Species Euphoria

Unfortunately, often, I feel very dysphoric. However, something quite different happened earlier, but it was not unpleasant, I think I recognized this feeling... it's species euphoria.

I was walking around the city with my friends (something I'm not used to doing because my parents are strict and I don't really feel comfortable with people who don't know that I am alterhuman), the sun was beginning to go down in the sky, which lengthened the shadows of my small town, we went to a park with lots of trees and bushes. It made me very shifty, because my theriotype lives in the forest and is crepuscular. My best friend started climbing a tree, I couldn't help but do the same, because I really love doing that (maybe because I'm a feline).

We then went to the store where we saw beautiful stuffed animals of tigers, panthers, etc. and one of the people I was with said "oh it looks like [my real name]! Cute on the outside, wild and strong inside" I felt so good at that moment! She can't know how much her words are how I feel! (besides almost everyone I know compares me to a feline without knowing that I am therian, while I hide my shifts and I take care to appear a minimum "normal", I find that funny). Then we bought some chips and Monster (I had never tasted this drink because my parents... you know. Well, I like it) I felt free, for the first time in a long time. I saw the world differently, finally, human life is not always a cage, finally, life has a taste, finally, life can be worth living, and I decided that it would be the case for mine. Finally, dysphoria is not invincible. Now I look at life with envy, with excitement, and no longer with fear.

We tend to forget it, with this dysphoria, this feeling of euphoria.

Life is beautiful, even if it can have bad sides.

But it is thanks to these bad sides that we realize how fantastic the rest is.

I know very well that it is difficult, even impossible to believe it, with this dysphoria that hides your view. But it is real, even if you think you feel too bad to have this felling.

I really wish you to experience this wonderful thing, it is truly this thing that gives meaning to my life, and surely to others.

Take a moment for yourself, treat yourself, go out with friends if you want, or just go out in nature, in short, treat yourself, it's important. You are important, and you deserve to feel good.

I swear, I just exist and suddenly my brain is like "WAIT!!! What if we are ___ kin? That would explain so much!" My kin list gets longer the more I discover.

Like I might be conceptkin. I'm questioning silence kin. But the real interesting part is im dece.tly sure I am nothingkin. Cool to discover I'm a conceptkin of nothingness itself.

Because it would explain a lot. Sometimes the fact I exist feels wrong. But not the "I don't belong way" or a depression kinda way. More like, I should be nothing. That is what I am. Which is extremely confusing with both the fact I have a human body (why? It sucks) and because I have other kin types which aren't nothing. Especially the diety part of me which feels huge and omnipresent, mixed with the fact I am nothing. Gotta love contradictory kintypes.

But I can't complain, because for the first time in a while, I feel less broken. I feel like I can finally begin to understand myself. Some parts of it sucks, Because I can't fit what I should be, but at least I feel less wrong in my existence. I am otherkin, and geez, does that make my life finally make sense.

But seriously, any conceptkins out there reading this? Shout out to all y'all. All my love to you and any other otherkin. <3

I realize I haven't said this, so let me do it now: this blog is a safe space for weird people. This is a safe space for plurals, systems (no matter the origin), alterhumans, LGBTQ+ people of all kinds, neurodivergent folks, the mentally ill, regressors (pet, age, or otherwise) and so many other groups I didn't list. Even if you're just generally weird or an 'outcast,' you are welcomed here. You shouldn't need to hide your interests, hobbies, or personalities just because it isn't 'normal.' I'm a Little Nightmares-obsessed creature who identifies as an omen of chaos and does quads around her house for fun. I'm not in a position to call people weird, and until you start to intentionally hurt people, you don't need to hide here.

You are valid. You are loved. You would be missed.

If you have nobody in your life you think loves you and would miss you, just know: I love you, and I would miss you. I may not know you, but that doesn't stop me.

Don't forget that. You are loved, no matter what.

I don't see my otherkinity as something in a past life, apart from being an archangel.

I am NOT human, my body literally feels like one big skin suit I have to wear every day until death, uniform basically. I am 2 fictional characters NOW! I am a tiger NOW! I am an unnatural thing NOW! I am a vocaloid NOW! Not in some far away memory from the past... Let's see more ppl embracing their non-humanity in a present tense if that makes sense

[not-really-all-that-human]

Just saw someones DNI list that had "dni if you're anti alterhuman" right next to "dni if you're otherlink"

[otterwithafancytophat]

My blog is welcome to all people who would be considered cringe.

Quadratic cat mask wearer? Welcome friend! Let's rest those joints I've got some dog beds in here!

Neopronoun users with 8 different xenogenders? That's so cool!!! Come tell me about what drew you to them!!!

You're autistic or have an intellectual disability or generally neurodivergent in any way (I'm talking to you bipolar dogs, schizophrenic deer, lizards with ocd, etc) you are welcome here anytime. I see you and you're doing amazing!!!

Dress visibly therian/furry in public with tails and ears and other things? You're so brave and so cool and you inspire every child who passes you on the street.

And to the young therians. The ones who are so afraid of joining this community due to other members being mean or gatekeepy. You are welcome here. Figure yourself out. Be "cringe" or whatever. You got a very brave little bird dog here to protect you against anyone who's being mean.

If you identify as an animal, no matter what else you do about it, you're a therian. Congrats.
