Alexa, Play “Under Pressure”—These Zodiac Signs Are The Most Stressed

I have a feeling my sign is one of them. …

This one’s for my perpetually-tired, always-exhausted babes of the zodiac—you know who you are! If this sounds like you, let’s chit-chat about the zodiac signs that are the most stressed. Spoiler alert, you’re not alone.

There’s nothing wrong with being busy. Life is hard—often, way harder than we give ourselves credit for. Some people have a really easy time being busy, and it’s in their nature to handle things efficiently. These people thrive off of chaos, are generally extroverted and know how to socialize without getting anxious or drained. They can even run on just a few hours of sleep, which in my opinion, is borderline witchcraft.

However, there are plenty of us (myself included) who just can’t function like that. When you’re swamped with the responsibilities of a hectic life (your boss wants those records updated stat, your S.O. needs to talk finances, and your mom won’t stop blowing up your phone) it’s essential that you take care of yourself and don’t succumb to that feeling of being overwhelmed.

And babe, I don’t just mean that you should do surface self-care practices like clay masks and bubble baths (though I loooooove those, too). When you’re truly stressed, you need to nourish yourself with good food, close company and deep sleep. Long breaks and breathing exercises are also top-notch.

When you’re working your ass off and don’t make time for self-care, you’re going to be S-T-R-E-S-S-E-D, and there are three zodiac signs in particular that tend to crash and burn under pressure. Can you guess who they are? These are the hard workers of the zodiac who often don’t leave time take care of themselves.

Read on for a look at which signs are the most stressed, as well as a few tips on how they can better take care of themselves. Life’s scary—be nice to yourself, okay? Mwah!

Virgo

Virgos are some of the hardest workers in the zodiac, whether they’re making minimum wage or running a Fortune 500. They know how to keep all their ducks in a row, and they relish in cleanliness and organization.

This perfectionism, unfortunately, is also what makes Virgo the most stressed sign in the zodiac. Because Virgos are so obsessed with keeping everything up to their super-high standards, they lose their shit when things go a little sideways.

On a bad day, you’ll probably find Virgo stress-cleaning their entire life. To help them chill, lend a hand with cleaning their apartment or taking their closet clean-out clothes to a donation center.

Capricorn

Capricorns are fierce—they’re intelligent, cunning and grounded, and they have a nearly-unmatched drive. Because of this seemingly-endless workhorse energy, Capricorns often overestimate how much work they can really take on. If you’ve ever seen a Capricorn struggling to hold themselves together, you’ll know that they can be especially prone to burnout.

Capricorns forget that they’re only human (oops!) and often end up hurting themselves because of it. If you’re witnessing a Capricorn loved one burn the candle at both ends, bring them some tea and offer them some comfort. You might not realize how badly they need it.

Libra

Libras are the peacekeepers of the zodiac—their mission in life is to promote justice and soothe conflict. Their energy is always needed, particularly when times get tough. Libras have a knack for helping feuding friends find middle ground and quelling disasters after breakups and family drama.

However, because Libras are so good at keeping the scales balanced, they’re really bad at making decisions, and just the idea is enough to stress them out. Tons of Libras are walking around with high levels of stress simply because they can’t choose what to wear, where to eat or whose text to respond to first.

This can make Libras come off as wishy-washy to others, which in turn makes them even more stressed! If you sense your favorite Libra is starting to spiral, invite them over for a movie night and help make small decisions for them (what flick to watch, what toppings for pizza, what drinks to mix, etc.).

Shawn Mendes opens up about his mental health in his recent documentary, he takes that honesty to a whole new level. From the time he was a teenager becoming famous, to dealing with the huge pressures of being a global star, Mendes has talked openly about how it affects his mental well-being. Through his personal stories, fans get an even closer look at his journey, which is filled with ups and downs as he searches for genuine happiness. In his 2020 Netflix documentary, *Shawn Mendes: In Wonder*, the singer of hits like “Stitches” shares a touching portrait of his life at the height of his career.

Despite all his success, he expresses a desire for simpler times. “I’m so grateful. I love these performances and I’ve never had more fun,” he shares. “But at the same time, I just want to spend time with my parents, watch movies, drive around, lie on a soccer field, and hang out with my friends. I miss that right now. It’s pretty intense.” Even when he was at the top, Mendes craved the little joys that many people take for granted. The pressure to keep performing, creating, and looking perfect weighed on him, and he continued to discuss this in the years following the documentary.

Flash forward to 2022, Mendes opened up again in a heartfelt social media post. At just 23 years old, with millions of fans and chart-topping songs, he shared that he was still battling feelings of self-doubt and anxiety. “Right now, I feel like a 23-year-old who’s either soaring high or sinking low,” he wrote. “Maybe that’s just what it’s like to be in your 20s, or maybe that’s just me.” His honesty struck a chord with fans who saw him as highly successful. Mendes admitted that despite his accomplishments, he often felt like he wasn’t doing enough. “The truth is, even with so much success, I still feel like I’m failing. I focus too much on what I don’t have and forget to appreciate what I do. I feel overwhelmed.”

Mendes’ willingness to talk about his mental health emphasizes that being famous doesn’t protect anyone from the stress of both personal and public expectations. His experience is not only a reflection of his own struggles but also offers hope to many fans who might feel the same way. In an industry that often emphasizes perfection, Mendes is changing the conversation by embracing being real and true to himself. What makes his story so inspiring is that it’s not just about his challenges but also his growth.

Though Shawn Mendes is a global superstar, at the end of the day, he’s just a young man trying to figure things out, just like everyone else. In his honesty, he’s discovered a connection with people.
