Posted by WittyGem88I feel that anxiety manifests itself differently I can talk more in depth about how my anxiety spawns from depression and vice versa but not anxiety by itself. It's great he has a support system in the form of you.Posted by aquasnozInterested to see the responses. My aqua ex had depression which drove him to alcoholism. My aqua bf just developed anxiety 3 weeks ago and now just recovering. He gets dizzy when he has his attacks. I want to understand it better in aqua perspective as I want to know what I can do for him.
Interested to see if there are other aquas out there who are either suffering from depression or anxiety or bit of both as I'm very fascinated at how our belief systems are formed especially how rooted and environmental they can be even if it appears to be malleable.
1. What is your general outlook on life
2. How would you describe yourself in the eyes of a stranger
3. Do you have a theory in how your belief systems formed
Obviously this is a safe space just keep the details impersonal unless you're really up for sharing but if you're like me some details are just better left out. I've just started seeing a psychologist after ignoring it for the better part of almost two decades and it's equally as interesting to see it through the lens of astrology.
Astrology or not I'd definitely like to hear some stories big or small. I think I've similar thread somewhere here in the past but many new faces and many new opinions and as always I prefer to start fresh.
Other signs feel free to chime in or even just to say hi. Just know that I'll be personally more interested in Aquarius + pisces placements as it has been shown in the past their thought process mirrors mine more closely.click to expand

Posted by SeleukosThat's very similar to how I would describe mine. Which I guess is what my therapist is trying to work out because I don't have a very deep emotional response to grief and loss either. When I tried to describe it I couldn't either. It really forced me to dig up the past to which I think we arrived at the conclusion that I was never given the chance to experience after an attachment.
Aqua with clinical depression here.
Regarding your three questions:
1. Optimistic nihilism
2. Cold and uncaring
3. Mostly formed through constant deprivation in all possible areas
The relationship with my depression is weird and according to what therapists have said to me so far somewhat uniqe. I deal with it in a very detached, uncaring way and when it hits in form of grief or a physical form of panic attack it mostly happens as something that doesn't feel like it's a part of me.


Posted by MyStarsShineHey hey 🙂 Nice to see some old faces! Art and music are definitely my outlet and slowly getting back into it! I'm definitely pisces dominant which I suppose I should be thankful for as it almost lifts a bit of that stubbornness away haha. But I do wonder as I tend to analyse other aquas and most of them appear to have their head screwed on better!
Hi Aquasnoz....long time no see. We joined the same year...I was Starlover...good to see you back
Sorry to read about your depression. I hope you find ways to manage it. Keep making music and talking about it. I sense you and seleukos will get on well?
If I remember correctly, you are Pisces dominant?
🙂

Posted by SeleukosThanks for sharing! I appreciate the honesty here as a lot of people loves to fluff it up. If you don't mind me asking because of your experience do you have an innate ability to make others feel good about themselves?Posted by aquasnozI accept nihilism as a fact that can't be denied. There is no purpose, reason or cause but instead of feeling despair over it I see it as something positive. It is mostly based on Nietzsches concepts.Posted by SeleukosThat's very similar to how I would describe mine.

But I'm interested in your optimistic nihilism, what drives you to move forward, what part of it is the optimistic.
My problem is that there isn't much that drives me forward anymore. The only times I keep pushing forward is when I'm annoyed and act on emotions and instinct. Other than that I don't really care about this world anymore but this is not due to the nihilism part and more because of my displeasure with how humans act and behave.
My personal experiences with human beings only added onto that.click to expand


Posted by justagirlHola mah fav twin! It's funny because I know a lot of saggies that deal with anxiety so I'll just gently pat your placements! Jokes aside though saggies are also super resilient and self preserving.
👋 hai Snozie! Miss you around these parts.
Sorry you guys are dealing with depression. I've been pretty fortunate that I haven't dealt with much of it. I do get anxiety from time to time, which is usually brought on by being overwhelmed with emotions and loss of control. I just try to breath through it and get away if I'm in a crowd.

