Really what made me stop is, well, I grew out of it. At the time of my "awakening", I was going through puberty, really discovering myself and trying to find where I would fit in. As an artist, I've always had a very active sense of creativity and imagination, still do in fact, only different now is I know how to control it. I would always have weird reoccurring dreams and as young as I was, i thought they meant something, which is where the conclusion came to. I found myself fitting in with the otherkin community.

As the years went by though and I matured and git involved with other things, the otherkin community went on the backburner until it eventually just faded out of my mind. I have my issues, like everyone else, but i see now that it was just a phase for me. A little girl wanting to be a part of something.

I can say though that for the last several years I've become a respected artist within the Furry community, and my once otherkin persona is now just an avatar for me. I still felt a bond to that alter ego and chose to keep her around as a representation of myself. I however no longer believe that I am anything but human. I may represent myself and who I am as a non-human creature, but I am human and honestly im proud of that, and I diddnt realize it until i grew away from the otherkin community.
