Probably because it's still kind of dressing up and costuming to them, like dressing up as a pirate or a princess or such. And well, they play and have lots of imagination, while older kids want to fit in, be popular,.. and then yeh :/ So I experienced the same!
So I can wiggle my ears and you know when dogs have like "woah" expression and their ears like go back a bit. Everytime I have the woah expression on my face while I'm in character, my ears move a bit but it doesn't really make a difference to other people 😂😂
Same. Sometimes I'll just look at people and wiggle my ears. I have a surprising amount of control on the movement of muscles on my head so my human ears will move when my dog ears move. People tell me I look like a dumb ass alot when I wiggle my ears but i cant control it anymore
If my dog annoys me I growl. They always back away when I growl. They know what it means. They consider me another dog because I’m alway playing with him.
I’m more of a submissive type I feel, so when other dogs bark at me, I make myself smaller and they end up, like, growling or raising their tails like a real pack hierarchy!
@@rahhhhh111 same wit mine! we lay on the floor and wrestle. i accidentally bit him one time cuz he wouldnt let my hand go! didnt hurt him but he was like, "what the heck?"
I can relate to most of these things so well, especially wanting to walk up a hill quadrupedal or making animal sounds when being jumpscared. Once at work I saw a big spider walking on my hand and I hissed like a reptile. Luckily whenever that happens the people around me thought that I was sneezing and answered "bless you!". XD PS: I really appreciate that comments are active on this video! Sadly there is a lot of jerks out there who have no understanding for therians and feel the need to call them names and such under videos.
so this comment was 2 YEARS ago, but a stink bug beetle thing was on my sink, and i went to flick it but it grabbed onto my finger and I yelped and flinged it so lound my sister asked if i got shot (as a joke)
I hope they'll never judge and bully u again. No one should deserve that kind of treatment. Thank you so much for your kind words. But you should be proud of yourself. That you are you and you dare to be yourself. That you stand here, today. I am proud of you.
Yeah me too, my sister bullied me because i belivie that i was wolf in my previous life, and i act like wolf, and when i'm with my aunt's dog, i just act like a wolf
I’m sorry but for some reason, the mental image and sounds of this in my head are making me laugh. Idk barn owl screeches are funny to me for some reason.
I’m so glad you mentioned hills, I am a huge nature person and love climbing and one of the things I like is to go up and down steep things and even when I’m playing in a ditch by my house and climbing out I always tend to get lower and lower until I touch the grass his also happens with long stairsets and funny story I did that on a field trip twice (one in the STATE CAPITIAL and the other in a college about engeneering)
Oh yay! I'm not the only one! :D Last week I hissed at my teacher and this weekend at a family member of my mate :s I'm afraid of coming of as crazy or getting in trouble in school haha. Cuz hissing = agression. Many think.
I experience the jump scare problem if I get really nervous thinking someone is around that might be a threat, I will bark and growl lol and the movement one for sure, I'm always like pet me lol
Yeh I've noticed how I lately growl a bit more. But I switch between hissing and growling quiet a lot when being jumpscared xD Thanks for sharing me your story!
@@fanoos3373 exactly lol like I'll practise running on all fours and jumping but not because I want to be a horse just because I want to learn it. It's kind of creepy seeing people saying I like my head to be stroked and stuff like umm ok
A problem i had was that i showed my teeth to my little sisters when they made me angry, then my little sisters learned to show teeth when they get angry and its getting annoying XD
Ahh goodness #4, the physical limitations, it drives me insane! With a Feline theriotype, I don’t have the flexibility to arch, the agility to jump, or the double-jointedness to get in a pre-pounce position. It’s so unsatisfying when you just want to act instinctively but can’t! It’s like having an itch in your shoe, you can’t scratch it! XD
I'm a questioning therian. I know I am one, think I'm a wolfdog, but MIGHT also be a cat? (Polytherian maybe..) and i LOVE pouncing. Try standing on your tiptoes when you walk. I have for maybe a year now, and it really helps for pouncing and making me feel more animal-like. As in, thigh being the big part of an animal's leg (the top), the bottom half of your leg as the actual leg, your foot being the bent part, and your toes as your paws. I walk on my tiptoes allll the time now. Just pretend you're wearing heels! It feels much more comfortable now that i have been doing it for awhile.
