I must be bat shit. I have most of the markers. My husband nicknamed me coocoo for cocoa puffs. His favorite thing to call me.
Eta: 3rd/9th opposition. Merc sq. Ur/jup. Merc sesquare Pluto. Moon/Sun sq. Neptune. Saturn conj IC
My Virgo Moon makes only positive aspects, and none to Uranus or Mercury, though it is conjunct the asteroid Odysseus, the wanderer...
My Mercury's only aspects are squares to Mars in 12th and Jupiter on cusp of 6th, which oppose each other.
My Uranus's only aspects are squares to Sun in 3rd and Neptune in 9th, which oppose each other.
I'm as crazy as a bedbug!
I'd also add Scorpio placements. Pluto is about obsession...so moon in Scorpio with Uranus and Jupiter. ..obsessive anxiety. I also think mental problems have more to do with uncontrollable mood swings. ..which in turn control the thinking process.

planets in 0-3 and 28-29 degrees
i forgot about this...
also, what about elements? didn't someone talk about once one of the markers of sociopaths and the like was a dominant amount of air in a chart?

I have some of these aspects that everyone is mentioning...but I don't think I am mentally ill (although I guarantee I have family members who would disagree).
...@PIseas Id on't think you or myself are crazy at all...you're a Pisces Sun, so a lot of those energies I think work better with you, more so than most. And I don't read anything nefarious in those aspects you mentioned, just juxtapositions of...your conscious and subconscious mind?

tension/anxiety, push pull, competing, duplicitous nature i think of tight conjunctions jupiter/saturn, planets in 0-3 and 28-29 degrees, anger lacking expression turned inward 12 house mars, yods, t squares, too much neptune....
My biological father was diagnosed in his very early 20's with paranoid schizophrenia. Unfortunately, it was resistant to treatment and he never had relief from it prior to his death. He was not a part of my life.
I don't have his birth time but if one looks at his chart there is a mercury without major aspects.
Sun is at 29.44 Aries and opposes Moon (2.48 Scorpio) both form a t-square with Pluto (4.55 Leo) as apex.
Additionally, he has the following planets at 0-3 degrees: Mars (Pisces), Uranus (Gemini).
Neptune is at 29.55 Virgo.
Another case:
An extended family member (not directly related to me) was diagnosed with Bi-Polar and has remained untreated.
Mercury in Aries with no major aspects.
Jupiter (29.51 Gemini) squares Venus (29.34 Pisces).
Moon receives hard aspects from 6 planets including very tight opposition to sun.
Another case:
Extended family member (not blood relation) diagnosed with severe personality disorder. (She is daughter of the family member immediately above).
Mercury at 29.27 Virgo (10th house). Mercury is apex of 3 t-squares.
Mercury receives no trines or sextiles for release of pressure. Mercury in wide conjunct with venus.
Venus is apex of 3 t-squares. Venus doesn't receive any soft aspect for release of pressure either.
Conversely---
I have Mercury at 29.13 Sagittarius. Uranus is at 0.28 Virgo.
I have no mental illness and no history of mental illness.
However, my mercury has an outlet for expression. It is conjunct ascendant within seconds. My ascendant is at 29.40 Sag. It also conjuncts my Sun, Mars, and trines Uranus. It is sextile chiron.
I have no t-squares. In fact, I only have 3 squares in my natal chart. I have no oppositions.
I do have Neptune in the 10th but closer to the 11th house.
I think you may be on to something Tweek.
