@livinginaparacosm I haven't started growing pains yet, but take your time. No one's rushing you, and if they are ignore them. Lack of motivation is something I personally struggle with (I have a research project due in two days that I'm not even halfway done with) and I know that getting motivation is incredibly hard. Anyways, take your time. Your work is amazing!
(Now that I'm reading this it sounds really agressive, I'm trying to be supportive I promise )
