°• Some wingkin things you can do to fill the void of your missing wings •°

-Drape a heavy blanket over your shoulders, it feels like the weight of wings

-Run, run fast, run down a hill

-Look in the mirror and take some time to try and feel your wings (imagine the weight, the color, the position, etc)

-Sleep shirtless, or wear a tank top

-Swings! Swings are your best friend if you wanna feel like you're flying

It's not a lot but I hope I helped a few people out!

Hi! Can you do a self care tip thing for me? Im angel kin!! (Psychological wise)

Of course!

angelic self care tips:

Meditate! Let yourself sit and just be at peace in the moment.

Invest in a shimmery bath bomb and take a luxurious bath. For some reason I associate angels with shiny things that smell nice????

Listen to music that makes you feel angelic (Gregorian chants come to mind, but really just any music that resonates with your kintype)

Regardless of your gender, some sort of highlighter/body shimmer can give you a sort of heavenly glow :)

Let yourself bask in the sunshine! It's good for you and the warmth can be comforting. Maybe imagine stretching out your wings

Wrap yourself in a blanket like a cocoon! I've noticed some winged kintypes doing stuff like that to simulate being engulfed in their wings.

If you want more added on, let me know!

dear new or questioning systems

one very very important thing, that you absolutely must keep in mind.   TAKE YOUR TIME!! take your time :) whether you’ve just been diagnosed or you have a sneaking suspicion or whatever it may be, take a breather. these things dont happen overnight. they never do. get off system-blr first of all, theres definitely lots of resources sure, but it is not worth trying to navigate the absolute mess that it is. theres so much misinformation that can be terrible for you if you’re new to everything. come back later when you feel like you could confidently debunk stuff. and even then, it might not even be too important.

 you dont need to figure out each and every one of your alters/headmates front to back the same night, or even that same month. or year. you dont need to be on guard trying to catch yourself switching 24/7 in order to prove its real. you dont need an intricate fully formed headspace. you dont need to remember every detail of your traumas down to the second. hell, you dont even need to be 100% confident what disorder it is. you dont need to have it all figured out. it can wait. dont rush.

do. not. rush.

My experience being wrong about multiplicity

Hi. For a year and a few months more, I believed I was a system. Why did I believe this, and what are some reasons I did, as well as how I realized I was wrong? Why I thought I was a system Around September of 2021, I labeled myself as an endogenic median system. Upon finding the system label, I did nowhere near enough research before labeling myself as one. It felt like the non-traumagenic community didn't care; if you thought you were a system, you were one! If you didn't, you weren't. It felt black and white. Eventually, I realised I had trauma I was unaware of, and switched to the label traumagenic. I was no longer median, either. In less than a year, I had 100+ "alters", almost all "fictives". While this can happen, I don't believe I was nearly as stressed as I would have needed to be, and just.. didn't feel right. Other factors that lead me into the belief I have multiple other disorders. Specifically, I suspect I have BPD, and the dissociation, mood swings, sense of emptiness, and identity issues impacted me a lot. I mistook these symptoms for OSDD-1. I subconsciously started sectioning off parts of my identity, and felt more and more separate- hence the switch from median to multiple. I am also fictionkin and polymorph otherkin. Around 20 of my "fictives" ended up being kins. I am also, to put it simply, lonely. I never feel like I fit in. In the system community, sometimes I DID feel like I fit in. When I didn't, someone else was "chilling in cofront". A lot of them were like imaginary friends to make me feel less alone. Those ones don't even feel like a part of me, but they're not separate people, either. They're just.. figments of my own imagination. To be honest, I've felt much lonelier upon learning I am a singlet. How I realized I was wrong Honestly, it was somewhat obvious. Many of my "headmates" felt like they were a part of me, and if we had different bodies, it wouldn't be the same- because they were me. I also subconsciously started to copy symptoms I didn't have, I switched as I wanted, I was fictive heavy- which can happen, but it's rarer than people realise. My trauma was not severe or repetitive. I could go on. A big problem in the system community is the "everyone is valid" mentality; I believe MUCH more research should be done before labeling as a system, and not enough people talk about it. Another issue is that not a lot of people talk about being wrong, and personally, I was terrified to tell people I was wrong. It's fucking difficult. There's too much "you're valid! you're valid! you're valid!" and not enough "hey, it's okay if you're wrong!". When I panicked around the time I realized I was wrong (and denied it for weeks), I never received an "it's okay if you're wrong". All I got was "hey, calm down, you ARE a system". I think the community has a lot to fix. This has fucked up my dissociation issues and identity problems worse than they were before. I wish I had realized I was a singlet sooner or never jumped into this label. Not all of these mean you're a singlet, but if you relate to this, please be open to the idea of being wrong. Thanks for reading this. Please share this- my goal with it is to help others. Have a good day/night, drink some water, and know that it's okay to be wrong. ☆

Question for otherkin, therians, alterhumans, and everyone who fits under a similar umbrella- who also experience phantom limbs.

What do your phantom limbs feel like to you?

I recently found a good analogy for mine that I'd like to share :3 The other day I was wearing large dangling earrings and I could feel their weight on my ears. When I turned my head sharply, they'd bump my neck and when I'd jump or bounce I'd feel them tug my earlobes. The next day, I didn't wear my earrings, but I could still feel the weight of them on my ears. I even turned my head slower so that they wouldn't bump my neck before remembering I wasn't wearing my big earrings.

Phantom limbs feel the same way the earrings did. I can feel that they're presence like they're apart of my body. And will even accommodate space for them before realizing they're not physically there. Most often times I can also picture them in my mind. I wonder how similar other's experiences are or how they differ. If you feel like sharing then please do!

fun tip for eldritchkin/folks with similar kintypes who struggle with selfcare (ESPECIALLY those who care more abt others than themselves): frame it as a n33d of your 'vessel'. a couple examples i use for myself:

• the vessel n33ds to rest

• My Silly Little Flesh Suit Requires Sustenance Please And Thanks

hi! im new to the whole otherkin/fictionkin community, but i know its where i belong. a lot of my new friends here already have memories and im desperate to see who i was in my past life qwq. do you have any tips on finding memories?

Lately I’ve been finding that listening to music that I associate with my kin while I take showers really helps! Showers tend to be a pretty easy place to think about things. I also think reading fics and things like that kind get the gears going, too.  As always, others may feel free to offer any kind advice in replies to this post! I’ve also heard that meditation helps. -Mod Jonas
