soyonscruels: i just don’t think it’s helpful to be ‘accepting’ of otherkin because if nothing else it doesn’t help them because feeling that way isn’t healthy or ‘normal’ and shouldn’t be positively reinforced because regardless of whether you really believe it or are doing it for attention you probably need intervention colluding in people’s delusions isn’t helping them Thanks for your charity.

This is funny. Saying a non-human identity is, by default, ‘not normal’ and 'unhealthy’ is like saying having a different gender identity is unhealthy and abnormal. What I’d really like is for the OP to define 'normal’…because, from where I sit, 'normal’ is a setting on the washing machine and nothing more. Also, a delusion is a belief that one holds even when presented with evidence to the contrary. A non-human identity is not a delusion unless one either believes they are physically non-human or that they can physically shape shift. There is no evidence that says non-human identities are impossible…so, therefore, a non-human identity is not a delusion.

You know, science (especially psychology) actually backs non-human identities in that it can explain everything that we experience to be a real thing and not a mental illness. Try Google…it’s magical.

I’m getting very tired of people using the ’d word’ who don’t actually understand what it means. The OP being an ass on Tumblr, and people like them, are what isn’t helping anyone. Supporting someone’s identity is what helps people…and accepting 'non mainstream identities’ is called being a 'free thinker,’ 'progressive,’ 'open minded,’ etc.
