How Leos Typically Behave When Depressed

When Leos are depressed, they may withdraw and isolate themselves, despite their usual outgoing nature. They often struggle with feelings of low self-esteem and may hide their emotions. Understanding their need for support can help them recover and regain their confidence.

Do they isolate themselves? Cause i have a Leo friend who recently lost his job, and i know hes pretty upset, and hes pretty much keeping to himself lately..which is not like him. Just wondering..

"if they suddenly have no money they may feel bad and stay in because they like to spend on entertaining others and demonstrating material success seems to be important to them."

Yep! thats kinda how he is. He's always mad if he has no money. Maybe thats why hes isolating himself. He hasnt talked to anyone in like...3 days lol.

I'm a Leo with a Taurus moon..

I isolate myself when I'm depressed, IF I'm not getting any social interaction. I don't really fall into depression under any circumstances as long as I keep social interaction up... however once that's gone, Leo's are bound to be depressed!

As far as how we react, I'd look at a person's moon. I've found that you show the personality of your moon when you're emotional.

I'm also Leo with Taurus moon and Scorpio rising lol, but I don't get depressed often (maybe because of Taurus moon). But yeah, when I am depressed I tend to isolate myself too, I think it's quite normal because we Leos, we like to be always with good mood and make a good impression when we are with people around.

Not a pretty site..I have been depressed myself for awhile. I can't seem to pull out of it. I have a total lack of interest in going out or being with my friends...Really would just like to be alone until it passes..

i pretty much agree with what everyone else has said here. i purposely isolate myself so that i can sort things out. sometimes this takes a month, sometimes a couple days. it all depends on how quickly i'm able to regain a positive perspective.
