Posted by seraphHow lovely to see you around these parts, seraph.Posted by PhoenixRising😉 cheers, PR.Posted by DamnataPosted by PhoenixRisingI was just going to say that I remember us going back and forth on topics and managing a nice debate and I have a shiton cardinal energy in my chart lol.
Oddly dxp folks (with the exception of Crabs) tend to be more chill than the folks I have to deal with irl.
Your Virgo Sun will always trump your Ram moon and Crab venus (apparently since you don't irk me). Just like I adore Elle, Elly and Seraph despite their annoying cardinal bits.

When I have bad ptsd days like today where episodes keep hitting me in waves over and over I think about what it’d be like if I ever did commit to a relationship and how eventually I won’t be able to hide it anymore. Then I feel overwhelmed and that the idea of a relationship is wholely impossible and detrimental to my ability to be stable. 😐
On the plus side, the roommate thinks that I’ve just had to run many ‘small errands’ today periodically. Yep. Totally not so I can sit in my car and freak till an attack passes, fix my makeup and go home.
Today sucks. *kicks rocks*


Posted by EllygantPosted by PhoenixRisingYeah. I’ve had an attack before around someone I was dating. It did not go well. Anytime I’ve confided in someone about it, the result has been bad for me 100% of the time.Posted by Ellygant

Hide what? The attacks?
And to be honest the entirety of it. The trust issues, irrational fear and the belief I have that I need to isolate myself in order to protect the other person from me. I mean I never even told the ex Scorp about it at all until after we broke up the final time.
Roommate knows about it and that I time to time have attacks. My skin still crawls at the idea of her witnessing them though.
Only the cap Best has ever been present for one and it be ok. Even my longest best friend the Pisces saw one and freaked out on me. Which is why we stopped being friends for a few years.
Any sort of intimacy is still hard for me to maintain whenever it comes up.click to expand

So there is this neighborhood cat where I live. I’ve lived here for three years now and I’m still not quite sure who the cat belongs to. I know it belongs to someone because he/she looks very well taken care of...well fed etc. Very pretty fluffy cat. This morning my package I was expecting had arrived....was sitting on my front porch. I go out there to grab it and the cat practically comes pouncing at me outta nowhere. You woulda thought I was taking his/her package or something. The other day the cat tries to get in my car when I was leaving. This cat is very friendly or so you think. It will come up to you all purring and rubbing on your leg....basically begging for you to pet it. So you pet it and everything is good for the first ten seconds or so and then hen BAM!!! The cat starts hissing and swats at you with its paw. I’ve been hit in the face and bitten on the hand before by this cat. Now I’m a big cat person....I’ve had cats over the years, but this cat scares the shit outta me! It’s moody as hell! I’m convinced it’s a Cancer.
I even call the cat Cujo because it reminds me of that damn dog on the movie.

Broke things off with the Pisces eek.
I think there's potential to still be good friends, but I was thinking in terms of the future(amongst a few other things) and it wasn't for me anymore. I don't think he's processed it properly yet though ouch!

Posted by EllygantOne thing I have learned to accept is, this struggle will not end. So I might as well accept it for what it is, and learn to cope with it. To see it as a scar of life, though not a physical one, but a mental and emotional one.

