And although we have that in common, we still have unique differences. Here's mine:

My Mars in Scorpio is the Apex, and one of the 3 legs, of my T-Square. For those who don't know, a T-Square is like an uneven 3-legged table. The Apex is the "middle" leg, and across from that is the Empty Space, or the missing 4th leg. The other 2 legs are in exact Opposition to each other on the Wheel, which creates even more tension.

My Empty Space occupies my 12th House, and it happens to be in Aries with no other Planets. As the energies of the 3 legs build up over time, due to having to make up for the missing 4th leg, it releases a unique amalgamation of T-Square energy back towards that Empty 12th House.

It's like the table finally breaks and falls towards the Empty Space, and it being in the 12th House, which rules Neptune, Pisces and all that is hidden & mysterious, it's much like being completely blindfolded and being impulsively pushed into a dark abyss.

If that doesn't force you to brush up on Spirit, nothing will.

Unfortunately neither my rationality nor my feelings are ever able to override that Mars in Scorpio adventure, which always requires outright intuition above all else. That's because the other two legs are exactly Opposite on the Wheel, and they are in Cancer & Capricorn. They're at constant odds, like two parents fighting. In a way they eliminate each other, and it's a quick lesson on the difference between Intuition, Rationality & Feelings.

My Libra Sun/Cancer Moon makes for temptation to take a break from all that tension. But my Virgo Venus helps reign it back, & actualy goes quite well with a Stellium in the 6th, since that House is the natural Ruler of Virgo.

You might think, well Venus is not a very serious Planet, it can't play a significant role for such an intense scenario. That might be true, except that my Sun is in Libra, which is ruled by Venus. Libra just adds to the philosophical theme apparent.

The 6th House is where you're forced to get things in order and has to do with Practicality, Service, Purity & Healing. It's easier to be celibate for extremely long periods of time with my Venus in Virgo, plus laser focus from my Stellium in the 6th, and sure enough, I often practice celibacy strictly for spiritual reasons.

If you're interested, study some of the Middle-Eastern, or Zen philosophies as it pertains to sexual energy being creative energy, when directed towards another activity, it's enhanced that much more.

If I fail to learn needed lessons during the building tensions or after the crash into the abyss, all I can say is, the 12th House is murky indeed. There's no time to say, wait! It's down you go.

Having Venus Sextile Neptune (Ruled by the 12th), and Venus Conjunct Pluto (which Rules Scorpio) is also my saving grace. But it all ends there.

What are your unique challenges with your Scorpio Stellium in the 6th House?

I am very much into Zen buddhism and mindfulness as well. In fact, I just chanted in Koren (I'm Korean). I do it mainly to calm my anxiety. My anxiety has been pretty bad latey and chanting helps. Also meditating a little, even if it means taking deep breaths and saying "OM."

As for sex, it's important to me, but I guess time's proven that I can be celibate for a while. The last time I an encounter was the beginning of last December. So it's been a while...for some reason I don't mind this time. I've come to the realization that in order to be fully satisfied, I need a committed relationship and the emotional connection/trust to like the sex. Otherwise it's really nothing to me and only helps the other party. And the reality is, I'm no toy.
I think what draws us Scorpio in 6th house people is that with the energy of Scorpio and Virgo pairing, we love introspection more than the average Scorpio and looking deeper into things. It makes sense.
I may have been half asleep when I wrote this, I have a stellium in the 6th, but my 6th house cusp sign is Scorpio. Just to clarify.

Edit:

Ruler of the 8th house in the 6th house
The activities of the 8th house serve the agenda of the 6th house. Transformation, attitudes to life and death, other people’s resources, sex and the desire to dig deep serve the need to be healthy, be employed, have a routine and interact with animals. You deal with other people’s stuff as part of your everyday job. You work as tax accountants, estate planners, IRS workers, bookkeepers, trash collectors, at a recycling facility, “used” store or mortuary. Death is a part of the everyday working environment. Sexual activities are part of the everyday working environment. You engage in depth interactions with animals. Animal hospice care worker. You bring your concerns about sexuality to health, diet and fitness. You work with AIDS patients. You use or make Viagra. You create herbal supplements for sexual enhancement. Sexual activities influence your health. You use your capacity for research and investigation in health and fitness fields. You experience peak emotions around animals. You have complex emotions surrounding health and diet. Work is emotionally turbulent. Sharing resources is an everyday habit. Sex is an everyday habit. You give your inheritance to the ASPCA.

What comes to mind is shared resources....using those resources to serve society....

I can go a while with out sex with another person. I'm 22 and my #(if you know what I mean) is at 2. A lot of people around my age have have way more experiences than I have with other people.
The first guy I had "relations" with, after I was done with him for good. I went a year and a half with out intercourse.
But during that time I learned how to use "toys". So I would not call myself totally celibate? Or at least compared to a nun I'm not.
I am just the kind of person that needs that release. And if I go too long with out it, I'm not okay. I'm all tense paranoid and feel vulnerable.
And recently I found out that I can(or for the time being) have casual intercourse. No romance feelings involved. The key is respect though...now that is very hard to find. I enjoy "that time" with him, but I'm forcing it to be something it's not either.

There is no doubt, I've been studying & observing for 35 years. It would blow your mind the things that are just way beyond "coincidence". Beyond statistical proof. I'm always amazed how it uncovers something that I could've never put into words about someone.

I used to make a point to NOT ask for astro info for as long as possible, but now I accept the info sooner because it definately always saves me a big hassle. I'm trusting & honest by nature.

When you do chanting to help with anxiety, do you feel like it calms you down only for for a little while? Do you feel like the reason for your anxiety is always out of reach?

Do you think the Scorp/Virgo/6th House combination makes one ritualistic about certain things? I do. Like, keeping almost a mental note of "statistics".

You mention death, and the french call the orgasm la petite mort, meaning "the little death". Whoever created us really wired us to crave sex in the most profound way possible. But it's rarely pure, or at least, rarely stays pure for a long time.

It's like we can't help but combine sex with our personal issues, and I just wonder if it's easier to have a handle on our fear of dying when we are celibate, rather than vaporize that energy thru someone else.

I have found myself serving/helping other people in dark/deep/critical situations. I had to talk my one friend out of suicide. I stayed with and helped a sick friend out at his home until he died (he had no one else). I also just recently joined a group that has me play music for dying patients at their bedside. They also have me accompany dying patients who have nobody, so they don't die alone.

I don't know if this is the extent of my 6th house stellium, or if it is tied into my soul purpose in anyway (vertex). But, that's the connection I'm seeing as of now. I've also been gravely ill and close to death myself.
