. I wanted to much to do it before, when I was around other people in academia. Now I'm not, I've lost my drive. What if I would find my drive again once I was immersed in it?

Is your undergrad in something you can get a job in?
I'm in the same boat, but my degree is psych, so I basically HAVE to do something in grad school.
