How To Know When Each Zodiac Is Seriously Going Through It

Sometimes it’s hard to hide your stress, frustration, anxiety, and sadness, especially when things get tough. Some people are better than others at pretending everything’s okay. This is how you can tell when each zodiac sign is really going through it:

Aries

When they’re going through it, you’ll just know. They’re hotheaded and will outwardly show if they’re upset, stressed, sad, or angry about something. They’ll face those problems head-on, too.

Taurus

They stubbornly won’t express their feelings. It’s only when they’re mad that they’ll be passive-aggressive and maybe even mean. Sad, depressed, lost, confused — they bottle those feelings up and isolate.

Gemini

They won’t open up about how they’re feeling. They like to talk, but when they’re going through something, they tend to “deal with it” in their heads. They might even use humor to cope!

Cancer

They’ll retreat back into their shell — they internalize their sadness and anger and also hide away to be alone. They tend to be moody, too. When they’re going through it, you’ll know.

Leo

When they’re going through it, you will probably know because they’ll tell you. They’re not afraid to speak up about how they’re feeling. However, they’re still very insecure about how people will perceive them when they do open up.

Virgo

They’re quiet. They’re thinking things through, analyzing their situation, and considering their options. They internalize their pain because they’re so uncomfortable talking to someone about it.

Libra

They aren’t their normal peacemaker self. They’re moody and passive-aggressive. They won’t talk about their problems not only because they feel hopeless, but because they’re a silent sufferer.

Scorpio

They can be quite hostile and intense. Their mood swings grow vicious and they will either suppress their feelings or lash out at people. They just don’t know what to do with themselves.

Sagittarius

They get tense. Their warm, outgoing personality is at a standstill because they’re feeling so many negative emotions. They might even do something to distract themselves and help them relax.

Capricorn

They will absolutely not make it obvious they’re going through something. They don’t want to ever talk about their feelings — they’ll just be slightly passive-aggressive and maybe have an occasional outburst, but most of the time they suppress and isolate.

Aquarius

They keep themselves busy and distracted from their emotions or whatever they’re going through. They’re detached creatures and might even go off the grid to avoid talking about or dealing with their problems.

Pisces

You’ll know when they’re going through it because they’ll tell you. They’re emotional and don’t like bottling things up. They want to deal with things head-on simply because they don’t want to feel the weight of it anymore.
