I only heard of fictionkin a day ago but I cant stop thinking about it. Theres a character in a show I watch that I connect with on a personal level so much so its almost scary. I don’t think I am or ever was this person but identifying with/as them makes me feel so comfortable and validated. Is this fictionkin or is it just something entirely different? It might be worth adding that I have a dissociation disorder and I’m worried this is just a coping mechanism that my mind made up. Thanks!

I figured somebody who has been in the ‘kin community’ for so long would be the perfect person to ask about this! I understand that everyone’s experience is different, but how do you know if you’re kin…? For example, I feel a very strong and personal bond/relation towards Achilles (Greek mythology) and saying I simply enjoy his stories or that he’s my favorite seems like a major understatement. This is also the case with a few other characters.. could I be fiction-kin? Sorry if this is stupid!

Not stupid questions! Here’s some info that should help you. http://fromfiction.tumblr.com/Experience http://fromfiction.tumblr.com/howtoknow

Since you’re a kin who’s on the web field, how would you perceive the possibility of a site that serves as a database to search for other alterhumans? With search by category as a main feature. I’ve been simmering on the idea for a while, and I wanna know how out-there it is, since I’m only starting on databank studies.

Its been tried. Its never stuck. Partially because no one with the programming/database knowhow has had a go at it.

shadowfae: Anyway, as someone who almost cried upon discovering the word ‘exotrauma’, don’t tell me being fictionkind is a joke or a roleplay or a coping…

Is it reasonable to be kin but not associate with other fictionkin? I recently figured out I’m kin after a few months of questioning and while being in this community I just really don’t like it. There’s so much arrogance, negativity, and grilling of others. The one place I thought I could express myself and share experiences I don’t even feel safe in. This isn’t directed at you just the fictionkind community in general. Sorry this turned into a vent. I’m just tired of having no where to go

I know the feeling, and its perfectly okay not to want to associate or interact in an environment or with people you don’t feel comfortable…
