the therian urge to go outside and just start sprinting away from society and never come back

[eldritchbean-shapeshifter]

A horrific shambling abomination is magically transformed into a human and the story treats this as body horror. It immediately falls over into the dirt because it isn't used to balancing on legs or having bones, It claws at its too-few eyes with too-blunt nails and screams in a voice that is utterly alien to it, the ever-present singing of the cosmos is silenced as its myriad senses dull to nothing.

And all of this is made worse by these things, these hideous things that have warped its form to match their own, telling it in condescending tones that they have saved it. That they are the perfect beings, the default beings, and that surely all creatures must long for their shape. That this is better than being what it was before.

how do other non/alterhumans feel about keeping pets?

As a creature who's alterhumanity is less "i am literally X" and more "I am mostly human but i have huge disconnect between my internal and external self and my internal self isn't strictly human / i know i'm human but because of my neurodivergence i relate more to X than other humans and therefore label myself as X in order to explain how i feel internally"

I would like to say:

Those of you who literally are your 'types, and who fully identify as such because you are indeed that being locked in a "human" flesh suit, and also those of you who feel your current physical form is not human at all, you're absolutely awesome.

Physical alterhumans and others who have different and even opposite experiences to mine are COOL and AWESOME and just because my experience is more often talked about than yours doesn't mean its the "norm" or "correct" way to be alterhuman.

Anyway, this is to say that anyone who is alterhuman is cool and great and your experience is a valid use of the term alterhuman no matter what. Shout out to alterhumans/nonhumans/etc.

physical nonhumanity is not just OK , just acceptable , just valid or otherwise - physical nonhumanity is , honestly , as profound and sacred as other expressions of nonhumanity .

regardless of origin , regardless of reasons , any of that . everyone have rich lives , rich stories to tell about those lives , and that is so very wonderful !

Territorial Insticts + alterhumanity

i think a lot of alterhuman folks experience territorial instincts in ways that don’t always get talked about. especially if your identity includes predatory, wild, or socially protective species, such as canids, felines, dragons, etc. some of us might feel a deep need to claim space. not in a metaphorical way, but like. this is mine. this is my room, my den, my person, my pack. this is my corner of the internet. don’t touch it. don’t look at it too long. i’ll bite.

and it’s not always aggressive, it can be protective, affectionate. we make a space safe for the people we care about. we guard it. we watch.

for some of us it’s instinctual. for some it’s tied up in trauma, being displaced, growing up in unsafe environments, feeling like we never had a space that was truly ours. alterhumanity can make that ache sharper, more specific.

i guard things. food, objects, spaces, people. it’s not symbolic, it’s instinct. it’s like something clicks in my brain and suddenly whatever it is becomes mine. not in a selfish way, but in a protective, possessive, defensive kind of way. like: this is important. this is sacred. this is part of my territory. don’t touch it. don’t fuck with it. don’t even get too close unless you’re trusted.

sometimes it’s my room. sometimes it’s a person i love. sometimes it’s a hoodie i’ve worn every day for two weeks. sometimes it’s leftover food in the fridge that my brain has decided i’ll starve without. sometimes it’s not even rational, it’s instinctual. animal. primal.

it makes so much sense to me through the lens of psychological therianthropy, the creature in me doesn’t separate emotional connection from territorial instinct. if i love you, i’ll guard you. if something is mine, it’s not just an object, it’s part of my den. part of my hoard. part of myself.

and it’s also tangled up with my bpd [ suspected ], fear of abandonment, attachment issues, identity instability. my territory gives me shape. it tells me who i am. if someone crosses into it without permission, it doesn’t just feel like a boundary violation, it feels like a threat to my existence. it feels like my identity is bleeding. it feels like i’m going to lose something i can’t replace.

territoriality can be violent, but it can also be soft. i’ll sit by the door while you sleep. i’ll remember exactly how you take your tea. i’ll patch up your jacket and fold it so it smells like you again. i’ll bark at anything that looks at you wrong.

for me, being alterhuman means having instincts i can’t always explain, but i feel them in my bones. and territoriality is one of the loudest ones. it’s not always easy to live with, but it makes me who i am.

I know I could get attacked for this, but I'll respond anyway. I don't want to feel like I have to hide my beliefs for fear of being canceled or something.

For me, my religious beliefs are actually a huge part of my identity.

I believe in one God. That there is only one God. And His plan is for us to become like Him. And not just in action or personality etc. He wants us to truly become like Him.

My feelings as an Eldritch Being are not caused by this, but it does offer some insight. By becoming like Him, my potential will be fulfilled. I will leave this mortal, human shell, and finally become who and what I truly am. I am His child, and He will help me become my truest self.

Some people have asked me how I still believe in my religion AND identify as an Eldritch Shapeshifter at the same time. My answer? One is not separate from the other. One is not caused by the other, and one does not negatively impact the other. My identity and my beliefs go hand in hand. They balance each other, and they work together.

My love for God is stronger than any mortal thing. And I 100% believe and know that He loves and accepts and cherishes every single part of me, including my eldritch sides. And that makes me extremely happy.

So, yeah. That's what things are like for me. I hope this helps! And I would love to hear others' thoughts and perspectives as well. I love learning about different beliefs and experiences and stuff :3

question for divinekin/eldritchkin/deitykin/etc.: how could someone view their own divinity in the context of religion where there is only 1 god, or in the context of atheism? could someone who believes in only 1 god, or in no gods at all, still be divinekin or eldritchkin?

"what do you mean your body's a bats body, you're delusional and still in a human body"

I identify as a man, even tho my body is female, when I look in the mirror I see a man, because I am a man.

A lot of trans people see it this way.

I feel the same way about my non-human identities.

I identify as a bat, even tho my body is human, when I look in the mirror I see a bat, because I am a bat.

With the major increase in young children joining the alterhuman community there’s been a major repression in any and all NSFW topics, as well as the immediate shutting down of anything that can be mildly construed as NSFW in the slightest. Like the therian packer “situation” (shoutout to CyrusBarks) so many people (specifically 13 year olds on TikTok) were kicking up such a fuss about it. I’ve had to explain SO MANY TIMES how wanting to have/be something ≠ attraction to that thing. And it’s just really disappointing to me because as an identity, alterhumanity bleeds into every aspect of a person’s life, INCLUDING their sex life, and it’s a shame that we’re just not allowed to talk about that for fear of being painted as a “zoophile”

DING DING DING DING‼️

Reminder!:

Not all Alterhumans are nonhuman

Not all Alterhumans are fully nonhuman

Some Alterhumans are partially nonhuman

Some Alterhumans are human

Otherheartedness is a deep rooted identity, just as otherkinity is

Otherlinks are valid

P-shifters, biological Therians and delusional Therians are valid

Therianthropy is the experience of identifying as an animal in ANY way

Alterhumanity is an umbrella term for all beings who aren't fully human in any way

Alterhumanity isn't just Therians, otherkins and otherhearteds

Therianthropy is not masks and tails and quadrobics

Edit: [the label otherpaw isn't actually harmful]

Quadrobics does not make you a therian

Some nonhumans don't like the label therian

Physical Therians and biological Therians do not make the community look bad

Alot 'therians' on yt and TikTok are just misinformed kids who do not deserve hate for a mistake

YOUR EXPERIENCE IS VALID‼️
