I am slowly coming to terms (finally) with the fact that I am a therian or alterhuman in some way. While a part of me is genuinely relieved and starting to accept and welcome this part of my identity, another part of me is scared.

Therianthropy and alterhumanity are not talked about in a good light anywhere that I see, and my entire social circle is filled with people who make fun of them constantly. I feel like I can never be open about this part of myself because of this, like I need to keep it hidden.

As a child, I always felt connected to animals, specifically canids like wolves and coyotes and some feline species. I was obsessed, but not in a normal childlike way, but I felt like I was one with them. I was the kind of kid to spend recess on all fours running around and barking like I was a wolf. It always felt normal to me, like that is just what I am.

I would have dreams (I still do) consistently in a coyote or wolf’s body, running through the wilderness of North America. It always felt right to me, if that makes sense??

I would experience shifts, phantom senses, and similar feelings I could never put a name to.

When I heard about therians, I instantly knew something connected. In early high school, I would join therian online communities, engage with others like me, before realizing that this was something individuals got heavily bullied for, so I left out of fear.

Now that I’m an adult with more self confidence, I feel a need to explore and accept this part of myself before these feelings eat me alive. None of the things I’ve experienced ever stopped, and honestly they’ve only gotten harder to ignore.

Honestly, if there are any PNW therians or alterhumans out there (or honestly anywhere) who wanna talk about this at all, I’d be so happy to connect with others out there!!!

Hey alterhumans, need ya help. Would it be crazy to say I’m a puppy with wings?

For a longggg time I’ve yearned for the sky and have felt phantom wings similar to when I feel a phantom snout, I think, pretty much since I was very little. I’ve been trying to go through all kinds of creatures with wings to see if I’m kinning anything else, but I really just don’t think I’m anything other than a puppy. Nothing else feels right. Can I kin smth like that? Kinning a puppy with wings? Is there a name for this??

(Sorry if any of the terms I used are wrong, I get a little confused sometimes!)

Anyone have any tips for connecting to this kintype? Or species euphoria?

DO NOT POST YOUR ADDRESS ONLINE TO MEET OTHER THERIANS

I have seen kids ages ranging from 9-13 ish post their ages, faces, and addresses in the hopes of meeting other therians. DO NOT DO THIS!!! Please for the love of everything don't do this, don't post anything publicly, no one should know anything personal about you.

"Well I want irl therian friends!"

You can make irl friends differently, try drawing the delta on your hand or wearing a delta necklace. I know it's not easy to find other therians, but don't post anything about you.

You could be hurt, assaulted, robbed, ect. Bad things can and WILL happen. Be safe online please!

Wolf Metamorph` note N10

The urge - laying on the floor. Better - on the floor covered in blankets, so it's like nest/dog bed. If the roommate could find you - alert them so they don't get freaked out or step on your tail :P

Does anyone have any tips on how to figure our what breed(s) of domestic dog I am? I think I might be some kind of livestock gaurd dog but I don't think that's the only one..

i have long, pointy black ears. I seem like a mix between feline and canine. I like to eat berries. I have a really fluffy black tail.
