Enneagram Type 4
More info on my particular personality classification...not that you care.Most of this info was taken directly from authenticenneagram.com ....bit of a lame site but it had good descriptions. Yay..now you can see into the depths of my soul and make me even more paranoid then I already am!
Lost Essential Quality: An experience of the ORIGINAL DEEP AND COMPLETE CONNECTION to everything.
Compensating Belief: A painful loss of original connection leaves a terrible feeling of deficiency and a sense that something vitally important is missing which must be regained.
Attention/Coping Strategy: Searching for the ideal love or circumstances that will make you feel loved, whole, and complete again. Putting attention onto intense feelings concerning that which is judged important and missing.
Trap: Trying to obtain the special, ultimate love or situation that will make you complete.
Driving Energy: ENVY AND LONGING, fueling the search for whatever seems necessary to make life fulfilling.
Avoidance: Being ordinary, deficient, lacking.
Strengths: Creative disposition, passion, empathy, emotional depth.
Paradox: Wanting what is missing perpetuates dissatisfaction with what already is present.
