otherkin a real thing or psychiatric disorder?
« on: January 22, 2012, 07:18:23 PM »
So would you say that otherkin theian ect is a real thing in that these people are having genuine spiritual experiences or would you say they are haveing some sort of psychotic break mabye some species dysphoria?
 
I concider myself to be not fully human in spirit.
 
IMO otherkin ect is just to new mabye in like a couple of hundred years if it lasts the test of time then we could call it a spiritual thing but untill then um i lean more twords the mental disorder type thing.
 
Thoughts?
 
Thanks

Nothing I say will be viewed with much joy by therians.


So I will limit myself to saying that you may be animal in spirit, you are still human.

The idea of being otherkin or a therian is a belief, not a psychosis. It is your choice to believe if you think the sensation is real or not.

Members of the otherkin and therian subcultures are not properly respected in view in this thread. Because of the method of otherkin comparison, this thread is being locked to prevent hostility.