Mask the Wolf Sorry for the late response! It does feel better when I’m on my toes, it’s a lot more springy! About questioning... theriotypes can be hard to figure out! All I knew was I was a quadruped, I had a hunter instinct, and the most of phantom limbs I got were ears... so not a lot of clues. I used to think I was a coyote, but it wasn’t quite right. The clue I used to figure out I was a lynx was how I never howled or barked. I had a predisposition towards growling and yelping. I wish you luck, if you haven’t found your theriotype already!
I found out I was Therian a year ago when I realized I would feel myself shift in a way. I would feel like my ears flattened or raised up based on my emotions and I was oddly attracted to hunting or trying to catch things.
Zachary Trudell It's a really severe problem for me :/ as I really Constantly chew my lips. To the point I've timed and the longest I've been able Not to chew was only 4 hours. It's truely destroying. I hope your lip chewing isn't too bad and that you can handle it. I'm sorry to hear you experience it :/ tho I'm glad to know that I'm not alone.
I chew my choker (I use my choker as a collar) and I chew on pencils,my nails,my lips,my clothes,my hair,my jacket string,and I defend myself by biting people when they're close or choking me.
Yeh ferrets (the almighty catsnakes ;p ) are Very flexible animals! Therian amino is an app that's becoming more and more popular. You only have to download 1 app, called "Amino" to your phone (or via a converter like bluestacks, on your pc) and you can acces hunderds, no.. thousands! of social platforms. For every fandom or interest. There are cat animos, pet animos, LGBT+ animos, homestuck animos, undertale aminos, anime animos, even aminos for mental support etc. An amino is kind of a small 'facebook' but then specificly and personalized for one certain theme, like undertail, furry or therian in this case. So download "amino" on your app, and search in this app for "therian amino" (the 'best' one should be the one on the top of your list in this case) , join the amino and you can from there make blogs, ask questins, discuss, chat with people in public or private chats, make quizes, etc etc. It's a very nice place! And you can find me there under the name "PD PinkDolphin" WOOF! PD
I find it very hard to stop biting as it has been an automatic protect-mechanism since a young age and a 'general communication tool' I use in communicating. I want attention of my boyfriend? Give him a nom. Want that annoying friend to shut up? Bite harder in the neck or shoulder etc etc. Sadly it does get in trouble sometimes however. But I can't seem to get rid of it.
Xariyah Mack actually, I got this one person at school (a friend) and I claw at him as well if he's irritating! Hha I hope it won't get you in trouble however! :s
I do the chewing thing. In year one (about 5 years old) up til now I chewed pencils all the time. It would be completely destroyed. One time when I was like 6 they gave us our own pencils to avoid chewing but mine was terrible at the end of the week. I also had a problem with biting my nails, yes, I have sensory processing disorder and asburgers, which is probably a part of it but I have found that it might be linked to my theriotype. I'm getting a wolf tail for my birthday, and I also connect to wolves so I suspected to be a husky but I'm kinda the opposite of them. It could be a wolf dog, I have no idea but it's some sort of dog. Thank you PD for helping me and inspiring me as a therian! 🐺🐕
Dead INSIDE hha not exactly :3 it's a "Team Cyber" tshirt with my fursona on, Cyber. He actually is a cat and was based off on warriorcats. He started off as a warrior OC and then slowly rised up to become a fursone.
Yeh probably as Cyber is based of on warriorcats and also has such a collar hha :') I'm actually glad it makes you think of warriorcats! And thank you!
3:35 Oh thats so weird! For years I've always loved imagining I had a tail or even ears, and I'd imagine wagging it, or how it would move or sit when I did certain things.
Not sure if i'm therian or not. I found out later in life I have all of the tendencies of a fox. The furry community has gone to hell and there are very few good people left in it sadly- as when I wear my tail it can bad assumption material.. I like a solo lifestyle, active mostly at night, I tend to get therian shifts.. rarely however. experiencing short periods where I get instincts.. Insane intuition that effortly helps me outsmart my prey, intelligence that surprises myself even. The world is a weird place, anything's possible! 😎🦊
who knows, you may well be a therian :) okay, the furry fandom and therianthropy are two completely different things. One is a choice, the other is not (to start with). But many therians have been, are or join the furry fandom actually.
(I understand the difference completely*) Anyways I like your vid, you summed up points incredibly nicely and it is much appreciated. Wish I knew other therians I could converse with, Thx for taking the time!
