Re: tw:suicide tl;dr

[(Anonymous)]

People fuck up. Fucking up once (even if it is a massive fuckup that involves a whole string of lesser fuckups) does not determine, or even predict, the course of the rest of your life.

Additionally, winning the Nobel prize does not confer immunity from fucking up, or make you a universal authority whose opinions are the final word on everything. Linus Pauling (a Nobelist) told the chemist Dan Schechtman, the discoverer of quasicrystals, that there was no such thing as quasi-crystals--only quasi scientists. Since Pauling died well before Schechtman was awarded the Nobel prize for his discovery, I suppose he was spared the distress of having to eat his words while looking like a total shmuck. One hopes that Tim Hunt will not be spared.

And do the people in your lab seriously pretend that they have never missed a deadline? Never been late returning a paper they've been asked to peer-review? Never fucked up a procedure? Never been dead wrong about something major in their field? Permit me to doubt it! Such paragons may exist, but I'm sure I've never met one. And as others have pointed out, they fucked up majorly with your training!

Do you feel safe telling your therapist that you often think about suicide? If you do, I think you should tell her.

Please take care of yourself, anon.
