(Anonymous) 2012-03-14 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)And I think she'd explain that she didn't always have it easy and had plenty of her own moments of self-pity, so don't feel like you've failed just because you're having a rough patch! And then she'd explain that really, her personal life isn't all that great. I mean, she spends most of her time chasing Mulder or being kidnapped, so it's not all margaritas with funtimes with her (sort of non-existent) friends.
And then she'd go on to explain how science is awesome and you should be proud and - then she'd get interrupted by a phone call from Mulder saying he was in what he was 100% was a haunted house used for illegal ghost experiments, and she had to get there pronto because he found a ghost corpse (where she'd reply: ghosts have corpses now Mulder? Really?) and she needed to get there to perform an autopsy before the evidence was scooped away and hidden from their eyes in another conspiracy by the government. And then she'd get off the phone, roll her eyes, tell you not to give up and that you're awesome, and then trudge out the door to follow her wacky partner on another wacky adventure.

This. Scully would encourage you, OP, and probably tell you that she's had times when she felt like she didn't measure up, too. I think it would be helpful if you looked at real people in your chosen field and see what they've had to go to to get to where they are now, and how many of them have had setbacks and times when they had to turn their lives around from a low point. Scully is great inspiration, but trying to compare yourself to a fictional character--when you're never sure how much of the mundane, annoying, realistic details of their life have been glossed over for story reasons or brevity's sake--is always going to leave you feeling wanting.
