I have no question you are an ENFP. ESFP's are off buying the latest trendy clothes or frying in tanning beds.
Anyway in my experience ESXP and ENXP are very common for 7's. I've also known a handful of ISXP 7's.
An old 7w6 ESFP friend is in the grip of chronic alcoholism. He lacks any discipline in life and just lives
for the next pleasure. It seems to be a vicious cycle, because there is a lot of unstated bitterness and
helplessness in between the highs.
Andy is a 7w8 ENTP who can give real 7 answers. But he left the board recently.

Hi all....I'm new to the ennea-board, so i just want to say "hi!"
> As the typical 7, I strive to enjoy all that life has to offer - However, I've been acting in the typical low-functioning 1 (perfectionist ), due to stress & school. (Not to mention my gluttonous bad habits that are now catching up to me) I know i should strive to take on positive 5 aspects, but i'm finding it difficult to change my evil ways.... If any 7's out there have advice for 'healthy' coping that doesn't envolve perfectionism, please respond!
> I am fairly new to the enneagram, so every bit helps!
> If any 7's want to share their stories about evolving - I am totally intrested....I would like to know if drug abuse is a common theme among 7's...
