Perfectionism is our favorite bad habit. There is nothing wrong with wanting to do things well or keeping high standards. On the contrary: you often are and have been rewarded for excellent results. This is however a risc to your mental health if you tend to keep on striving for excellence, even when you start encountering negative consequences.
In the VUB psychological wellbeing survey several VUB PhD candidates indicated that they perceive a lot of mental stress due to their work and show heightened risk for psychological distress. Therefore, the VUB doctoral schools developed together with BRUCC a special program targeting psychological challenges for VUB PhD candidates.
