Zodiac: They Say We're Insane (on hold)

Chapter 9 Are We Okay?

Capricorn's pov

  "What's going on?" I asked running over to the others as fast as I could "Did something bad happen?"
  "It's Aries.." Taurus said "According to the doctors she was having drug withdrawals from benzodiazepine. The doctors had her taking pills for it but she's been vomiting them out after they left the room. She had a seizure."
"You're her roommate!" Leo yelled "Shouldn't you of stopped her from puking her meds out?"
"I didn't notice till today!" Taurus yelled "I found her on the floor shaking with vomit in the toilet. I'm sorry jeez!"
  "Let's not blame each other okay." Cancer spoke "So we know why Aries is here now."
  "Look what happened to her." Aquarius muttered "Some help this place is.."
  "How many of us are on pills?" Leo asked "I'm on them anyone else?"
Everyone but Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, and Aquarius rose their hand. I wonder what everything was for.
"Maybe it's time we told each other our issues.." Libra said "It will help make sure none of us get hurt like Aries."
"She has a point." I said "I'll go first.. As most of you can till mines over eating and being over weight. I'm on diet pills and on a low carb diet."
"I still don't get the issue." Virgo spoke "You're not fat." I winced at the word "Sorry, bad choice of words. The point is you're not over weight like some people. You maybe a little chubby but not enough to say over weight it proves you're not just eating salads or nothing."
  I saw Libra and Taurus both freeze and look at the ground. Some of the others noticed it to. Sagittarius cleared his throat.
  "I'm here because of my anxiety." He said "They have me on medication to help me."
  "Alcohol abuse." Leo said as he leaned against the wall "I'm on meds too so I don't have a withdrawal attack. Something like Aries's"
  "Depression.." Pisces muttered "On medication."
  "Bulimia." Libra said "That's why a guard is always with me when I go to the bathroom. To make sure I don't throw up."
"Anorexia.." Taurus spoke "That's why I can't leave to dinning table till all my food is gone."
"Insomnia." Virgo said "I'm on medication for it. Sorry Libra and Taurus if I said something wrong earlier."
"Self harm." Cancer spoke not meeting my eyes "I burn myself. Not allowed by the fire place."
"Self harm too.." Aquarius muttered crossing her arms "Cutting. Why you never see me with a knife when we are eating and why my nails are short."
  "Multiple personality disorder." Gemini said "On medication to keep me stable. So I'm not changing moods drastically."
  "Suicidal thoughts and attempts." Scorpio spoke leaning against the wall "Why I'm basically not allowed anything I can hurt myself with. Hell I don't even have bedsheets."
  "I guess we are all messed up." Leo chuckled dryly "Well enough of all this sad shit. Let's go see if they got Aries stable."
  We all nodded in agreement before walking down the hall. We may all be messed up but I hope telling each other why we're here will help us soon.
