My First Experience: When did I realize I was non-human/alterhuman? (Warning: really long, cussing?) Part 1
It started my freshman year of college, I was scrolling on social media instead of studying and discovered a "Therian tiktok compilation" on Yt. I don't have tiktok so I clicked on it, curious about what it was. I watched a few of the videos and still didn't quite understand it so I looked it up and did some research (I figured it was good practice cause I wanna go into research). I found the wiki, the therian subreddit and a few therian/alterhuman yt creators (Therian Territory and the Draconic Priestess to be specific). I spent hours watching them, reading the wiki and the subreddit. After a while I also discovered the alterhuman identifies otherkin, otherheart, and otherlink.
However while I was doing this, and researching everything there is to know about all of this. Something started to click. I can't fully remember when but when I discovered the term "alterhuman" and the idea of feeling like your not human something about it just made sense to me. Like I had found the proper word for what I kept feeling all my life. Once I had the realization I decided to start asking myself, "what am I?" And started questioning.
If you came this far thank you for listening to my story. And congratulations for making it this far. I will post the second part as this is really long already. ;-;"
