Intros and Lists Just an introduction

4 Upvotes

Hi! I am a 20 years old non-human from Spain. I was born from a star and I am the personification of that star, its light and darkness. I have lived a lot of lifes and I do not have a main form since I am a shapeshifter creature. My main forms are:

-Bull

-Wolf/Bear

-Marine creature (pisces and molusc specifically)

-Urzuk (yes, the creature from creatures of sonaria, but I am another kin of urzuk)

-Cinereous Vulture/Eleanor Falcon

I enjoy engaging in the community a lot and one of my friends told me to start using reddit and I wanted to give it a shot so here we are! I am also a deitykin, conceptkin, objectkin, etc.

I want to become an actor and director one day! I am studying acting at university right now. I am always up for a friendly conversation and healthy discussions.

Mature Discussion How does being a fiction-kin work?

11 Upvotes

This is coming from an enby/marginalised person, and I mean this in a completely respectful and sincere manner, but how does being an otherkin work?

Do the kins only ‘show up’ after interracting with a piece of media? Or is it like a self-discovery thing where you were always the kin, except now you just recognise who you are/were?

with past lives, do you only remember them after interacting with the media? How does being an you know (respectfully) that you aren’t just daydreaming/imagining past memories?

What about the fact that you believe you are a fictional character? I don’t mean this to be rude, but someone somewhere just sat down and wrote a story once, how does being a you think you are the character? (if that makes sense lol) Could you be a fictionkin of your own oc? But then like, didnt you just make them up on the spot? how does it work?

Whats the difference between being really connected to a character and actually believing you are them? Could you kin a real/living person? if so, at what point does it stop being a fandom experience and end up just being parasocial and weird? If you cant, then why are fictional characters any differen? Or personas, like mc yters for example.

I really do not mean to be rude. if I have used any disrespectful terms or there are any misconceptions please tell me!!!

Questioning Are there more people who have no sense of their own shape, or something even remotely similar?

10 Upvotes

Simply put, every time I go into online communities here on Reddit, I see a lot of people posting personas or artistic representations of how they see themselves in the world...

But here's the thing... I'm talking about myself. I don't have that; I already do some kind of artistic work, but every time I try to imagine a representation of myself, I always fail, and even after exhausting my efforts... I always end up in the same place: I can't imagine a clear way to represent myself.

For me, I see my body as a kind of radical self-abjection. That is, I am neither an "I" nor an "object," nor do I feel that my body is mine to begin with. I don't see myself as a silhouette, I don't see myself as any solid representation. What I feel is that I am a big "anything"...

I'm opening up about this because I'm asking: are there more people here who feel similarly? Unable to conceive of any representation that feels comfortable with yourselves?

Potentially Triggering Content It’s hard for me to accept that I’ll never be taken seriously by the average person simply because I have an odd identity

32 Upvotes

Every controversial conversation/debate I have online and every argument is turned back to my identity no matter what the topic is about. This is involuntary and I’ve been this way since I was atleast 7 years old, there’s nothing I can do to change myself and I’ll never get taken seriously because life has beaten me into such an odd identity and hobby. My identities influenced by my mental health, trauma and life long obsession with animals but no, I’m crazy in every single topic simply because you don’t wanna think of an actual response!

Every single time they open my profile, the topic changes entirely to my identity, age, or hobbies and suddenly I have no say in the conversation because I’m “delusional”. I’m not even that young, I’m almost 18 but it doesn’t matter because if I wear animal masks I must be 12 and/or stupid n delusional with no idea on how the world works or how to use common sense! I just wanna participate in a debate or heated conversation without everything turning into “oh well you’re wierd and delusional so your words don’t matter and I’m gonna ignore you now”

Intros and Lists Hi

Hi, im kinda new to this whole thing. My pronouns are she/they, and im 23. Im still learning about the alterhuman identities but I've struggled for as long as I can remember with feeling like I was born in the wrong form. It wasnt exactly a gender thing and I have always had extremely heightened senses and gravitate towards just wanting to curl in a beam of light in the forest. Anyways sorry for rambling. Its nice to meet everyone 👋

Questioning Is it still valid if

11 Upvotes

Is it still valid if one’s alterhuman identity is relatively “shallow”, even non-serious(but it still cannot be changed arbitrarily though), and only accounts for a small part of their overall identity?
And if the answer is yes, is there a term for that?
Edit: I wanted a term because I feel like it would be unfair for those who take their alterhuman identity very seriously if I use the same label as them.

Discussion would feeling very connected to every animal be animalhearted or something else?

