Hiii, Oskar again!! Sorry if this is another dumb seeming question but I’m curious (again, oh boy..) if anyone else also seems to have dreams related to their identity?? I had one the other night and it was really weird but stuck out to me. It’s kind of past life related, I’m curious if anyone else has had a similar dream or just dreams about your theriotype in general. Again, sorry if this is dumb!! I just like to hear other peoples experiences :p thanks!!

I'm a snake therian, and I've tried a couple of ways, but I haven't quite had the time to try any more; is anybody else here a snake therian, and has been able to figure out a way to move like a snake? It just hurts a lot when I try, and I don't really want to injure myself... I >do< want to feel closer to my theriotype, I am just struggling with this in particular.

I just graduated high school, and many of my peers were anti-fur (and anti-therian by proxy). I currently live in the same city, so I might run into them, but I'm moving in September. In September, I plan on moving to the new city full time, and don't really want to ever live in my current city again. Basically, what I'm saying is that I'll never see these haters again.

Should I wear my lemur ears? I'm a bit nervous about it, but I also want to do it. Idrk. I'll never see my peers again, but I'm still worried. Thoughts?

Bit more context, me my mom and my dad were driving home from a friend's house and we passed this like forest thing ( ya know when theres a river and the road goes over it and theirs forest next to it. ) and i look back cuz i thought i saw like a dog or somthing and what do i see? A blood smeared spot on the road with a deer right behind it with tire marks denting it ( yeah ik pretty groos ) and i realised that bro it was a legit f***ing almost fully grown white tailed deer. Like brothar do u not understand the concept of LOOKING WHERE UR DRIVING. like bro i swear to hatsune miku people need to be more careful.

A year or 2 ago, i identified as a therian. While i did that i learned a ton about it, so i understand how you guys feel to a certain level. I used to claim to be a therian after i saw a bunch of videos. And yea it was fun to wear masks and see other people’s creativity, but i realized that i wasn’t one. and now i look at other younger kids who also say they are therians, but now im wondering if a ton of younger kids who say they are therians are really just influenced by media. i love therians and think they are really cool, but what if (just like me) this IS just a phase for SOME people? i’m sorry if this doesn’t make a lot of sense and if i worded it wrong please tell me and i’ll correct myself. just a genuine question, no hate intended.
edit: if you are simply living your life im not trying to judge you. The ones im trying to talk about are the people who are like really certain they are one and might get aggressive if you say otherwise. (this question is still kind of a stupid still) i dont know how to exactly word out what im thinking but thanks for feedback.

I am definitely not a therian by the most common definition of "being an animal trapped inside a human body" or something like that. I'm definitely a human and want to be a human, but from my early childhood I have identified myself with cats and I have mimicked some of their behaviour. For example, I really enjoy drinking from bowls using my tongue, like cats do(why aren't human tongues like theirs?😭). I like small dark places. I really love being scratched(hope it's the correct word) around my neck and ears like cats, sometimes I like to play with ropes and balls like cats and many other small things. I also just generally really love cats and everything connected with cats.

The reasons I got an idea that it's therianthropy- it's mostly involuntary, it's from the childhood, it has never dissapeared, normal people usually don't do/enjoy things I do and they are too unusual to connect to neurodivergence.

So my question is- is this phenomenon still considered a therian or is it something different I just don't know about? I like being really really precise, especially when talking about who I am.

Thanks everyone🧡

I have a white wolf theirotype.

But after watching a few documentaries I'm not so sure anymore.

How can I differentiate the various types of wolves?

And if I notice that I'm pretty much every type of wolf (white, grey, black [idk any others, so]), is there a term to it?

Hi everyone, I'm posting here some questions in search of help and other point of view.

So, I've ben a therian since I was a kid, I remember identify myself a lot in a wolf, and sometimes I had dreams about becoming a wolf and living life in that form.

At first I thought I was the only one like that but then when I grow up and eventually got access to the internet I discover the word therian and the community. At that time I was 13 or 14.

Since then I always been 100% sure to be a Wolf, specifically a black wolf.

Then a few days ago (Now I'm 27) I've started to realize that maybe I'm a wolfdog.

That's because even though I have a strong connection with wolves I'm feeling more like a domesticated one, because I like to be took care of and feel domesticated. The main thing is that I like to wear a collar (I made it myself) and since I wore it it felt a little bit like "home".

Anyway I still feel strongly like a wolf, specifically in the shape of fantom body parts and so on.

I just don't know if I'm just a wolf that like to feel domesticated or a wolfdog.

Thanks you so much if you read it all and sorry for my terrible English, it isn't my main language.

We want to make therian gear bc we don't have much money but were unsure how to make anything. Dose anyone have advice or a place with good Tutorials?
