1/2 I very conflicted. I’ve been doubting this entire identity lately. When I battle my doubts, am I just denying the truth? Do I fabricate my kinfeels and memories to fit into this identity? Am I just using to cope, to fill the empty void in my identity depression left there? Am I just doing this to belong, because I don’t belong anywhere else? Then there’s a whole other series of “what-ifs.” I want to say I’m being too hard on myself, that this is truly where my heart lies and I have figured

2/3 myself out.But I also want to say I’m deluded and crazy, that this is just a fun game my brain put together for me,…

hello! this may seem like a silly question but i was wondering if its okay to have really strong emotional reactions to your canon and memories and such? like i tell myself to “get over it, that life is over” but i sometimes think of something that happened in canon or one of my memories. or think about people i loved. and occasionally i’ll just break down crying because of canonsickness. i guess i’m just looking for validation that its ok to feel that way at times? do you ever experience this?

Anon, my friend, this is completely normal and okay. I, and a lot of people, get upset about things that happen in canon, and memories,…

Do you think it’s possible for a fictive consciousness in one system to jump to another system? And still have the ability to jump back? I’m a gateway system and I have a friend who is too. We have a few consciousnesses who have the ability to do that, but just between us. I have a consciousness who says he has the ability to go between me and his actor. I believe him, I’m just curious if this has happened with anybody else.

Yes, I believe this. It used to happen with me and my best friend back in the day, though our headspaces are more closed off…

So, I just sort of started wondering if I’m kin with a certain character. I didn’t know what that was until a few days ago when I saw a post about it and I started to wonder about a character that immediately became familiar to me. After reading the post, I thought about it a bit and I started thinking things like, “Yeah, I do that, too….” I have, however, had a fickin experience where I immediately saw myself in a different character, so I’m not as sure about this character. Can you help me?

What should I do if I find out someone in the kin community is faking? I have evidence that a rather popular fictionkin in the Homestuck community is lying about being kin, but I don’t know if I should expose them or not. It seems kind of like a dick move to start that kind of drama… but isn’t it also a dick move to not inform the people they’re screwing with? They’re not SERIOUSLY hurting anyone, but still.

I have mixed feelings about this, anon. I suppose my question is this. How do you know they’re faking? If you have proof/screenshots of them…

Hi! A kinype I had might actually be a fiction-hearted connection after questioning a little bit. But there are still things that kinda support it being a past life? Like, why I was always scared of this or that, I predicted a few big events in the book, the universe feels “real” to me, etc. But I feel my actual connection to the character might be leaning more towards hearted?

Only you can decide how to define your internal experience, anon. If you think it feels more fiction-hearted than fictionkin, that’s up to you. Nothing…

I not sure about whether or not I’m otherkin anymore. I truly feel I’m not human and I don’t belong here, but I can’t help but question my faith in this. Like what I experience isn’t enough and my beliefs are just made up and I’m delusional, maybe it makes more sense if I’m delusional. I don’t know whether I’m right or wrong and it’s just frustrating. Maybe it would’ve been better if I never discovered otherkin at all, and my feelings of being out of place never had an explanation.

These feelings are really understandable. Sometimes its better not to focus on labels, and focus more on how you feel. Whether your experiences are ‘real’ or…