I’m not sure because I identify with these things like having a connection with an animal and phantom limbs like when I was 7 I felt like there was something there but I couldn’t properly feel it and I don’t have a REALLY deep connection with the animal like I identify with those traits and I feel like I’m that animal when I act like it but it’s like not that deep of a connection so idk I’m a furry so it could just be that -v-
My parents aren't supportive about me being a therian. I have tried to explain to them multiple times, but they won't understand. They keep saying it is a childish thing, and it is not real. They won't let me buy therian gear. I will soon buy yarn and make a tail! I have ordered some masks too. I told them they were for a cosplay. I wish I lived in a place with nature. The place I live is full of roads, buildings. My paws have never touched grass. I only have 1 therian friend, but her mother is unsupportive as well ( she hates animals ). I love ur contect and keep up the amaizing work!
hello, coal! i understand your situation, although i have not explicitly told my parents about me being a therian. i am a silver fox, chihuahua, and crow therian. i tooootally relate on the wishing for grass part.. where i live there are lots of streets and sidewalks too. the wildlife walks are far away, and im not old enough to drive there ahaha. i hope you and your other therian friend are happy!! i am not close friends with any other therians near me and that sucks, but at least im in a bunch of discord servers! wish you well, coal the black wolf 🖤 -iso
The biting issue... I've had that as a big issue in the past. I've always been a therian and always strongly expressed my therian-ness. When I was 8-9 in school I bit a girl because she grabbed my arm and it surprised me. I bit her hard too, she bled. The thing is she was my friend! I felt so bad
Me too. My dad brought dead frozen rats home so he can feed them to his lizard and I grabbed the bag and was fighting him for the bag of rats for some reason I just wanted to eat them(I'm starving). Then he let it go and I hid them in the closet(like a dog burying a bone) and ran up and down the hallway on all my fours and was growling at him.
Yeah sometimes i feel like i have ears on the top of my head like an animal and most times i feel like people will know how im feeling just like you with your phantom tail and when im sad i also sometimes whine very lightly but most people dont notice
Hills. They will get the best of you. I enjoy running on all fours down hills, but my biggest problem is why do hills hate me so much? I've fallen like 15 times one Time running on all fours down a hill.
I feel like I can purr when happy and stuff and try to show emotion by it, I love to be pet on the head, I LOVE to curl up, I scratch people and literally make them bleed- I feel like I have ears and also try to show emotion through them, I LOVE chewing on things, I love bells, I LOVE RUNNING UP HILLS ON ALL FOURS, nature is amazing, I have an URGE to go into the woods/forest, I want to see a local therian, I do do quadrobics ( double "do"s were on purpose), I LOVE WATER, I can be jumpscared easily if someone's behind me, I'm also a polytherian/otherkin, my parents don't support therianthropy, so they don't know I am one... Sooo, yeah, ect. I also copied what a cat meowed, and had a whole literal conversation, fun!
music the therian wow Nice to know! :) And ah yeh xD well it might seem violent and all, how I handle him. But he truely doesn't mind or even find it fun! How I turn him around and around and how I play with him hha. XD cute hmmmm. I love the lil boy. Thank you!
Sometimes I use my dogs as an excuse to run around on all fours which is a great excuse for anyone who does quadrobatics but you don't want your family to judge you. when I get into the zone I start using vocals and I don't realize it until my mom taps be saying I'm to loud.
I'm so glad that my videos can help you! :D That really makes my day. And I'm happy that you felt so excited :') Just know that you're amazing haha. Never let people drag you down indeed! I'm proud that you're able to be yourself so carefree :) Keep on being you!
3, I have that toooooooo That biting thing, I have that too I chew on a chew toy because otherwise I'm going insane 8. Yeah, I really want that too 9. SAMEEEEE 11. Yeah, I get that
I DO THE HEAD THING TOO. I have a bestie that knows that I am a therian. when I meet her, instead of say :" hi!" I just put my head in her chest and she pets me, knowing I want it. and when I want to be pet I do the same and she does. she is the best I really love her
I'm new to the Therian community but not with the Otherkin community because i'm also Dragonkin. I recently discover that I'm Otherkin too and I want to learn better about it. Thank you so much for your video, you help me a lot 💗
Glad that I could help! There are also plenty of therian and otherkin forums and websites online (I advice therian-guide for info) where you can learn a lot :)
HELP!!! at my school they call me a ""dog'' and they say stuff like "do u need a leash" "why u wereing a dog collar" "why u wereing that ""thingy"" around your neck" .......if they only knew....