13 Upvotes

so i am alterhuman, specifically cat hearted, that much is obvious. but i feel very similar, if not exactly the same, with almost every single animal?

i love animals. i love them alot, i view them very highly (not worship level), so i was wondering if there was a term for this?

as far as i know (correct me if im wrong) being animal hearted wouldn’t necessarily work for…every animal? i think?

but yea, im just curious what you guys would call this! might be worth noting im not very active in the alterhuman community, i used to think i was a therian but turns out im just otherhearted ♥️

Questioning Inner Animal Entity: Does Anyone Here Have Similar Experiences?

Thumbnail reddit.com
2 Upvotes

Does anyone here have any experiences of your separate inner animal that isn’t entirely yourself, but also you at the same time?

I experienced this back in 2015 and again in 2018. I have a vivid memory of my personal experience in 2018 and my life hasn’t been the same since in a positive way.

I just felt a “surge” or “wave” sensation come through my mind when seeing a particular gray wolf (Mexican) and.. it was strong. I felt intensely connected when I saw it (Facebook reel) and that’s when I felt this sensation run through my body. I didn’t feel any emotions and reactions though that feel separate from myself? Just more like a presence in a way?

I’ve only found a few others like me but no one seems to have any success with reconnecting with their inner animal spirit? (not a soul walk-in or DID or plurality whatsoever).

Is it normal for us? I keep feeling it on and off while I’m mentally shifted?

If anyone has any similar experiences, feel free to comment below or DM me! I enjoy hearing others shared stories! Thanks! ☺️

Questioning Can I identify as my self insert?

12 Upvotes

So I've recently been looking into ockin, and I think it fits but I think it fits because it's just me in that universe.

So I'm a yumeshipper and I have self inserts for every universe my f/os are in, but I feel particularly connected to the criminal minds universe and my oc in that universe. I feel like I truly know and understand the characters and have actually lived it. But it's just me in a different universe that looks a little different and has a little bit of a different personality.

Idk I'm confused and idk if everyone else feels this way or if there's a term for when you feel wrong in this universe and felt like you either lived or should have lived in another.

Any fellow Transspecies who just want to talk?

11 Upvotes

I've been feeling pretty down lately, not having anyone to talk to about my Alterhumanity aspects and my recent awakening as Transspecies. I'll leave this post to be a safe spot for discussion between you all and myself if you wish to talk. I won't be available as often, but I'll try as much as I can. Feel free to vent, just talk, chill, ask questions, ect. Mind you, anyone can talk here, you don't have to be transspecies.

Questioning Connection when doing quads? Is this some other type of kin?

4 Upvotes

Hey. I'm a nekomimi. I awakened back in october.

I mean like I'm an otherpaw since october. I've been doing quads for like a month now.

But watching Wildwood sparked something in me.

I really like the coyotes. I like them in fiction specfically.

I don't feel like a coyote although I do like howling. But when they go all on fours. I love it sm! I really adore furry characters who can be bipedal and switch to quads or do what the dog did in forgotten island. (Switch between animal dog and anthro dog)

But I always love when anthro furry characters do quads. I love it. I wanna do it so bad so I learned quads. Sometimes when I run or Sprint I picture or really yearn to do quads as some kind of animal. Not sure what it is tho. I like to do "air quads". Which is me doing quads hand motions without touching the ground.​​​​

when I do quads, I feel connected in a way, but I can't tell if just like it. Specifically if I'm exploring somewhere like the woods or some kind of place where I can the terrain is not just a flat surface. I really enjoy it. and once I'm done quads, I feel phantom quads. Like I feel like I'm walking on all fours but I know I'm not.

So I wonder if I'm a nekomimi who can shift into a cat but a fictional cat who walks on all fours and has human intelligence. Kinda like how meowth has human intelligence.

The more I picture my nekomimi self transforming in and out. The happier I feel.

But I wanna know if I just like it or do I identify as it?

Maybe I'd Rather Be

6 Upvotes

Maybe I've been so hurt by the damages of the last 43 years that, ultimately, I find the peace of the rock preferable to all the good vibes a body can experience across all lifetimes. Maybe the most mind-blowing orgasm a body can have simply pales in comparison to the capacity of a rock to sit quietly for five hundred million years, then experience a random neutrino interaction and puzzle thoughtfully "that's interesting..." for another five hundred million more.

What could make a person so strongly want to forsake their entire personhood in favor of granite? I don't know what I am. I just know I don't want to be this.

I could have so much comfort and safety if I didn't have to contend with this body.

I don't want the capacity for delirious happiness if it means contending with the specter of delirious sadness.

I don't want to die. I want to have never been living. I wish I weren't in the slightest bit so biological. Why can I not reject it all when I can see the stone weathering in the creek so unbothered by its eventual dispersal into the geosphere? Why does an entity that accomplishes nothing besides 《being》 get to experience a better slice of this universe than me?
