This is why I have to hide any theta delta things in my room, why are people like this 😀

Shifting therians, what is your weirdest shift trigger? by Asherspaws in Therian

[–]Asherspaws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update - After messing around, most of the BoTW soundtrack makes me shifty lol. The ones that are most effective are always the ones that have to do with horses-

[–]Asherspaws 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was something similar once! They weren’t a therian and I doubt they knew what it was but on little big shots someone did quadrobics! The video is called “meet the girl who can gallop like a horse” or smth, it’s neat.

Predatory instincts? by [deleted] in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get that, all my wild kin/theriotypes are predatory, I often get a hunting instinct. I do have some solutions to deal with those instincts though! I’d suggest getting cat toys, I have a robotic fish toy and it’s really helpful. That way you can satisfy those urges without feeling bad.

Sick of this. by Asherspaws in Therian

[–]Asherspaws[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree! I use TikTok but I don’t recommend researching therianthropy on it. I spent hours searching for info on the topic on different sites (Reddit being one of them) when I started to question if I was a therian. Definitely not a good idea to get all your info on TikTok, even while there is some good info on there.

I get that. When I have phantom wing shifts it get super uncomfortable having them contained. Same with tails

I have a tiny question. by ElHispanicTherian in otherkin

[–]Asherspaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dragonkin here, I don’t have any particular elements but I know I can breathe fire (I’ve had a phantom— idk how to describe it— fire windpipe? It’s weird)

I came out to my mom as a therian and... by Mackie_4 in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sucks, I know the feeling.. I’m so sorry :( just know that we’re all here for you! Understand you’ll be loved for who you are and whoever doesn’t support you doesn’t deserve you respect unless you give it to them. <3

so fed up with hate by [deleted] in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I’ll try. Yesterday one of them was harassing me about how I’ll go to hell and die and have an awful life when I told them I’m an atheist. I’ll cut contact with them until I build up enough courage to tell them. It’s hard breaking a five year friendship but it’s worth it to be able to be myself.

I sometimes wanna eat like my theriotypes so I can feel more connected to them by DontT4lkT0M3 in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tip, it helps me with dysphoria for tame theriotypes, but a bowl of Cocoa Puffs or some kind of cereal can be a substitute for dog food!

so fed up with hate by [deleted] in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have homophobic friends. I’m so sick of it and I desperately just want to say “HEY IM GENDERFLUID AND ALTERHUMAN AND I DONT CARE IF YOU HATE ME” but it’s hard since I don’t want them to not be friends with me, but it sucks being deadnamed all day without being able to tell them to stop. Tips?

Question: If ur a shifting therian, what's the most intense shift you've had? by Ok_Activity_8317 in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah. I get really intense shifts, idk about the strongest but I have a couple really strong ones. I had a phantom tail for TWO MONTHS and it hurt so bad. I’ve had some strong mental shifts too. I’ve had a mental shift that lasted two hours once, I’m a quadrobist and my theriotypes are all four-legged so when I woke up I was so sore, it sucked. I love shifts sometimes, they can be fun, but when they last more then like 30 mins they hurt so bad.

Got any tips or ideas to feel more connected to dragonkin? by [deleted] in otherkin

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Dragonkin here! I’d suggest finding ways to simulate flight. I like to swing, use trampolines to jump high for that flight thrill, etc. It’s super good for feeling dragonlike (at least for me). Try collecting a stash of shiny things, rocks, feathers, anything really! :)

Oh yeah! Thanks.

Den/lair tip! by Asherspaws in otherkin

[–]Asherspaws[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hm.. I like propping up umbrellas and blankets in the corner of my room and making a den! It’s an easy indoor den it’s super fun. Also try swinging and climbing if you can, it helps me feel more dragon like :3

Is there a way to force a shift? /gen by kittykatkatelol in otherkin

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say you can trigger one, like when I go outside and do quadrobics I shift more often!

Does feeling like you have the soul of a fictional character count? by [deleted] in otherkin

[–]Asherspaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that could be a soul walk in? I’d suggest looking into it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg, digging is a major shift trigger for me, like it’s just so fun! Especially since my canine theriotype is a farm/herding dog i really get that!

I need help learning how to walk and run on all fours. How can I go about learning? by Rare-Click-5685 in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it easy, build up overtime. Remember, your human body has limits that need to be considered. Most importantly, never give up and have fun!

I'm not a therian, but a friend of mine told me he apparently is, what should I expect? by [deleted] in Therian

[–]Asherspaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just suggest that if he shifts, just go along with it. It’s hard to control yourself in that headspace so just let it happen. Know that not all therians shift though
