Enneagram and Marriage

Listen in as Christa helps you to understand mental health struggles paralleling each Enneagram type at their most stressful levels. When you're trying to find a road map, or what is clinically called a treatment plan, it's important not to self-diagnose, but to go to a trained mental health professional for an assessment. This episode is a guide for whom Enneagram work may just not be not enough at least initially. It is also a gentle reminder that it's OK to need extra support, medication or therapy when we have those darker seasons so we can get back on track with wonderful life goals and finding joy in the everyday! This episode covers types as they may correlate to: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Factitious Disorder Histrionic Personality Disorder Narcissistic Personality Disorder Major Depressive Disorder Avoidant Personality Disorder Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) Bipolar Disorder ADHD for children and adults Intermittent Explosive Disorder Dissociative disorders Resources: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/daily-life-coping/managing-stress-anxiety.html www.nami.org www.mayoclinic.org https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-career-within-you/201210/is-the-achiever-my-genes-my-upbringing-or-me https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-career-within-you/201210/is-the-achiever-my-genes-my-upbringing-or-me Head on over to enneagramandmarriage.com to check out all of our amazing freebies and resources!