Plus I wouldn't worry too much, Depression is a thing that I've lived with for a long long time. Lucky enough to not be part of the statistic last year so I've been encouraging and participating in a lot of open discussions as I can only imagine the amount of people so closed up like I was about everything (and probably still am).click to expand

Posted by justagirlOkay now that IS interesting because that's the one consistent thread I've been hearing not only from myself but others.

I think I dealt with many of those demons (what I call them) when I was younger. I survived a suicide attempt and it changed me. When I have bad moments I just chant to myself- it will get better. Glad you are seeking help and talking about it.click to expand

Posted by SeleukosFor me It's Jupiter in Cap but I do have Cancer in MC. But I guess I suppose the rigidity has never been there for me it becomes harder for me to decipher how I want to shape the future.Posted by aquasnozI'd say not but everything I know insists that I do. Maybe it's the Jupiter in Cancer conjuncting the MC.Posted by SeleukosThanks for sharing! I appreciate the honesty here as a lot of people loves to fluff it up.

I think the cause in both our cases share similarities but I can't say for certain. Though I'm still trying to wade through the crap I'm pretty certain mine has to do with attachment issues and difficulty handling it when it's formed.
Difficulties are also present in matters of intimacy etc., at least in the common sense.click to expand

Posted by MoonshineLeoMaybe it is the Aqua stereotype with detachment. It's definitely not one that I would've related to even just a few years back. I care for people purely for the fact it was never given to me and it's a real shame for others to end up like me. But thank you I do see common instances where happiness feels forced which then in itself becomes a catalyst of an opposite reaction.
My aqua friend in high school had really bad depression and anxiety, still does. We tried talking about it years ago and we came to the conclusion that he gets it from trying to make everyone around him happy. He felt like he has to lie to important people in his life and lying causes more lies and more lies then it gets out of hand then you have all this anxiety. It also comes from being so detached that you feel bad for not feeling bad. I think you guys are very deeply caring souls and i wish you guys happiness.

Posted by ImpulsvI felt as if I was at that stage having gone through a cycle of trying to change, reverting back, trying to change to ignoring it and accepting. Part of me feels hollow without meaning even if it never really did the assumption was I could fill it. Personally I haven't found anyone but in some respects I don't feel I'm deserving of anyone due to the way I am. In most cases I end up hurting others more.
I stopped seeking
Accepted the mundane things in life n yes this is all there is in life
Since I’ve accepted my nightmares I’m just going about it day at a time
Maybe I mea t to be alone
So I am n thoroughly enjoying it.
I would get in to tail spin when things didn’t go as planned so now I expect nothing

Posted by compyI feel that may be true in some respect but not in the way most people view it. My Depression flared up the worst when it should have been the happiest in my life (been with the love of my life for 4 years). I almost feel responsible for half the threads created here asking 'wtf happened to this aqua'. So it's definitely not something that love can heal and although it patched up some rough spots here and there it definitely didn't 'fix' me.

Posted by SeleukosYeah I'm not sure what it is as I honestly consider myself to be a cold person too but that might be might internal thoughts. I've been told many times that I have a very warm and comforting aura. I think I die a little everytime I hear that.Posted by aquasnozPosted by SeleukosGemini!

Hm, I guess the constant is the Cancer MC then.click to expand


Posted by TellMeImPrettyI don't think it's something we're aware. At least it's not something I'm fully aware of. I'm not sure how it manifests in Aquas which is why I'm interested because I've always been more keen to prevent slipping. It's also interesting that a lot of people mention 'thinkers' tend to think themselves into a corner but it just boggles my mind to think that no one else has come across the same thoughts.
I work with an aqua who is always anxious and depressed. He’s a really cool and nice guy and is often upbeat, but then he’ll come into work one day and you can just tell from his vibe that he’s not having a good day. We had a long discussion one day about how basically every guy in his immediate family has bipolar disorder— including him. There’s obviously a genetic factor there, but I think with aquarians there is just so much deep thinking and questioning that takes place just because of who you guys are... and unfortunately overthinking can transform into depression and anxiety. Makes sense really.

