Ever since the summer of 2012, i've felt so strange and I cant put my finger on it. Anxious, nervous, frustrated, cautious, nor happy nor sad. Empty. Its the worst period I think ive ever gone through despite things happening which should have made me happy..purely because I dont feel alive. I cant remember the last time I felt butterflies in my stomach or over joyed with excitement...I turned 19 November 18th and I miss the feelings I always used to feel. So optimistic, always being able to know that 'everything is going to be okay' Recently I dont know whether it is or not and I dont like not knowing where my future will lead.
I guess it started when I didnt get the grades I needed for university..and although they werent bad they werent good enough and I could have still got in somewhere, but it sunk in that I wasnt passionate about doing any of the courses. I cant put my heart into something I dont want 100% and it's it left me thinking, what the hell do I want then? I guess I want too much. I guess im too ambitious that I dont know where to start, I feel like ive lost myself and everything I once wanted.
In addition, this guy ive liked since the moment I met him in 2009, a summer romance I guess..we finally got close in 2012 and both of us had expectations - but it all happened so fast that it was a let down for the both of us. Seeing each other year after year waiting for the moment, when he always caught me unexpected and turned up one night explaining his feelings - something which was very rare for him to do, we kissed hidden at an italian festa and after two nights of intense passion it went downhill because neither of us knew where to begin and how to start something which would easily be over for another year because of the distance (However this story is far too long to explain)

None of this probably makes any sense but I just needed to let it out.. Are any other Scorpios having difficulty putting their finger on the way their feeling recently? I almost feel depressed at times and I dont know why, Im fed up of faking a smile yet dont see real reason not to smile. Im healthy, I have so many great family and friends and i know when i know what I want I can get it..but I guess not knowing right now has REALLY got to me and I cant handle the pressure anymore.

Even though i am very optimistic about my future, i struggle with this as well. i want to know everything NOW. i want things to happen NOW. i want this that and the other in my life NOW but i have learned thats not how life works and timing is everything.

i think it is your age. you are still very young and i think especially the early 20's are a difficult period, especially for females. Looking back to my early 20's i was probably sad, depressed, anxious, un-confident most of the time. through experiences you learn that everything will be ok, because life does get better. i say this now that i look back to those years because i am liking the person i am becoming and those times are behind me. its always easier to look back and see how life get better than to know that it will get better from the place you are at. but it does.

i think saturn is actually working in our favor. i have embraced this whole saturn in scorp thing because i am actually feeling a lot more optimistic since november. i still have anxiety, but i also feel like i am letting go of a lot of "clutter" be it emotionally, mentally, and physically (people, things).

just keep your head up, stay positive, and know that everything does happen for a reason, and everything will be ok. 🙂

Scorpchi,
What you are experiencing, is, basically, "fear of the unknown".
You are at that age where you "may" have moved out or you know
you won't be living at home, much longer and you don't have a
life-plan that offers you the security that you have once known.
Fear can be a debilitating experience that can immobilize you.
When that happens, you cannot make the decisions you need to make.

Here are some words of wisdom:
1) If there is nothing that you can do about it, don't worry about it.
2) Don't be anxious for tomorrow, for... tomorrow will take care of itself.
3) Don't try to live your whole life in one day.
4) Adhere to the "K.I.S.S. Principle" - KISS = "Keep It Simple, Stupid"
The more you make life complex, the harder life becomes to deal with.
5) When debating a choice, within yourself, consider the consequences
of the choice being presented to. Contemplate whether you can afford the
potential consequence as much as the desire. That is to say, trust your
BETTER judgement. Do this and you can stay out of trouble much easier and
keep them to a minimum.
6) As for careers, think on the things you like to do, the things you don't like
and the things you are good at and those things which you're not so good at doing.
A career is like school - while some may have enjoyed their school years, others
did not. But... one lesson school teaches, is that of when you do well, you pass.
The same rules apply to any employment. Work hard, stay focused and do what your
employers demand of you and you will be able to hold your job. You will also
be able to write a positive resume - leave your work at work and your home at home.
Do the best you can in all things. Push yourself, but never condemn yourself beyond
that of positive constructive criticism.
7) Treat others the way you would want to be treated.

Again, One day at a time, don't be in too big a hurry. Enjoy today, every day,
and make the best of each day as you can. For the benefit of others and yourself.

I knew you guys could help!! If i speak to any of my friends about this weird feeling they just dont understand..its so hard to explain.. I feel like somethings missing but i dont know what it is..nothing satisfies me anymore!! I hope and pray that 2013 is a good year. Its so important to me to always feel content or at least something! "Its better to feel pain, than nothing at all". @IntriguedScorp.. you heard us both Saturn. Lifes too short to be feeling nothing and to be longing for something, I want it and I want it NOW haha... Thanks to everyone who replied your all sweethearts and I hope 2013 is a great year for all you guys 🙂