I recommend you actually to not tell them, as this will probably result in them looking up 'therian' on google and ending up with a lot of incorrect definitions and 'cringy videos'. You could link them my channel however or 'therian nation' as a youtube channel. But telling them would probably result in only more bullying which will only hurt more. You could tell them it's fashion as in 'I just like how it looks, dogs wear tshirts too right? It's made to be worn, no one made a law it could only be worn by dogs'. You can tell them it's an advanced chocker or a style like gothic or emo or even 'nature punk' I've recently heard, a gothic-like style but then around nature instead. I highly advice you to ignore as much as possible, as they want a reaction. That's interesting, so if you take that away.. it gets boring after a while. Meanwhile: plz tell your parents and go to the head of the school or a trust person (teacher) on your school. They should know so they can punish the bullies. If you have any proof, show it to them. I wish u the best of luck :s
they did it to me too, this was way before there was a definition for being therian. just ignore the humans. they will likely grow up to have extremely boring lives.
Sad :/ Plz ignore and know that as long as you know who you are, that's all what's important. You are an animal! And you know what animals do? They survive. I wish you the best, and ignore those people indeed, you're stronger than them. @@ChuckE.CheeseGirl
omg on 8:33 in the video when it said they chew on the lips I DO THAT ALL THE TIME AS WELL!!!!! i have been doing that like for my hole life. sometimes someone would be like "bro what happend to your lips"?then i would say"nothing":D
I yelp when I am jumpscared, and I often randomly bite my friends when I'm bored. I do a LOT of things like those described in your video, all the time. I used to think this was just because I was raised with mostly animals and didn't contact other people except for a select few friends and, of course, my parents. But this video has really helped me realise that I'm not just a furry, I'm a therian! Thank you so much for the time an effort you put into making this content
I relate to a lot of these actually, though I may have a different understanding of therianthropy as a "spirituality" than some. I actually dont mind referring to it as a spiritual experience or part of my spirituality. I know logically that my body is not that of my theriotype, so for me all that's left is the essence of who I am, which is both identity and spirituality to me. If I were to boil myself down to my core I would be a wolf, but my core doesnt include my body to me. Identity and the idea of the soul are almost the same thing to me. I think you're right though to be dissatisfied with therianthropy *just* being spiritual though. It's who we are not how we are, if that makes sense. Either way, great video!
Rayn Gibson there is a difference between something being spiritual or something being a spirituality :) ex: it isn’t that my neighbour is religious, that he is a religion. Ex: you cantreat an animal in a human way, but that doesn’t make the animal a human. I never said therians aren’t spiritual or that spiritual therianthropy isn’t a thing. Just therianthropy as a whole, is not defined as a spirituality but rather an (animalistic) experience of a non-human identity. In this experience, we have 2 types: spiritual therians and psychological therians. Spiritual therians think their non-human identity/experiences/internal feeling come from a spiritual cause or explaination. Souls or past lifes by example. Many spiritual therians note that their therianthropy is a huge part of their spirituality and spiritual experiences as a whole. This however doesn’t make therianthropy as a whole a spirituality but rather being experienced in a spiritual way or a core stone of a spirituality in a way. Tho as long as the person is aware it’s not about believing but about experiencing (ex: you can have a past life or soul of an animal but that fact of belief doesn’t make you a therian. The animal experiences such as mindsets or internal animal feeling or phantom limbs are the indicator of being a therian) I don’t mind people calling their therianthropy a spirituality. Even if practically terminology wise it is incorrect. But yeah i got nothing against spiritual therians :3 psychological therians identify due a psychological cause by the way. Like unconcious imprinting, complexity of human mind, unconcious copingmechanism etc.
