Yeah I think type 4 sounds like my childhood, but that's mostly because my dad was an ESTJ and fun was simply not acceptable.

there's no doubt that I'm a 9 now.

Not that I REALLY doubted it since I changed my type to 9 (from 5, and before that, 4), but I'd read type 4 description every now and then and would find myselfkreally identifying with it, at almost every health level and even with childhood orientation.

9 and 7 hit the mark most for me. Not surprising that I have them both in my trifix.

6 and 8 rings quite clear to me.
I'm always pondering between the two.
