For me, a lot of my alterhuman journey has been influenced by spirituality and religion, trauma and mental illnesses. It still is but in a way I consider and work toward being more grounded. I used to experience intense mental shifts with psy-shifts* as well but would be completely out of touch with reality, making so much of my experience early on tinted by psychosis.
After a couple of years sorting through it I've started to reconnect with those parts of myself and I've realized that most of what I feel to be true from all of my past memories and posts was the connection to the ability to become or to remember the experience of being various animals, that I am ancient and have been on earth throughout the ages for a very long time but I'm nowhere close to being one of the oldest, i feel tied to specific places, specific epithets and areas of "power" so to speak. I don't exactly desire the complexity of figuring out exactly where I was and feel claiming to be anyone or anything specific is extremely disrespectful as a spiritual individual.
This blog will remain dedicated to artistically expressing how my soul feels and how memories still come across to me, as well as written form posts whenever I have the rare shift or have anything worthwhile to share regarding being alter human. I currently identify as being alter human with polykin being the subcategory/title? I'm struggling to figure out how is best to respectfully tag everything but the way I view myself is I believe that I am something other than human stuck inside of a human body doing human things with a little bit of bonus extra magical spiritual benefits on the side because of where my soul/essence whatever comes from.
*Psy-Shift is when you feel your energy shift into the body parts of your kintypes or natural shape but you're not physically changing.