Posted by The_eleventh_sign_11This is where I feel support systems are really important. This is also why working in Darlinghurst for me was both a distraction and fuel for my disorder. There's so many interesting and vibrant exciting things happening but there's also some bleak, gloomy, dark things you experience.
My general outlook on life is that it’s good but there’s a lot of work I need to put into areas and I tend to use social media, food, booze and drugs as a distraction so I don’t deal with certain things. I need to learn to rip bandaids off and sit inside of the uncomfort zone and not cringe everytime I need to do shit.
I think people perceive me as tall, happy, stupid, genuine and eccentric.
My theory on my beliefs is easy to understand “nothing is good or bad thinking makes it so” I cultivate good thinking by opening myself to experiences that Spark my interest and puts me outside my comfort zone.
Two weeks ago I finished work and helped this Thai girl at my work finish counting money (no one talks to her because she doesn’t speak good English) so after work she asked me to talk her home which I thought was weird, we go to her place and then she takes me to a restaurant that’s open at 4 in the morning and we go in and it’s full of Korean kids and they’re all loud and having a great time and the atmosphere was awesome and my workmate and I sat down to a great meal and we drank illegal beer from a teapot and just sat in a really nice atmosphere (its was a dive) but I love dives and it was moments like that, that I cherish and I know that makes me happy so I’m very much open to experiences that expand my awareness especially in Sydney.

Posted by WittyGem88I'm probably the least qualified person for an answer because I'm pretty new to anxiety myself. If he doesn't flake on you then just take it as a good sign it's not really creeping into other areas of his life. I have a session on thursday and just thinking about it keeps me awake even though I know full well there's nothing to be afraid of so *shrugs*.Posted by aquasnozPosted by WittyGem88I feel that anxiety manifests itself differently I can talk more in depth about how my anxiety spawns from depression and vice versa but not anxiety by itself. It's great he has a support system in the form of you.Posted by aquasnozInterested to see the responses. My aqua ex had depression which drove him to alcoholism. My aqua bf just developed anxiety 3 weeks ago and now just recovering. He gets dizzy when he has his attacks. I want to understand it better in aqua perspective as I want to know what I can do for him.
Interested to see if there are other aquas out there who are either suffering from depression or anxiety or bit of both as I'm very fascinated at how our belief systems are formed especially how rooted and environmental they can be even if it appears to be malleable.
1. What is your general outlook on life
2. How would you describe yourself in the eyes of a stranger
3. Do you have a theory in how your belief systems formed
Obviously this is a safe space just keep the details impersonal unless you're really up for sharing but if you're like me some details are just better left out. I've just started seeing a psychologist after ignoring it for the better part of almost two decades and it's equally as interesting to see it through the lens of astrology.
Astrology or not I'd definitely like to hear some stories big or small. I think I've similar thread somewhere here in the past but many new faces and many new opinions and as always I prefer to start fresh.
Other signs feel free to chime in or even just to say hi. Just know that I'll be personally more interested in Aquarius + pisces placements as it has been shown in the past their thought process mirrors mine more closely.
One thing that really hits home though is loss of control. As you know when you dwell in the depths too much you lose grip on reality and when you're no longer in control if who you are or at least the image of who you are to others it makes me super nervous at dealing with everything even so much as picking up a phone call. My dizziness is due to not being able to breathe and what helps is truly just reminding myself to breath.
You could really just make a joke and buy me a respirator or something lol. breeaaaathe.
Hey @aquasnoz thank you! That is so true. My aqua said something about feeling the pressure to become successful and yet not being able to control the outcome of many things he is doing. He wants to keep pushing but at the same time, he feels tired to do sobecause he already did a lot. He was like that for a week and even saw a doctor because of too much dizziness from overthinking. He started playing video games to take his mind off of things. Recently hes been getting better because he already planned his trip to see me. I do wonder though, if his anxiety will come back after his trip is done... and also what other ways do you use to distract yourself from being anxious?click to expand

Posted by WittyGem88Not very well that's for sure. I'm not currently with anyone, nothing serious anyway. Lots of details with different partners but ultimately it never ends up well and it's hard to distinguish whether it's me or them at times.Posted by aquasnozFortunately, he isnt flaking on me now. He did for 2 days. That was the first and last time. Hes been really clingy and needy lately though. Which i do hope is not due to him supressing his anxiety. Does your SO know about what youre going through? How does she support you?Posted by WittyGem88I'm probably the least qualified person for an answer because I'm pretty new to anxiety myself.

