Your enneagram type

[acronach]

1 thing i love about the internet, there's a ton of 5s online even though IRL there can be less than 10 of us in a group of 1200 XD

I just want to say I've finally figured out my type (9w1 sp/so), after all this time. My enneagram type as well as my instinctual variant are pretty obvious to me now, though it makes sense why I wasn't able to type myself before. I didn't have enough life experience to really type myself accurately (especially when it came to the instinctual variant), so I ended up just guessing how I would react in various situations rather than actually knowing for certain.

Paid test said 9w1 sp/sx. I'm now positive that this is correct. I see bits and pieces of me in other types but 9 pretty much hits on everything that's wrong with me.

Didn't your mom say you were a 5? You should always listen to your mother.

You trying to make me start doubting again?

Nah, pretty sure I'm not a 5. My mom wants me to be a 5, as I did a while ago. By the way, weren't you the one saying I was a 9? :P

Haha 964 sounds good. That's the triple doubting type: the seeker.

But what happened to your own reasons for thinking you're a 5?

My main reason for ruling out 5 was that I don't really seem like a head type. I don't believe I have as much "mental chatter" as other people who are head types, and I'm generally disengaged from my environment. Anyways....I'm also seeing a lot more 9 in me, and it all makes sense now. My issue is falling into comfortable habits and becoming disengaged and neglectful, ignoring personal growth. I didn't see myself this way before, though I've always been like this.

There is one 9 trait I pointed out before which you didn't mention: repression resistance.

But if you're a "gut" type, not a head type, how does this manifest? Repression of your gut instincts? How do neglectfulness and comfortable habits play into being a "gut" type?

Discovering one's enneagram type is so frustrating is one is an extrovert. Especially an extroverted perceiver.

Urghhhhhhhh!

type score type behavior motivation
8 15 I must be strong and in control to survive.
9 15 I must maintain peace/calm to survive.
1 10 I must be perfect and good to survive.
7 10 I must be fun and entertained to survive.
3 9 I must be impressive and attractive to survive.
4 9 I must be unique/different to survive.
5 9 I must be knowledgeable to survive.
6 8 I must be secure and safe to survive.
2 7 I must be helpful and caring to survive.

Your main type is Type 8
Your variant stacking is sx/so/sp
Your level of health is above average

Your main type is which ever behavior you utilize most and/or prefer. Your variant reflects your scoring profile on all nine types: so = social variant (compliant, friendly), sx = sexual variant (assertive, intense), sp = self preservation variant (withdrawn, security seeking).