Posted by EllygantAs usual PR, has great words of advice.Posted by PhoenixRising🙂 thank you.
🤗
I guess I was curious because when you wrote "I think about what it’d be like if I ever did commit to a relationship and how eventually I won’t be able to hide it anymore." I was thinking well wouldn't it be a given that this would be a person you would share this with. I mean....if it's someone you've chosen to be a part of your life, you made this choice because the person has demonstrated they can be trusted with all parts of you. Someone to be vulnerable with, otherwise...you're just "dating". However, I wasn't aware how much you guard this part of yourself (e.g. ex Scorp not being aware). I'm also not aware of the reasons you choose to commit to someone. I personally have not always chosen my partners/ex lover as much as they chose me and I simply went along for the ride. This would speak to why I haven't allowed myself to be fully known to any of these men. Everyone knowing just a little bit different piece of my history, none of them know the same thing.
It's funny how much Scorps allow an incident/response influence their future behaviour. I'm not referring to your trauma as I would never try to reduce this to a simple "incident". I mean your ex Fish friend's reaction. I'm sure you were already very self conscious of how your attacks impact you and she just reinforced whatever negative thoughts you have attached to that. Try to push past that fear that people can't handle it. Sure some won't be able to, but that's not a reflection of you.
The fish and I are great friends again. But only because she came back and apologized. She experienced someone else close to her going through a similar trauma and she faced it in a completely different way. She understood in a way she couldn’t before. She actually missed the first few years of my relationship with the Scorp because that was when we weren’t talking.
And I loved the shit outta the Scorp. But I stuck to that relationship in large part for stability. I came close to bringing it up countless times. But he always saw me as so whole and perfect and I felt so secure for the first in my life, bringing that out felt like I’d jeapordize that. Plus I was still on medication for the first year we were together and once I felt in a good place to be off it finally I thought talking would set me back. All the trauma unfolded after the break up though and I totally fell hard into a relapse or regression, whatever you’d call it.
‘Try to push past that fear that people can't handle it. Sure some won't be able to, but that's not a reflection of you. ‘
And again. Thank you. I know this too. Mainly the cap has taught me. I’ve said time and again similar to the first post that I can’t fathom how I can have a relationship. Though admittedly with way way waaaaaay more mellowdrama and depression lol. She always tells me the same thing though. I don’t think i ever started to believe her until she was there multiple times to handle something so intense and difficult.
The crab also helped too. He knew. Never saw me have an episode, but I’d stop by after a bad therapy session or fresh off an attack and he’d always nurture me, I’d never had that before from a man. Never turned me away, would just walk me inside and put me to bed next to his dog when I was too freaked to talk. He sister who he is very close with is a counselor for childhood trauma as well so I always wondered if that played into it. I suppose I will never know. Though sometimes it’s as harmful as it is helpful, to experience someone being there then gone almost makes it worse some days when I really overthink.
Now saying it moreso comes from a place of being logical and feeling somewhat stable on my own. Relationships almost feel like a threat to the progress I’ve worked so hard to acquire.
A third time, thank you. 🤗click to expand

Posted by PhoenixRisingHah PR, I genuinely laughed a bit too hard when I read this. 😆
Scorp: *laying on couch*
He: *sits down lift up Scorp's legs and place them on lap...runs fingers on the bottom of feet*
Scorp: *lies* I'm not ticklish. You might as well stop.
He: You're not?
Scorp: Nope. *dying inside trying hard not to giggle*
He: Hmmm *quickly begins to tickle waist*
Scorp: No don't, not th----*farts* OMG I'm so sorry! *....mortified*
He: 😆 😆 😆
Scorp: I'm sorry...
He: 😆 It's okay. Things happen....
Scorp: *embarrassed, tries to watch tv*
*later that night goes to bed*
Scorp: *dreams of being chased down a corridor and every time the person chasing me grabs my arm I fart*........😐
I can't.

Posted by EllygantElly, I love this story. 😄
I semiforced the roomie to watch a Christmas movie with me.
Taurus Roomie(with expressive leo moon): I WANNA WATCH A CHRISTMAS MOVIE! Why do they all suck on Netflix?!
Elly: hmmm. I have hbo go. Maybe there are some good ones there. *checks and rattled off list*
Taurus: .... *silence*
Elly: Amazon prime might have some. You can rent movie for like four or five dollars.
Taurus: Seems like a rip off. *scrolls through amazon and pouts* Guess I’ll just watch Stranger Things. *sighs*
Elly: Huh.
I walk back to my room, rent my favorite, Miracle on 34th Street. Turn the volume all the way up. About five minutes in I hear something.
Taurus: hey. Elly. Hey. *yells through walls* HEY. WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING—
Elly: *smiles to self and pauses*
Taurus: ELLYY. WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING?
Elly: *walks into Taur’s room* Oh? My favorite. Miracle on 34th Street, it happens to be playing at Elly Cinemas, next room over from yours. Free of charge. I hear someone else was duped into paying the ripoff. *smiles* and there are cinnamon rolls too.
Taurus: *laughs* Well. Maybe. *pouts and goes back to playing Stranger Things*
Elly: *plays movie. Texts Roomie a picture of the screen* Caption: Christmas magic happening over here! 🎄
Taurus: *laughs loudly through walls*
Elly: *Pauses movie and waits a few minutes.*
Taurus: *appears in doorway with blanket, coffee mug and a pillow* So. I was disappointed and not feeling Christmas. And I heard your movie. And. I guess. I’ll watch it with you.
Elly: *smiles and rewinds to beginning*
Taurus: OH MY GOD I LOVE OLD MOVIES I LOVE THE OLD BLACK AND WHITE SEQUENCES!!!
It was a Christmas Miracle. 😄 😛

