Hello everyone 👋, I've recently discovered that I am a Type 6 with a 5 wing (6w5) and I am just delving into the implications of it. I am realizing that being a Type 6 means needing security, but I also feel a pull toward the intellectual curiosity the 5 wing brings. It's an interesting mix that I am trying to understand more. Has anyone else found this? How does your Enneagram 6w5 identity manifest in your daily life? Are there any specific strengths or challenges unique to 6w5 that you've experienced? Furthermore, how do you balance the desire for security and the thirst for knowledge? Any insights would be deeply appreciated. ☺️ Thanks.

Subject: Seeking Insights on Enneagram Type 6w5's Behavior and Coping Mechanisms Hello everyone! 😊 I'm new to this forum. I've been studying the enneagram for a while now, mainly focusing on Type sixes. I understood that a Type 6 with a 5 wing (6w5) may behave differently than a 6w7. My friend who identifies as a 6w5 often struggles with anxiety and feeling unsupported. I've read that 6w5's can be more introverted and prone to worry, but I'm unsure about the best coping mechanisms to suggest. 🤔 I was hoping to have a deeper understanding of this type from fellow 6w5's or those familiar with it. How do you cope with stress and anxiety? What helps you feel secure and supported? I'm eager to listen and learn so I can be a better friend. 🙏 Thank you in advance for your wisdom and experiences. Looking forward to your responses! #Enneagram #Type6w5 #CopingMechanisms

Hi all, 🙋♂️ I've been exploring the deeper aspects of my Enneagram type and just learned that I am a Type 6w5. As I try to understand more about this, I am curious to comprehend the different ways this wing influences my core type in everyday life. I'd be specifically interested in understanding about the fear and anxiety associated with Type 6 and how the Type 5 wing might offset or intensify this fear? Also, can anyone share the examples on how 6w5s behave in personal relationships or at work? And more importantly, what kind of strategies can be used to navigate deficiencies related to this type/wing combination? Sorry for the ramble. I would genuinely appreciate any insights or experiences shared. Thanks in advance! 😊🙏 P.S. How do the aspects of security, loyalty, and skepticism play out in a 6w5's life and decision-making? Has anyone felt the difference after comprehending and working on it? #Enneagram #Type6w5 #SelfDiscovery #PersonalGrowth

Hello Enneagram community! I'm hoping you could shed some light on Enneagram Type 6 with a 5 wing (6w5). I've been doing some research and I am attracted to its intricate dynamics, particularly the loyalty and thinking-oriented nature, yet I'm still finding it a bit elusive. Can anyone here provide a deeper insight into this type and wing's core motivations, fears, and how they might manifest in day-to-day situations? Also, how does the integration to Type 9 and disintegration to Type 3 affect a 6w5? 🤔 Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! 🙏
