Are scorpios really psychotic because they seem li

Are Scorpios Psychotic or Insecure

Scorpios are often misunderstood and may appear intense or guarded. Their behavior is driven by deep emotions and a desire for control, not psychosis. Some may struggle with insecurity, but it does not define their character. Understanding Scorpio traits helps clarify their complex nature and emotional depth.

Lol someone answer leogal's question!

I want to know what people will say.

My 2 cents, yes there are many weird ass Scorpio's, but this means that there are just as many 'opposite of weird' scorpios out there too hahah.

PS - I Love female leos! (and i really just could not bring myself to post this message without adding that lol)

I am a female Scorpio and no I don't think ALL Scorpios are like that. I don't know where you meet them. I know several Scorpios and they are very nice people. I think you guys are maybe young. It sounds like it anyway. But I am 55 and I don't believe I fit that mold - My life is full of joy and happiness with my children and grandchildren. My Virgo male friend. My work, my paintings, my writings. I guess by your standards, I would be considered BORING. No fireworks, or drama. Sorry this Scorpio burst your bubble.

Leogal:
Scorpios psychotic?
Whatever gave you that idea? :O

Okay...I just couldn't stand by and let you go on having this misconception about scorpios.I personally think Scorpio is the best of all the other sunsigns...I know my opinion is probably biased since my dad is a scorpio ( The best dad ever!!) and 3 of my closest and oldest friends are scorpios.I still remember how I used to secretly wish for a november birthday when I was a kid...LOL

All of them ...They are the most level headed people you have ever met...very passionate about people and things they care about...also very private...it takes a while to really get to know them but once you are inside that charmed circle they will
stick by you come hell or highwater.I know how much first impressions seem to matter to people and when you first meet them they might seem a bit lets say "out of the ordinary"...but thats just the outer shell.So Leogal please don't jump to conclusions ... I suggest you take your time knowing one well and believe me you will be surprised by their generosity and tenderness.

sorry..I know its a bit long...but as you can see I am nothing but loyal when it comes to scorpios.😛

Yeah,yeah,yeah,geez.I act psychotic but it's usually out of lack of better things to do and a dry sense of humor.It's for fun not due to insecurities,I'd be another boring one who has pretty good control over myself,actually I don't even need to try to.Other peoples tempers usually find me a little bewildered alot of the time because it will be an extreme action for something that should be viewed as petty on that extreme scale.But some may be seriously psychos.Any starsign can be a psycho,that would be like me saying that all leos are psychos because I know one who had a jealousy fit and ran his girlfriend and her mother off the road because she broke up with him.Maybe the ones you know do have issues but it's not an all scorpio thing.Im not apologizing for that.

"do they have serious insecurity issues?" and "are scorpios psychotic?"

yeah, probably. i guess so. erm, don't know really! i can only speak for me. i am occasionally both psychotic and insecure, but the two aren't really related. i'm not psychotic because i'm insecure. actually when i'm insecure i get really quiet, don't say anything and retreat. i don't freak out, at least not out of insecurity issues! guess when i'm psychotic, it's just because that's the way i am. for no particular reason. it's just obsession with a few things.

does that help, leogal—??

I am a scorpio. Most of us have great control. But you have to understand that scorpios are acutely aware of everything around them and sometimes that awareness makes them slightly edgy when someone comes in and starts milling through stuff, shaking things up. One part of us is attracted to people who can shake things up the right way. (creating change that inspires our own creative nature; someone powerful enough to think of someting we haven't already thought of, someone sharp, dynamic.) and then there is the part of us that is very controling and because we are aware of some much we tend to want to keep things more low keep so we don't have sensory over load. Because Scorpios are so intense, we react in ways that other people see as far more serious then we see the reaction as. and, sometimes for laughs and play we will dramatize our actuions not keeping in mind that others mind not get our humor until it's too late.

Also, because we are aware of so much on so many different levels...there is so much depth there, it is a greater chance for unwellness. It's important that scorpios stay grounded in reality and stay intune with thier own integrity. consistantly taking time to center ones self. For scoprios, and all water signs, things like yoga, meditation and other energy work is essential for wellness and balance. So if you know one who gets knocked off thier grounding easily suggest something they can do to center themselves.