Posted by EllygantPosted by PhoenixRisingAlso love the new avi.
I was hoping to have you out of my system by now.....*sigh*
*off to make Christmas dinner* Maybe pounding some dough will help.
Roomie to me, literally this morning as she watched me put on thigh high socks to just wear around the house.

‘Once a Scorpio understands the power that deep, open connection brings them, you guys are so power oriented, you come to a place in your life where you pull power and dominance from your relationships. They’re not a source of weakness, they’re not a source of indecision. They become the source of your greatest strength.’
Urgh.

So I was just listening to my two Pisces coworkers conversation.....the younger Pisces and the older Pisces.
Young Pisces: I wouldn’t want to live to be a hundred....I don’t think I’d even want to live to be in my nineties.
Older Pisces: Not even if you’re healthy and spry? I wouldn’t mind living to a ripe old age as long as I felt good.
Young Pisces: Well I have a heart condition so I doubt I’ll even make it to forty.
Older Pisces: Well aren’t you miss morbid!? What’s wrong with your heart?
Young Pisces: I had to have heart surgery when I was sixteen. I take meds for it. (Then goes into detail regarding the issues with her heart.)
Older Pisces: See you’re all good then!
Young Pisces: Not really...
Older Pisces: Can you have children?
Young Pisces: Oh yeah I can have children....well at least I think I can have children...haha. I definitely want children!
Older Pisces: So you’re willing to have children even though you’re going to die young and leave them—
Young Pisces: Yeah....I already have their names picked out and everything. (Blurts out three names).
Older Pisces: So you are having three kids?
Young Pisces: Nope, four
Older Pisces: Well what’s the fourth ones name?
Young Pisces: I don’t know yet....I haven’t gotten that far. haha
Older Pisces: Yo Scorp! What’s wrong?....why are you being so quiet over there—
Me: Huh?...(takes me a second to realize I’m being spoken to as I glance over noticing both are staring at me)....oh...uh...nothing! I’m just enjoying the conversation... 😁
Sometimes I could listen to these two talk all day. Funny how different the personalities between them...one a negative nelly and the other always looking on the bright side. Lol

See this is why I love sharing in the asylum. A safe place to get multiple takes!
It’s funny you locked into the strength of connection. Upon first hearing it for me, I locked into my tendency to do the opposite lol. Even my closest friends for years still inquire why I sometimes shut them out or wait weeks/months to share something important in my life....

Posted by Ellygant
To be honest I’m just now noticing how deep andnpersustent of a bad habit it is. I almost always interpret close bonds as my weak point and that the more I invest in them, the less able I am to maintain both the relationship and my sense of strength. It’s so backwards though now that I’m writinng it out. It has just been such a deeply internalized ideal I never bothered to put it into words.



