Physical Health and Being an 8

My therapist introduced me to enneagram and over time I have observed the patterns within myself that often align perfectly as an 8. Now I’m dealing with a health issue that has caused me to be dependent on those around me, which I’m not used to and it is causing a lot of internal turmoil. Wondering how 8s typically deal with similar situations where they are not able to be in control and have to rely on loved ones. TYIA!

Do you get bummed that people don't love you as fiercly as you love them?

I don't know if this is an 8 thing or just a me thing. Like, I show the f up for people. I will sacrifice for them. I feel so much more passionate and dedicated than the people around me.

It makes me feel like people don't really care about me.
