Recent some kind creatures have treated me exactly like what I am, offering me things and treating me as very small, and the amount of euphoria it gave me was incredible.

So have any of y'all had species euphoria from being treated like what you are? If so would you like to share the details of what works for y'all?

Do any of y'all experience species dysphoria? If so what are some ways that it can be dealt with?

Feeling it a bit today.

Hi, we're plural and alterbeing/exist as nonhuman.

So I was wondering if others here were that too or mostly otherkin.

I, personally am a faerie and would totally transition if I could, I have been considering some medical things but for the rest I use technology.

Therefore I consider myself transspecies, I hope that is an accepted term here as I don't think it's dangerous/bad but I have run into many who have disliked me for using it or the term itself.

I’ll go first: my favorite part of being a dragon is that it means dragons are real, even if we only exist in human shapes.

I find it annoying when I can feel my tail hanging on my back, but I know that it doesn't exist. I can sometime feel pain with my tail, especially when I am in positions where my tail would've been crushed if it existed.

It would've been cool if the phantom sensation of my tail could've been more than a phantom sensation...

I am still figuring myself out but I am mainly voidkin, a shapeshifting entity made of void (examples of other forms are a dragon and a crow). Pleased to be here!

I don't know if this post will get any traction from other otherkins/therians, but...

I know this question is cliché, but could I be an otherkin?

Sometimes, I can feel a sort of phantom tail and fur on my body like right now. And sometimes, I am disappointed that I'm not really an anthro raccoon, that I don't have the same ability as them and me doing anything raccoon-like would be seen as weird. And sometimes, I feel weirdly excited at the idea of me being an anthro raccoon.

The thing is, all of that only happen sometimes. Not being an anthro raccoon doesn't make me miserable, definitely not as much as my gender (I'm transgender). I can live as humans. While there is some weird energy sometimes, most of the time, I'm not interested with the idea of me becoming an anthro racc. But I wouldn't mind becoming an anthro raccoon...
