Any other Virgo moons strive for perfection to the point of detriment?

I have noticed that the Virgo moons around me struggle with not being perfect. It is so bad that they drive themselves into depression.

I remember this girl crying after she took her written drivers test because she thought she failed it. We were only in 10th grade, 15 and unable to drive! But she was so upset over it and stayed after school to wait for her teacher to correct the grades but the teacher never showed. She ended up getting a 92 so all that worrying wasn't even worth it IMO. She is an Aries sun btw.

Another kid in my school who was a Virgo sun and moon took his own life after he found out he failed a state test for graduation. The sad part is that he had 2 more chances to take the test!

My little nephew, 5, also a Virgo sun/moon gets really upset when he doesn't win/ isn't the best at a game or something.. Sometimes he smacks himself for it.

So I'm wondering if this is a Virgo moon problem or is it something else?

I am the same but not to the some of the extremes listed. I organize in my head so everything can be perfect - or as close to - beforehand. The scratching out would bug me too!

At work, I practice efficiency and organization to the max. I can prioritize my piles, roll up my sleeves and get my sht done like nobody's business.

But at home it's a lil different. I think if I didn't have kids I would drive my own self cray. They kind of bring me down to earth...or I just feel bad nagging and ragging all the time. Towel not hung up properly (straight not crooked), keep all closet/cabinet doors closed, stack those plastic cups right - on the 2nd shelf, because on the 1st shelf is glass only. Really!? Ughhh ANAL. Sometimes I have to give myself a timeout 😢
