Ouch, that sounds like its very confusing, and I’m sorry that you feel so negatively about your situation. I can’t tell you how ‘valid’ or not…
Thanks for sharing, professor. ^^ It certainly doesn’t sound like a coincidence to me either.
It depends on what you mean by ‘kin senses’. If you mean can kin sense things that other people can not– it depends on the kin.…
I absolutely have. The first one who comes to mind is someone who told me their kintype was from a youtube ‘abridged series’, aka, a joke…
jeshire-katt: fromfiction: Firstly, I can’t tell you if you’re kin or not, only you can do that. However, if you’re not experiencing any homesickness, memories,…
This doesn’t seem that odd to me, anon. I think a lot of people who have multiple kintypes can follow a sort of ‘throughline’ of similarity…
It doesn’t always hit everyone right away, sometimes it takes a while. Sometimes (rarely) kin never get a strong sense of familiarity with their universe,…
Not necessarily. Personally, I consider most different universe versions of a person different people soul-wise. For instance I don’t think I share a soul with…
Firstly, I can’t tell you if you’re kin or not, only you can do that. However, if you’re not experiencing any homesickness, memories, image/species dysphoria,…
Not if the person that someone is claiming to be is alive currently in this universe.
Magic is part of my experience of the world, and I experience myself as inherently and fundamentally magical.
KIN-ADJACENT EXPERIENCES (original post) I’m reposting this because it was originally posted before I heard the term alterhuman, and I think it belongs in that sphere.…

Here’s the biggest callout post about them: http://senjougahara13.tumblr.com/post/109630290999/calling-out-kitsunyxizuru EDIT 5/9/17: post is no longer there. Here is an arcgive version https://archive.is/MYpVu
Hey again, anon. I understand your anxiety about that, trust me. As someone who’s had some of this type of hate directed at me, I…
You’re just as legitimate as ever, anon. People definitely receive memories in different ways and experience them in different intensities. (Though if you have frequent…
Nope, not at all, anon. While there are lots (perhaps a majority, though no formal poll exists) of spiritual/reincarnation based fictionkin, there are also plenty…
Its absolutely okay, anon ^^ For some people body stuff is not as big of a deal as for other people. Some people experience heavy…
In multiverse theory its possible yes. I guess in psychological kinity it could technically be possible too, however. Its also a really big fucking taboo,…
The typical term for this is “questioning”, anon. As in “I’m questioning Xkin”, until you’re more sure of yourself.
I totally feel you, anon. I’ve historically had a very hard time engaging with this world myself.
Hey anon, I lost my arm (and my eye) in canon too (and in my memories). What about it is making you feel invalid? Just…
It sounds like it could fall within psychological kin to me, though I’m by no means an expert.
tall-dark-and-scaly: Hello! If you’re reading this, you’re probably in the otherkin tag or on an otherkin blog. Assuming you are otherkin, please feel free to…
cro-cute-a: Therianthropy isn’t an acquired trait. It isn’t something you can see and go ‘oh I really want to be that, therefore I am.’ It’s totally…

the-zodiac-griller: Ok, so something I’ve noticed with fictionkin. A whole shitton of you all identify as human characters. I’ve known an Edward Elric kin, there’s…
Hey anon, I’m happy to help. Since you don’t consider yourself to BE this character, then the connection you’re looking to describe wouldn’t be called…
imyonqsoo: freedommust22: I feel mostly fine now… I think I just got triggered a bit after seeing various otherkin haters on YouTube (I didn’t know…
cro-cute-a: I have seen a few posts on Tumblr asking about the sensation of phantom limbs, and how to know if they are legitimate or…

Copinglink is the term developed within the kin community to describe the experience of creating/assuming a fictional identity as a coping mechanism. There are lots…
The “literally me” people are generally in one of three camps meaning ‘literally me’ metaphorically as in “we share so many traits we might as well be…
Depends entirely on the person, and their attitude towards being kin and how they see themselves. Generally speaking the larger the number of kintypes someone…
@banditkinsupportnetwork is a troll/parody account and legit kin should not bother interacting with them.
Recommending people block @superretardedfaggot for any number of reasons, but specifically he has been trolling and harassing otherkin community members recently and making a nuisance…