Haha, welcome back ! xD I haven't made much content in the past years either but I have changed a LOT since then. And grown up a lot. I might return a bit over the summer or after my studies next year :)
I've commented on this video before but that was awhile ago, when I was still kinda new to the community......... so updated rant about how freaking relatable this video is. So I am a dhole and a dolphin (and I am completely sure this time) and I constantly have a phantom tail and sometimes ears......... and I move them a lot as well but no one can see them...... so I'll just stare at someone waiting for them to see my tail but they never do........ also I actually put shampoo in my hand to wash my tail, but um........ ;-; also I have very strong metal shifts sometimes, like you know how sometimes you have a mental shift that is so intense that you cant understand your language and think in instincts instead of words? Yeah I have those about one to 3 times a day and often in school ( because that's where I spend most of my life) and I'm just sitting in the back of the class and my brains just like "what the F**K is going on?" And I just have to sit there and not move until it ends, and God forbid the teacher call on me. Also I play a bit to rough with my friends and my dog, but I usually dont hurt them too bad and I try to be careful. But yeah thanks! (P.s. WHERE MY FELLOW DHOLES AND DOLPHINS AT!?!?) ---Miva Ki the dhole and dolphin
hha that's all fine!! Yeh I sure do! I also think in.. instincts? emotions? instead of words or images when shifted. It's super confusing as I KNOW what I'm thinking, but never can put it in words. I'M A DOLPHIN :p
I'm not a therian, but I do enjoy learning about therians and other types of people society calls 'strange' because it's good for me to understand them so I don't judge. However, I also experience phantom limbs sometimes and it's strange. Namely, I feel animal ears on my head or wings on my back, and it's strange because I kinda feel like they help express emotions when I feel them or I feel like they should be there, but they aren't. I occasionally feel a tail but not usually. Don't think I'm therian, but just something I noticed I also have a problem with. Anyways, I just found your channel but I do love your content already! Hope you have a nice day/night!
I have phantom ears/tail/wings almost constantly and some other stuff, I'm most comfortable labeled as winged neko kin, which is humanoid but with animal features. Nekos can also shift fully into cats when desired so that explains a lot too.....idk just some shared info on my experience for you since you're interested in learning :) Edit: to clarify, a mythical creature, even one that only has features of earthly creatures, is considered otherkin but not therian :)
Phantom limbs : yep. Jump scares : yep. Different body/disphoria : oh ya. Spontanious movements : not the same one, but yep. Chewing : I did bruxism because of that, thanks I discovered chewing collar. Finding other therians : online it's okay, but IRL... I hear my ECHOOOOOOOOOOOO! Take care PD! ~♥~
Iv been therian my whole life had my therian awaking when I was I was ten years old had my first shift in middle school English class felt my tail and ears I'm a proud therian fox .
I get the jumpscare thing way too often tbh, there’s this kid in my class that always touches my shoulder or upper back when I sit in front of him and I jump so easily when he does it. Usually I make a weird high pitched (but thankfully rather quiet) yelping noise. Also I get phantom limbs at school nearly everyday, but I’m in slightly more control of it since my kintype is a shapeshifting yokai.
the point about finding other therians is so true. It feels very weird now seeing therianthropy become so popular on youtube and tiktok, because for all of the years that I've been... aware, I suppose, most of my socialization with other therians was in private Discord servers or other really obscure internet groups I would have to browse for hours to find. I'm kind of not even sure how to approach newer larger therian communities because they feel so different.
All I remember about my Therian is that they were a dog who was running away from someone alongside two other dogs. And one of them had black fur. They were in a very lush area and moss was everywhere. They were then shot in the back, neck or head (idk I just felt a really sharp pain somewhere behind my head). I didn't die when the bullet hit me, I died when I hit the ground. Also I was carrying something either brown or red in my mouth. I only remember this because I have been having a recurring this as a recurring dream and it never changes and during the dream I'm my Therian. So I'm pretty sure I'm a dog Therian which is supported by my Phantom ears and tail. I just don't know what breed of dog or what I looked like yet. (idk why I decided to share this)
Sometimes telling people about something on your mind just gives you a sense of relief, even if the people you tell are strangers on the internet, most of us won't fault you for that. If you want to know what kind of dog you are, you can just do what I did when I was trying to narrow down the search for my specific theriotype (I knew I was a domesticated cat therian but I couldn't figure out my exact breed), I payed special attention to my behaviors, instincts, and the type of environments I liked, then I made a list of different breeds of cats that had the same behaviors as me, after that I just looked at pictures of the different cat breeds that fit my criteria until I came across a picture and suddenly thought "that's me". That's how I found my exact breed, and that might just work for you too.
