Hey Lauren, Wow, thanks for sharing, that was a big message to share. I'm really glad I noticed your message, as I have just recently gotten out of my "victim four" mode. For me, I realized my "four" moods were being made more extreme by a mild depression. I did a little research and found out my symptoms were most likely caused by prolonged malnutrition or nutritional deficiency. And I tell ya, I've been eating Corn Flakes for dinner for about two years now. So anyway, I got a vitamin regimen going, cut out almost all meat and completely cut out putting sugar in things (coffee, cereal, etc.), got into raw fruits and veggies, and man but did things ever completely turn around for me!! So I really identify with your "healthy self-discipline" and was really grateful to hear someone else with a similar story to mine. It's like I get to keep all the best parts of being a four, like deep emotional bonds and a despair of the mundane, but don't have to put up with the insane mood shifts, high drama, and self-pity. Best wishes to you in sorting out all the other things you mentioned in your message. Keep diving down for the truth, it's what us fours do best. -- Mark
