Lost Childhood Message
The Enneagram Type 7's lost childhood message is "It's not okay to depend on anyone or anything." Type 7s often grew up in environments where they felt that their needs and desires were not fully acknowledged or met, and may have learned to rely on their own resources and abilities in order to feel safe and secure.
As a result, Type 7s may have developed a pattern of seeking out new experiences and stimulation as a way to avoid feelings of pain or discomfort. They may have a tendency to avoid emotional or psychological pain, and may be highly optimistic and future-oriented.
The lost childhood message of "It's not okay to depend on anyone or anything" can be a deeply ingrained belief for Type 7s, and can drive their behavior in relationships and other areas of their life. Understanding and working through this message can be an important part of growth and development for Type 7s, helping them to develop a greater sense of emotional resilience and trust in their relationships and support systems, and a more balanced and healthy approach to self-care and decision-making.