Posted by aquasnozHay well if you’re still in Darlinghurst let’s catch up for coffee sometime I’m working at one of the bars on oxford st.Posted by The_eleventh_sign_11This is where I feel support systems are really important.

I guess this is where the brain works differently as I can't stand social media and the experiences (the bad ones) outlined above also paints a negative picture for me about drugs and alcohol even if I'm always surrounded by it. I just never liked losing control because suicide idealisation might just become actuation if I'm not careful.click to expand
Posted by compyi'm happiest when im in a relationship (sometimes i think i got a stellium in Libra) but i have no libraPosted by justagirlSometimes is being alone in disguise. Any single happy Aquarians around? I guess no.Posted by aquasnozPosted by justagirlHola mah fav twin! It's funny because I know a lot of saggies that deal with anxiety so I'll just gently pat your placements! Jokes aside though saggies are also super resilient and self preserving.
👋 hai Snozie! Miss you around these parts.
Sorry you guys are dealing with depression. I've been pretty fortunate that I haven't dealt with much of it. I do get anxiety from time to time, which is usually brought on by being overwhelmed with emotions and loss of control. I just try to breath through it and get away if I'm in a crowd.
Plus I wouldn't worry too much, Depression is a thing that I've lived with for a long long time. Lucky enough to not be part of the statistic last year so I've been encouraging and participating in a lot of open discussions as I can only imagine the amount of people so closed up like I was about everything (and probably still am).
🤗
I think I dealt with many of those demons (what I call them) when I was younger. I survived a suicide attempt and it changed me. When I have bad moments I just chant to myself- it will get better. Glad you are seeking help and talking about it.click to expand
Posted by TellMeImPrettythis reminds me of Smokey Robinson, Aquarius sun/Cancer moon
I work with an aqua who is always anxious and depressed. He’s a really cool and nice guy and is often upbeat, but then he’ll come into work one day and you can just tell from his vibe that he’s not having a good day. We had a long discussion one day about how basically every guy in his immediate family has bipolar disorder— including him. There’s obviously a genetic factor there, but I think with aquarians there is just so much deep thinking and questioning that takes place just because of who you guys are... and unfortunately overthinking can transform into depression and anxiety. Makes sense really.




Posted by aquasnozI will say that even when he battles the self-doubt anxiety causes, he still never loses sight of his promising future. He's one who sincerely believes the sky is the limit, and he never stops trying to progress. Even when he has those moments where he feels stuck, he knows it's temporary. He trusts with all his heart he will be a great success. I think that's how he remains optimistic. Even when the present is trying, he sees the light at the end of the tunnel, because he's confident in his abilities. ☺
@Keres - thanks for sharing I truly appreciate it especially with some similar circumstances does he ever explain his optimism? I have it too but I honestly have no idea where it comes from. If your tag line is right I'm assuming he's also around my age group be interesting to hear a bit more about him.
@GC05 - I live off coffee haha. I think one more session, there's a few things I need to determine with my shrink but it can be bipolar I and she said that would explain why the medication never worked for me all those years ago.

So this depression problem goes for most aquas...
I thought I was the only one!!!
This happens coz of too much overthinking multiple things at same time...even though we don't want it...it just keeps revolving around head...
Sometimes I wish to die, so everything could just stop..my questioning would stop...and I can have a one complete clear breathe for one last time 😊

Posted by Aquaman4848Well I think that might be a bit of an overstatement. I would've thought Aquarius are more resilient to depression to some extent. Or maybe we just all never talk about those yucky things called emotions.
