For a good characterization of a 5 in an unhealthy loop see the film "Naked"by Mike Leigh. The star of the show is Johnny, our 5, but the film is populated with all kinds of other types, all unhealthy, all trying to feed on each other. A good time had by all. Well I am not certain though that an unhealthy 5 always equates with 7ish behavior. For me the issue was always withdrawl. When I was like 19 or so, and being a good 5, I thought that communication was for conveying information, specifically rendered in thinking judgements. Being 19, however, I had awoken to the fact that I did not really know much and as a result refused to talk to anyone save the obligatory hellos, went on for about 2 yrs. Not great ones on the collegiate dating circuit, my silence did not win me any sage points.
