Through your video and insight i finally can understand and acknowledge his enormous and constant underlying fear. That's so great and helpful and valuable. It saved our friendship. Thank you Dr Lahue. Keep on your amazing work.

    What came to mind in the after-thought is that problem solving can be seen as bring a "know it all". I think Sixes are commonly misunderstood. With type 6 in perticular, I believe it's important to understand their childhood dynamics.
    If you check out some of Helen Palmers work I think you'll appreciate the time she taken to doc. her perspective of childhood experieneces of each type.
    Thank you for your time Tom.

    So, I have a very dear friend who is a 6... When a horrific accedent happened to my sister and brother-in 'law, and they needed a couple of days of help when they both finally got home from the hospital... They asked if I and my (6) friend could travel a couple of hrs to be there for them and lend a hand... My friend refused to join me, as she was afraid to be at someone's home she knew, but not closely... And also concerned over not being "ready" for a trip she was then planning on, 6 weeks from the 2 1/2 days we would have been there helping... I went myself... And it was an amazing time of serving and blessing. I'm learning the Enneagram... And chalked it up to her being an overly cautious and often anxious 6.... And even though it was sorly disappointing that she would not join me, at such a time...knowing her Enn. # was so helpful for me being a 4 with a 3 wing.
    She is struggling with this C.19 Virus now as well... Even though she is hunkered down in her home with all she needs... Such times must be tough for the beloved 6's among us!

    I’m a six and when something really makes me anxious I get stuck in a loop until I can ground myself and this might take days even weeks to get myself out of that cycle. I go through all the ways a situation could go wrong so I look for several solutions to potential scenarios. It’s awful but on the flip side I’m someone who lots of people feel secure with because I can be really reassuring since I learned how to reassure myself.

    I am a 6 and an atheist. As much as I appreciate this video I think it had to many religious analogies and to much conspiracy theories labels.
    But I can identify with all the other things being mentioned.
    Sadly I am one of those sixes that has been holding me back because of the fear of what might happen.

    • @AnjaKnockKnock
      @AnjaKnockKnock 2 роки тому

      Same here, rather agnostic but mostly cuz neither of the sides makes complete sense to me so i'll just stay in the middle. But I laugh at most conspiracy theories, I guess I trust the current system as an authority right now. Dont like that 6 is always connected to anti-authority as if it's the only way the questioning side of 6 can express itself. The conspiracy/anti authoritarian image of 6 is partly what kept me from relating to the type for a while.

    I'm a Six and this pandemic has been absolute hell for me. You'd think "Yay! My brain has so well trained me for disasters that I know just what to do!" But unfortunately I have gone over to the "dark side" is Six-ness, and 8:52 nailed it. I don't just order groceries and have them delivered to my doorstep, but I disinfect EVERYTHING with bleach water (except the produce, which gets a thorough wash before using), and I wear a mask to do it, and gloves. I worry that delivery people who don't wear masks might have COVID and have breathed in the space where our front door is and left enough droplets floating around that I or my husband might breathe them in when we go outside (for HOURS afterward), because I read somewhere that the smaller aerosolized droplets with COVID could stay in the air for a long time (never mind that the freaking wind is blowing and I'm sure there wouldn't be enough for a viral load). Going out anywhere (which is RARE for us), especially a doctor's office, means a boatload of safety rules, precautions and supplies. I DEFINITELY do not understand people who don't wear masks when they go out (and goodness, wear gloves, too!).
    I might be going insane -- But, thank God, I am NOT A CONSPIRACY THEORIST! We Sixes are not all that kind of crazy.

    I m a 6 and all that you say gives so much clarity. All this fears usualy i manifest them in my relationship wich is an 8. I always count on him because he looks so confident and he s there for me. In a situation i m always giving him the "vision" on what could go wrong. He doesn t like it and says he s tired of my negativity. But i also came to the point to overcome my fears and i m justy saying: i m going to risk and do this thing even if it s posible that the worst scenario that i see could become true. I think this is a good attitude for a six, to be courajouse and constantly to have to attitude to risk it all. And then they will descover that it s never the end of the world and they will get more optimistic.

      I'm a 6w7 and never believe conspiracy theories. I always approach any conspiracy with skepticism. You can't prove them, so they are not true. Not all 6s are prone to hysterical thinking -- some of us are just cautious, skeptical, questioning, and feel like there's no solid ground at times to stand on. So don't rule out 6 because of ridiculous conspiracy theories.
