Just curious, but is it common for scorpios to undergo extremes, referring to mood changes.  And how should a scorpio deal with schizophrenia?  I am a scorpio, so I know the extremes that we go to inside our minds,  but how common is it for the scorpio to feel threatened by his surroundings, and feel the pain of others from miles away?

As a scorpio you will have wild mood swing. If you watch the lunar cycles you will be able to adjust better to the direction of the swing and there by better be able to control yourself.

Also scorpio are the predators of the zodiacs. Feeling threaten by your surrounding's is a defense safeguard, keep you on your toes and alert for danger.

That is not pain you feel, that is weakens. As a predator seek out weakens in  order to attack. However you do have the option to help. The choice is your.

Of all the zodiac, scorpios rise above all in healing. That also extend to healing others in none conventional ways.  

Just because you are a predator does not mean you have to attack, however you can with deadly result. It is a whole lot easier to heal and retreat quietly!  

I agree with antiquis,my whole life I've been very prone to lash out but now that I'm older Ive learned 2 only lash out when the times right.So just hold on to ur emotions

I'm a scorpio, but I find that it works just the opposite with me.  I have tremendous control over my emotions and actions and I think it comes from the mere strenght of the sign.  I've found it to be a very powerful thing too.

People are so accustomed to being yelled at and chewed out and argued with they don't know how to deal with someone who is truly in command of themselves and their faculties and they back down quickly and you'd be amazed how often you get your way.

I'll give you a good example.  At work one time a new person went off on me in a meeting in front of a lot of people including our three partners who own the business.  These 3 people know me very well and they know I don't play that game.  I just quietly and calmly told the newby that it doesn't matter who you are, from bottom to top, in this organization you do not go off on me.  I will discuss anything you want to as long as it's in a calm, rational, cilvilized, adult and professional matter but until then the "discussio" is over.  When you are in as much control of yourself as I am of myself we can pick up where we left off but until then you don't speak to me at all.  Not only did it unplug her, but my managing partner was sitting there with a little grin on his face and she never stepped out line with me again.

BTW, yes, I've been accused more than once of being a Vulcan for all you Star Trek fans.

I agree on the control of the emotions too.  I was never the lash out type unless continuously provoked.  I am the type that holds it in and gives the calm demeanor....and it drives my Cancer husband wild...because he knows me well enough that something is wrong...yet he can't get it out of me and I appear normal on the outside to anyone else.  Only those closest to me know the real ticking going on behind the scene in my mind as a silent revenge.  Plotting a silent assault for later...such as deleting a favorite tv show off tivo before they can watch it, hiding favorite cereal.  Childish things like that...but it hits my sense of eye for an eye....you did something to bother me...and I gritted my teeth...and I will do something to annoy you.
