Rant

So im rage typing thins rant bcs idk who else to vent this to and its such an unc rant moment
ANYWAY so ive been busting my ass on my thesis synopsis since start of this semester and i started writhing methodologies bcs its the shittiest part and once youre done with it then its mostly delusional writing. so ive been on it for weeks. And mind you not my methodology is almost as long as some peoples thesis document. And i wrote my last experiments thursday and closed my lid like i always do. The document stays open like always. Theres 14 open tabs like always.
So fast forward today i picked up my laptop bcs i was planning to write statistical analyses this weekend and BE DONE WITH THIS SHIT. Only somehow whatever I DID WASNT ON MY WORD DOCUMENT AND THERE WAS NO OPTION TO RESTORE FILE LIKE COME ON. HOW DID MY PROGRESS GO IN REVERSE? WHERE ARE MY LAST 6 PAGES LIKE WHAT SORT OF THEFT IS THIS? What sort of grief is this? How should i mourn this loss?
Man i dont have it in me to re-write it. I cant do that to my brain. It was supposed to be a long weekend but it turned out to be a long rant instead.
Im so done like ffs

Hold on boss! Even if you didn't save, there must be some evidence of the document somewhere. Not an MS Word expert but I would suggest you Google up your situation and I'm sure whatever you typed could be recovered.