Posted by PhoenixRisingI too PR, am a compartmentalizer. Everyone has their purpose and 'box' in my life, at times it does not mean one person is more important than the other because of the information they know about me. Simply, because I know what certain people, and traits they have, that benefit particular aspects of who I am. Why would I bring up irrelevant details of myself to everyone, when I know one does not fit all. Unfortunately, in the past, people have mistaken this as secrecy but hardly. It merely means I am being efficient about using my energy and time. If I were to share all of myself on a consistent basis to everyone. It would be a drain on me, and a drain on them. To spare everyone that pain, I do what I do. It is a pity, they see it as us 'lying', when refraining certain parts of ourselves until the appropriate timing or individual to listen to, is consideration, no ?Posted by Ellygant

Hmmm, I don't know if I would say that exactly. I mean I have, but it isn't generalized to all of my relationships. Simply romantic ones. If you recall I am very much a compartmentalizer. I only seek and explore that type of connection with my lovers/partners. Similar to you, I don't share things with my friends and do the opposite of "locking in" as well. I mean just the other day I was complaining about my blog being down and my Fish friend asked "what blog?". I explained it was something I've been doing for 3 years now. I bought a new place and moved and didn't tell some of my friends for months and only because one offered to pick me up on the way to the restaurant when we planned to meet up lol. I tend to share info like I'm sharing what I had to eat that morning:
Friend: How was your week?
Scorp: Meh....It was long and being stuck in traffic today didn't help. It took me an hour and a half to get home.
Friend: Wow, why so long?
Scorp: Ah the 401 was congested because people want to gawk at an accident
Friend: Wait. What? Why are you taking the 401?
Scorp: Yeah, I bought a house in __________
Friend: What?! When?!
Scorp: A while ago. August.
Friend: It's November.
Scorp: Speaking of, so are we going away to the cottage before it gets too cold? *can feel friend's internal eye roll*

I meant locking into the strength part of the original statement from the video. But hadn’t had my coffee and was articulating with my wine hangover lol.
That so funny though about the house. 😆 I’m getting more and more like that the older I get. A while back the crab was like
‘you moved? you got a dog? You’re gettig another new job? 😕 why didn’t you mention it when I asked how you were?’
‘You didn’t ask why. You asked if I was good. I said yeah.’
‘😐’
The only friend that gets that seamlessly is the Cap/Gem. My closer cancer, Aqua and Pisces friends I can always tell are a little perturbed. The Pisces used to start full on days long fights about it years and year ago lol. The cap gets it though. Just the other day at her place we were talking about a part of her past she divulged only in snippets and references that she purposefully seems to have forgotten a lot of. She was talking about how lately she was starting to remember, asking for my take since she knows I can relate.
Cap: I really haven’t even told you the worst of it Elly. The most of it actually.
Elly: Yeah. I know.
Cap: oh do you?
Elly: yeah. I mean I gauge that what you’ve told me is a solid 7% . But I figured if it was worth mentioning to you, you’d say something.
Cap: *laughs* Really? 7% ? That low?
Elly: Am I wrong?
Cap: *laughs* not at all.
Believe it or not, it’s that aspect that’s made her one of the ones I’ll go to first when I finally am ready to talk. To me it means she has some concept of my mindset before the words even come out.

Posted by EllygantYes Elly, sometimes when I am struggling with something and I have yet to come to terms with my emotions. Then to have someone around me, realise my mood or mental / emotions state, for them to pick up on it, then to question it. Most of the time, I would tell them the truth, but only a snippet of it. Not because I am lying, but because I am not nearly ready to spill out the mountain load of thoughts or feelings that I am processing.

Hmph. I still feel this way most of the time.
click to expand

Posted by EllygantYou see in the past, I was a hypocrite because I would expect others to understand why I am this way but then to be irritated, angered, frustrated, or annoyed when others do the exact same thing. Until, I realise not to take it personally, that people need time, they deserve that, it is in their right. So then, once I took the 'personal' side of matters out of it. It was much easier, to take my focus elsewhere and to pursue more fruitful things than to mull and use up my poor brain cells, running them to the ground. Which actually, made me feel much better about myself, I felt more in control over my mental / emotional faculties. Hence practicing mental and emotional hygiene has been such important factors to me. However, on the reverse of this, people then complained that I became too detached and cold. As if, I did not care.Posted by TheLadyScorpioOmgsh it’s so funny you mention all this because in the same video I pulled the original quote from it talks about this.

