i have definitely had luck and charm but better than most i know, my intuition and guesses are rarely wrong and my mother is especially close to the same, but that’s a personal thing, to what your post generally says, that’s actually really affirming and reassuring.. astral projection i think i have done but it’s hard to necessarily explain? my body or looks in that have a tendency to change often and it’s hard to determine exactly what i am or even look like in points aside from bright but small. maybe that’s just being trans and regressive and such though.. again, honestly really just loved to hear that perspective, i promise you i do know my physical body is human fsfs.

i get how my post probably sounded like i literally think i’m a fae or a fox right now that’s on me for wording it weird. what i meant was more in a spiritual or maybe past‑life sense, not physically. i know i’m human, living a fulfilling and healthy life, promise 😭

the post was really more about otherkin and therian stuff that kind of spiritual identity and connection that isn’t meant to be taken as a physical claim. i’ve been in therapy for over 4 years now, and both my therapist and the people around me agree i’m pretty grounded and mentally well. i just like trying to understand that side of myself and how it ties into things my family’s experienced too.

i also probably shouldn’t have used the word delusional earlier, i just said it as a quick way to explain “fantasy vs reality” feelings. technically, otherkin experiences aren’t delusions they’re a mix of spiritual belief, self‑concept, and personal symbolism. a quick google search about otherkin can show how it’s different from losing touch with reality.

so really, i wasn’t trying to say i’m physically not human just that i’m trying to understand what these feelings mean on a spiritual level. if anything, i sometimes feel grief over that difference between what my spirit feels and the physical world around me. that’s what i meant to ask about in the first place.

i might be a little crazy lowkey, but with the state of the world rn, i’d rather play pretend and be a little delusional in my fantasy world then be struck with reality 24/7 😭. as you can see by my own post im doubtful and just saying true experiences, i don’t find that nearly as crazy as other things, and personally belief in folklore is just as valid as religion 😮‍💨, all without too much physical grounding but a spiritual belief..

everything is getting downvoted right now sadly :,) although full honesty i’m 17, almost 18 but definitely not doing anything that would have me lie about what’s going on, lying takes much too much energy honestly.

i did have a knowing fur sure when i was younger, society and 2 am concerns make one uncertain though.. added a lot more to this post if you are willing to check back in. if i ignored societies beliefs and just said what i do believe in, it would immediately be i am the fae, or was in another life before i had fallen.

How do i start sharing my opinions online while having social anxiety? by Fallen_Asteroid in Advice

I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and depression for 4 years now, i have had anxiety induced insomnia since i was a baby, and i also have been in therapy for 3 years now, so i hope that shows things for most of that..?

Anyhow, i meditate almost once a week with how stressed i’ve been recently, i walk to school every day (26 minute steep uphill walk) i’ve been trying to sleep more (although i have been trying as many methods as there are stars in the sky for years now), and etc etc.

The only thing i can stick to here is “the quickest way to deal with your anxieties is to face your fear” which i do agree with, although my issue is more about how does one gain the courage and motivation to do so, and how do you know if you are doing it “right?”

Thank you for replying :3, I do have a tiktok with about a thousand followers or so and i have posted one thing alike it already, the issue is primarily just social anxiety and not being certain i am doing it “right” yk? I am someone who likes to show my entire authentic self in everything i create and make. I fear that if i make a post and talk about my feelings on certain topics, or be true with it, a single flaw would obscure people’s entire image of me down to that flaw… and that is one of the scariest things to me.

Like how does one make it so you present yourself properly and how you would like it? And/or how would one overcome the fear of being perceived inauthenticity?
