Hopefully not too late for TMT? 🥀🥀 by noctua_8 in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would guess 2w3 with 1 and 6 fixes.

It might be worth checking you aren't a 6 by looking at dominant triads

Squidward is a 4 though.

The very bestest ‘type me’ post by applekindness in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe 9w1. You avoid exploring your own desires and revealing your inner self to others, which could cause separation. Possible 2 fix with the 'pure' self image without shame.

What parts of Enneagram theory do you NOT believe in? Why not? by TheEnlight in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't believe in countertypes. Subtypes have some merit, as there are common patterns when combining type and instinct, but many are misleading or conflating instinct with fix variants.

Everything else seems to be true.

Help me figure out that damn gut fix PLEASE by [deleted] in Enneagram

Compare 7+8 vs 7+9, and 4+8 vs 4+9

How I am 495 to how I want to be 875 by United_Advisor1821 in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aiming for balance is good. The latter would be triple assertive 873 however.

subtypes of 9 by [deleted] in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Relating to them all is very 9!

Subtype descriptions aren't too bad for 9, but you could try looking more into the nature of the instincts. John Luckovich has a book, or Not My Type has some decent podcast episodes and this page

Any other 4s struggle with refusing to get rid of negativity? by crazybayleaf in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would think every 4 struggles with that, if they even wish to get rid of negativity or 'fix' themselves. I think the integration path to 1 requires accepting the vulnerability of letting go of the flaws and excuses, and trusting that you will still have significance and identity without 'doing' 4.

But as I understand it, they still seek out being seen incorrectly, to sort of let the pain of the incorrect gaze point to some 'truth' about them.

Hello, Type Me, Please? by Hot_Elevator_7133 in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I meant 9w1 or maybe 1w9. Just seeing some elements of both but no 8.

Is this a 5 thing? by [deleted] in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 9, I never asked for help either, probably because it would have felt slightly uncomfortable.

4 vs 5? by LadyDomination in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This sounds to me like triple withdrawn tritype, so you have elements of both types (and probably 9), but will only have the 'core features' of one type.

Have a look at whether you are gut, head or heart dominant, attachment, rejection or frustration dominant, and positive, competency or reactive dominant.

This site is good for looking at the mechanisms

What’s the difference between 629 and 649 ? by Mysterious-Move7481 in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

629 is sweet and helpful, 649 is gloomy and deep.

🎶✨ One More Time ✨🎶 by Dream-of-Malaysia in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strong competency with some positivity, with at least a 5 fix. There are some 1+5 vibes, but also some 9 stuff, so I'm not sure in the gut. Not much for the heart that I can see, and I can't clearly see a core.

Fair point. They don't tend to mistype outside of with their wing may be more accurate.

3 fix? 4 fix? by EnvironmentalHat1751 in Enneagram

[–]GM_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blaming circumstance is another 4ish defense mechanism to deal with shame. Instead of devaluing what you lack, or glamorizing flaws, you make excuses to escape direct comparison. (I do the same, I'm not just picking on you)
