Oh I love the woman I'm becoming. So present, tender, capable, self-compassionate, inspired and inspiring, committed to growing and healing. I am at a stage where I regularly express so much admiration and gratitude for the fact that I am who I am. And I love knowing that I both am and am becoming. It keeps me grounded in the present moment while also very engaged in and enthralled by my process of evolving. I know full well that throughout this journey I have determined to be tender with myself. I have made love my highest goal and so I return to it always. This is what has allowed me to feel at home with myself again and I love that for me.
This is my journey if anyone’s interested (its kinda long to read):
For me, it’s a mix of multiple factors. I’ve always acted kinda different from my schoolmates (random noises, unconsciously doing animalistic things) so I thought I was just a weirdo, and that was fine. It wasn’t until a couple years later that I heard about therians for the first time at school. People where less then friendly when they where talking about them though (and they didn’t seem to actually know what a therian was, they just assumed it was a furry(not that furries are bad!)) Anyways, I went home and did a lot of research, and some of the things I read just started to click! I also watched Therian Territory videos and that helped too. I started a journal because I knew I might just be getting exited over nothing, I still wasn’t sure if I was a therian or not. After about another year, the whole idea had kinda faded into the background, but I still questioned every once and a while. But after I kept having shifts and noticing them, I re-started my journal and eventually came to the conclusion that I was a therian. That was pretty much my awakening; it felt great! I did more research to see if I had a specific theriotype/s and knew by instinct that I was a dessert animal (though I’ve always loved forests, but oh well) I did lots of searching and learned about lots of animals. I thought maybe at first I was a rodent, and stuck with that for a while. but a few months later I had a dream shift of snuggling up with foxes. I immediately started doing research again and confirmed after another month of questioning that I was a Corsac Fox. It felt so much more natural then when I thought I was a gerbil, and ever sense it’s been easier to connect with my theriotype (I’m still questioning if I might be a rondent though because something made me believe before) Fox shifts are fun! And my mom has been supportive of me ever sense I told her even though she doesn’t understand. I go outside regularly to try to connect with my theriotype and hope that one day I’ll meet other therians!
I hope you’re journeys where just as good, and that you found acceptance. I hope you’re happy being yourself. Comment your Alterhuman journey if you’re comfortable, I’d love to hear about it! And remember; everyone has different experiences and journeys, awakening could take years or days, but all Alterhumans and therians are beautiful!!!
Also pls reblog so we can get as meany answers as possible, thanx!
’Tis I. I am here just silently lurking on tumblr to check notifications every few days.
those of you who have been here a while will know that I have clinically diagnosed severe (religious) OCD.
Some excellent news is that I am making some very small baby steps in therapy. It’s the first time I’ve really tried to fight back, and I’m gaining a little (maybe a few millimeters) of ground.
if you feel so inclined, I’d love some prayer for my therapy journey—that I can become stronger.
@collegecuckcakev3 I thought you would like to know that I had a meal with other week with mommy and my parents, and during the meal I was wearing my Lush.
Life’s journey is never a strait continuous line it has its peaks and valleys. Looking forward to finally being capable of climbing another peak after being in a valley for too long.
i've seen people suggest making a list to sort of keep yourself accountable and really put the law to the test, so i'm going to try it! i'll do a check-in next sunday with you all and give you an update on what i've ticked off so far (•ө•)♡
I'm going to cry, Jews are so generous with taking care of each other
I'm having an extremely tough time financially and I get 90% of my food from food banks and a lot of that food contains chametz and/or kitniyot. I asked in a Jewish fb group if pikuach nefesh applies to not being able to afford kosher-for-Pesach food, and one of the members messaged me privately to offer a little money so I could get myself some food for Pesach. I'll at least have enough to get matzah and some produce and meat so I can avoid chametz for some of the holiday!
I am feeling so blessed and overwhelmed with the generosity of others 😭💕✡
I was pretty excited about AI when ChatGPT 3 dropped and i used it as another tool to increase productivity and my learning. Everything was going well until ChatGPT 4 dropped and I panicked so hard and started overthinking everything: I was mentally drained for two days, I didn’t code or do anything. I was just reading tweets from senior devs saying
“Junior Devs roles won’t be needed with the advancement in AI”
“If AI continues at this pace of advancement, so many jobs will be taken”
like can you fucking chill?🙄😒 I just got my life together and started learning JS, and this is not encouraging. Well, I decided to do research and I read some positive and realistic takes from other optimistic devs and I even listened to a really long podcast from the CEO of OpenAi to fully understand what I am worried about and to make my own decision
SPOTIFY LINK TO THE PODCAST
Anyway, I’m still scared but I’ll still learn how to code because whatever is happening is out of my control and learning to code is something I can control and do and that’s what I’m going to do. Have a nice day ✌️
