I ask completely seriously ums, I’m part of a system but I was just curious if people could tell me more abt how being a therian is so I could tell if I am one, I’ve looked on google but it seems a bit confusing so I thought people who are therian could explain it better.
He's the youngest out of all my dogs, and he hasn't seen a lot because he was born in our house (unlike the other dogs we got when they were already adults). I was just sitting on my bed, minding my business, until he started barking at me! He's done something like this before when my nana put a beanie on, but this time felt different. It felt like he actually saw me as a canid, something most humans don't even do. Despite scaring me with his sudden barking, I feel pretty euphoric.
I just googled r/therian in the Reddit search bar, and a post came up [in a different sub] where basically everyone called us 'mentally sick'. Someone even said that kids should be put down for doing this, like with animals. I hate it. It's literally so wrong. There's a difference between thinking of yourself as an animal and KNOWING YOU'RE A HUMAN but identifying as an animal non-physically [I know there are physical therians and I don't mean to exclude!]. And people don't even TRY to understand. I had to lose friends because of their misconceptions. Now I feel disgusted with myself. I hate this...
It’s been awhile since I’ve written in here. Back in February, I stopped identifying as an alterhuman because I felt as though I was faking it, but I’ve never truly stopped questioning myself about this. Same for being a fictionkin. Am I an alterhuman? I still kind of feel like I am but I’m not sure. Am I a fictionkin? Unsure but I may be?? I don’t know, I’m still so confused after a year and a half of on and off questioning and it sucks </3
I am a 19 year old european wolf therian (or at least I think so). I am aware for a while now and due to my depression I did not have shifts for years. Now recently a few months ago I stayed in a clinic and with the help of my partner started really healing. Due to this, I started getting shifts again. I really fucking forgot how intense shifts can be. Where I need help in all this is the following: I've got a life to live, wow, obviously XD Just sometimes these really intense shifts can be quite the trouble, especially if it's a mental shift, where I temporarily lose my ability to speak or think like a human and act a lot like a wolf. I tried everything to my knowledge to help easen, prevent or delay these shifts, e.g. drawing sigils (yes, I am also a pagan witch), trying to focus on human stuff, forcing myself to look into a mirror, etc. But it does not always work and if it works, not always to the extent hoped for. Does anybody got any tips or tricks I could try or do I simply have to sit through them?
I Recently learned about Therians and think i may be one based on some feelings i have been having recently.
Mainly i have experienced parts of my body feeling different to how a human may percieve them. In particular my hands and feet feel padded and more like paws than hands/feet and i like that/it just feels right for them to be paws. I also feel like i sometimes have ears atop my head like a cat or wolf and occasionallt like i have a tail. I also on a soul level feel a desire to be free and living in the natural world. Spiritually i feel connected to wolves.
I am wondering what your experiences in figuring out you where therian, otherkin etc where and if they allign with mine in anyway, what advice you have.
im so glad i was with a friend when this happened because this would’ve gone much much worse. im a very friend desperate person because when im alone i start freaking out and calling everyone i know so that i can have company. because of this, i would’ve done just about anything to stay his friend. knowing older people just feels cool in a weird way. im pretty sure hes lurking around these therian subreddits to prey on younger people. he says he is seventeen, but he looks 23. i was shaking throughout this entire conversation and i almost started crying. he deleted the evidence of his face and snapchat handle and i couldn’t remember it for the life of me. please be careful and DO NOT TRUST PEOPLE ON REDDIT THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW. i am foolish and i jump at the opportunity to make friends so i dont think before i act. do NOT do what i did.
basically what the title says. Is there any way to crochet a tail and actually make it look like a tail?
I have a friend (who knows I am canine) who will pet me and talk to me like they would their dog, among other things, and oh my god the amount of euphoria that gives me!! Like yes oh my god please keep doing that. And I don’t mean in a weird way, in a we are very close friends way
Anywayssss, I love them forever and ever :3
Technically this isn't a theriotype post but the subs for this aren't very active so uh. I am also a lot of animals if that helps.
I have a huge full list (that probably needs tweaked) somewhere in my phone, but I usually lose track of the things on it when I haven't been actively looking through it or having shifts of all the types there.
Out of nowhere, she just addressed me as "my little dandelion"? Which caught me completely off guard because I *am* a dandelion! I had forgotten I was a dandelion until she said it!
This is the same partner who forgets her own birthday frequently. I think it's sweet that she remembers things like that even with her memory loss
Hiii! So I’ve been learning quads for about a month now but haven’t had anyone to review my form (It’s hard for me to view myself objectively). So, is this good? Any glaring issues? (Ignore the lack of a buck lol, that’s what im gonna work on next). One thing I can’t seem to fix is how close my feet are to the jump when i come down; I haven’t hit it yet, but it’s only a matter of time. any tips for avoiding that? I’d appreciate any feedback, really. Thanks in advance!
also, out of curiosity, how long did it take you guys to master a high jump? And what’s the highest you can jump? (Sorry i’m a bit nosy lol)
Got these gloves today and haven’t wanted to take them off bc they remind me so much of being a grey wolf and a werewolf!!
Also I tried quads for the first time today!! Just with no wolf gear on bc I have none😭
For the mods, no I’m not like 10, I’m just short, I’m 15
I swear there was at least 3 more pixels in those pictures before lol
I have bought so many tails but none of them feel right on me. I want one I can wear around the house, roll around in, and sleep with on that won't break, won't sit weird, won't feel too full, lays against me realistically, etc. I have faux fur, a real tail, custom made tails, and none of them work. Is there even a tail out there that would fit what I want? I tried using real tail and it snapped (I glued it back together)
I am a dog. I don't feel like I fit the therian label, but I feel like I fit the alterhuman label. I am a dog, I act like a dog, I vocalize like a dog, etc. But the therian experience doesn't sound like me. Is that normal?
Hi everyone, I'm HJ and I'm a Hippie.
I stumbled onto r/therian and r/therianbutbetter recently and have become genuinely curious.
I'm not here to judge, or be hateful, but instead to hear your personal takes and individual voices.
What's it like to be a therian and/or other hearted? What does being a part of this community mean to you?
Hello. The names Airy, Alrhough we collectively refer to ourselves as Vinny (for simplicity). Quite a few of us are therian, so I decided to join this sub :) (I myself am therian too).
It’s nice to meet you guys (im à Mearn’s coyote/Western Marsh Harrier/Iberian wolf). I’m also Objectkin and a fictive, but that’s not really on topic.
