Unhealthy Levels
Level 7: When dreams fail, become self-inhibiting and angry at self, depressed and alienated from self and others, blocked and emotionally paralyzed. Ashamed of self, fatigued and unable to function.
Level 8: Tormented by delusional self-contempt, self-reproaches, self-hatred, and morbid thoughts: everything is a source of torment. Blaming others, they drive away anyone who tries to help them.
Level 9: Despairing, feel hopeless and become self-destructive, possibly abusing alcohol or drugs to escape. In the extreme: emotional breakdown or suicide is likely. Generally corresponds to the Avoidant, Depressive, and Narcissistic personality disorders. (all about me)

Type Four EnneaThought®
Self-esteem and self-confidence will develop only from having positive experiences, whether or not you believe that you are too vulnerable and are not ready to have them. (Understanding the Enneagram, 337)
The above is information that describes a place I'm in, not proud of it by no means but out of fear of losing my creative self and my coping vehicle I continue to create the dog series. Very tired, not sleeping and so overwhelmed.
Small prayer this morning,
My Creator, if I get into a situation today that needs me to respond with silence, help me to
use my silence in a good and sacred way. In my silence, let me be talking to You and You talking
to me. Silence is the way of the warrior.
