I took PhD admission two years back in Capella University with a prospect of completing it without much havoc.

Methodology section holds the core of your paper. It is the proof that which scientific method is used. After doing the research, clearly mention answers to these two questions.

When I was writing my research methodology, my supervisor advised me to explain the collection and analysis of data. You must explain to the readers why you chose a particular approach. They need to know that the collection of data is valid in the field of study.

I totally understand you. PhD is a lonely experience and you should only quit it when you feel like you can’t bear the contractions anymore. But you must understand that there are peaks and valleys in PhD research and you can finish it much conveniently than you think you cannot. It’s just that you need motivation. May be you can look for some motivation from your adviser or your colleagues. If you have survived these two years in the doctoral program, then it’s worth continuing.

It is your decision! You should only do what you love. So there are no issues if you are not loving this phd life. You know what, take a break and stop thinking about your research for a month. Get connected to nature, walk by the ocean to refresh your mind! And in this break, see if you are happy without PhD or not, do whatever you love, roam wherever you always wanted to and anything thrilling. If you are still unhappy, then it is not your PhD but some other issues that are introducing negative vibes. It is entirely your call!!!! If you want to continue, go for it. If not, think again.