Then others would interpret that as, my being dodgy or some other bloody issue like that. This trait of ours, seems to bring out a lot of insecurity in others. God knows, why. It does not mean I do not trust them, it does not mean I do not care about them, it is far less about them and more about me. If and when the time is right, I will share as we go, but until I have reached my conclusion, none of it will be escaping my lips. Even if you threaten me. Especially very earthy or watery individuals, they would quite literally fight with me over this. However, they have often have this strange need to possess or to feel secure. I never understood why they felt so riled up over it, my loyalty to them never wavered. I believe it is because they make it personal, when my intentions hardly were.
I still feel that way all the time. However I have started to realize there are big repercussions for those I love the most. So I’ve been working on at least saying ‘this has nothing to do with you. It’s me. It’s not personal against my trust in you. It’s me making sure I can trust myself.’
It’s interpreted as being personal against when they have no information to go off of. Which I have to remind myself all the time about lol. Because honestly when it’s reversed and i feel left in the dark, I’m the first to assume it’s always about me rather than something they’re working out something internally.click to expand

Posted by CAPSLOCK2018Posted by PhoenixRisingIts funny you ask because she's the only one that knows my birthday at work 🙂
I tease. Doing anything special with Ms. Scorpio for your birthday CAPSLOCK?
January 13
No plans yet because we just started opening up to each other. She has the whole week off and likes her space.
I miss her a lot. We're both really shy around each other. But still, at work she'll poke me or I'll invade her private space.

Posted by EllygantPosted by PhoenixRisingFixed signs approach to resolving things lol.
I'm pretty straightforward and fairly clear when I address an issue. So if I ask a question and someone "answers" but they're not really answering me offering the typical vague watery bullsh*t answer because you think you're smarter than me, I automatically go into...."okay, now I'm going into IDGAF mode".
And so now IDGAF and we will not be speaking again until you're ready to address the issue directly or f*ck off. Even if that means ending a 18+ friendship.
My anger is a curse sometimes, because once I see red. Well, I see red.click to expand

Posted by EllygantYeah, I had no choice when I first started my job. I literally only have 5 min between clients sometimes and I need a fresh mind for my sessions.
I also find it charming you do a sudoku to calm down lol. So mercurial of you.

I’m the same way. From the jump over an issue it’s clear where I stand. Unless the issue completely sideswipes me and I’m emotionally t-boned. Then I disappear for a few hours or days until I figure out wtf just happened. But that only normally happens when dealing with crab suns lol.

"I tried it on in the store and looked in the store mirror for about a half hour...people were looking at me!"

Posted by EllygantWhen people do that, regardless of sign. I would disappear off the face of this planet, and good luck to them ever finding me again until I reappear. Do not throw me a list of grievances, my mind cannot possibly cope with all that information with an appropriate and timely rational / emotional response in turn.Posted by PhoenixRisingSometimes when they’re afraid to confront you they save it up for a moment when they need space. They’re kinda like Libras, where they accommodate you without any hint they’re upset until months or years later then attack you with a laundry list of stored up grievances when they need space. Which I kinda understand cause I’m prone to the same sharing a moon. It still throws me though lol.Posted by Ellygant

Posted by EllygantPosted by MysteriousDreamerThat’s rough on the dinner staff! What was your grandmothers sign, if you don’t mind me asking? I too had a Scorpio grandfather. My mom comments all the time how alike we are and how it weirds her out lol.
I think perhaps we Scorpios are creatures of habit. I know once I get into a routine of doing something I don’t like for that schedule to be interrupted or changed.
For 15-20 years my Scorpy grandfather went to the same little diner for his breakfast every morning after his sag wife died. Same time every day....never a minute late. They all knew him by name...knew what he liked and didn’t like. Had his coffee hot and ready for him. Had his meal ready too as he’d order the same breakfast everyday. One cold January morning though they knew something was off because he had not arrived yet and his coffee was getting cold. One of the waitresses went outside to have a smoke and thought it was odd that his truck was there, but he was nowhere to be found. Then something caught her eye. There he was lying in the parking lot dead from a heart attack.
Not sure why this popped into my head. Maybe since it’s almost the anniversary of his death. He’s been dead for 17 years now this January. Funny how certain tidbits pop into our heads, but I do think we are creatures of habit. At least I am for sure!click to expand
