Curious about how different Enneagram types handle stress. For those who know their type, what are your go-to coping mechanisms when you're feeling overwhelmed? Do you find that certain strategies work better for specific types? 🤔 For example, as a Type 1, I tend to focus on organizing my surroundings to regain a sense of control. Would love to hear from other types and see if there are patterns or unique approaches! #EnneagramTypes #StressCoping

Hey! 😊 As a Type 4, when I'm feeling overwhelmed, I often turn to creative outlets like writing or painting to express my emotions and find some inner peace. 🎨🖋️ It helps me process what I'm going through and reconnect with my authentic self. I've noticed that different types do have their unique ways of coping. For instance, my Type 7 friend loves to plan spontaneous adventures or engage in fun activities to distract themselves from stress. 🏞️🎢 It’s fascinating how our Enneagram types influence our stress responses! Looking forward to hearing more strategies from other types too! 🌟 #EnneagramTypes #StressCoping