Hey guys I need help. I wore my tail at school and two kids tugged on my tail (I was eating candy) and I started choking and I started to cry it was scary
Talk to the kids and tell them that it's not okay to do so. Or if you are afraid of them reacting badly/pulling again, try to just stay away from them. If you really got hurt or are afraid of being hurt than I recommand telling a student 'trust person' or a head of the school about those kids as that would qualify as 'bullying'. I wish you the best atleast! Always try to stay safe, please.
The hill thing is pretty relateable like, 2 legs sound pretty easy to collapse using 4 would make falling less likely I hate walking on 2 legs sometimes
I'm a wolf and I'm really protective and I'll growl at people who try to take my friends or fight them and i paw at my friends like i want cuddles or i just want a hug and I'll just chew on random stuff and after a nightmare I'll wake up growling can we be friends 😂😂🤷🤔👌
@@PDTherian I almost bit someone cuz she was touching my face she looked shocked and said omg where you going to bite mt I said yes yes I was she hasn't touched my since 😂😂🤷
I have the issue with both a tail and a set of ears and it kind of scares me because I’m worried someone will think I’m acting strange, ask, and then I have to awkwardly try to explain while also dodging the question 😆
I did the same ;-; so we definitely share that. Just try to control it a bit, bite softer! I'm practising on it too (cuz I never realise I'm actually biting way harder than I mean just cuz my bites seem to be strong I guess)
I enjoy meeting others that have the same feelings I do in this topic! I often show emotions by wiggling my ears, twitching my nose or just purring softly. I love chasing others and biting things either affectionately or stressed. Very few people know this about me except for my family and friend. I'm happy to finally see that other people have similar struggles. ^^
I can really relate to these, I get bullied a lot at school for being a therian. Thanks for helping me! Your one of my favorite youtubers. I've been watching you for about a year and I usually rewatch your videos because I have bad memories lol.
I recently recognized that im a polyterian whos both a cat and a moth and uhh... yeah it explains a lot. I have a lot of problems with phantom limbs, ive accidentally tried to use phantom arms to grab things and sometimes when i get spooked the phantom limbs feel really real and the fur on the phantom tail stands on end and the phantom wings sorta like... flutter up and its the weirdest feeling. I also have a habit of hissing and or growling when im spooked or frustrated and also walking on the balls of my feet. A lot of things that have occured throughout my life can be traced back to my being a therian which ive recently discovered and its kinda calming to finally know why but im also sorta nervous about how knowing this is going to change my life
I chew on my lips, fingers, sometimes gently bite my own hand. But i have a kids toy (i think) which i had since i was 6 that lets me bite as hard as i want, no marks or anything
If your having these problems as a therian, I’d advise finding something soft for curl ups, a squeaky toy (dog toy) for biting, and a squishy thing to chew, or food! :DD
I identity as a German shorthaired pointer. I live in Hungary. I think in my place almost NOONE knows about Therianthropy. I do know, cause I am a therian.
Number 2, Number 4, Number 7, Number 8, and Number 9 I relate to, I'm currently searching for my therian type and researching as much as I can to maybe help me, you're the first channel I've found that talks about therians and explains so far.

![15 Therian STEREOTYPES [Debunked]](/img/tr.png)
I find that little kids are way more accepting on me wearing my tail, older kids not so much...
Probably because it's still kind of dressing up and costuming to them, like dressing up as a pirate or a princess or such. And well, they play and have lots of imagination, while older kids want to fit in, be popular,.. and then yeh :/
So I experienced the same!
Same, my brother doesn’t care and actually thinks it’s cool
IKR! that happends to me a lot
I wish i could get a tail but I'm scared to even wear it
@@DrMoonRose maybe you can only wear it at home (that's what i do ;-;)
Once my dad stepped on my toe and I yelped and he said ''Sorry Patchy.'' Because he thought it was my Dog xD
IceyMeowie ohmy that's amazing xD
My cat's name is patchy XDXDXDXD
Heh XD I meowed at my cat one time and he's like "Human ;-;, what?" XD
@@kokichioma5549 every time I meow at a cat they meow back
I can relate
I heard bag of potatoes and I was like "You called?"
I summoned the great bag of potatoes! I summoned the great Marit! Oh please lend me your wisdom and power! haha. :'p haha.
Mood XD
Ah, I’m dying! Your ferret is the most adorable thing!
TheGerbilGuru aw thank you! I absolutely love that catsnake! Haha.
But plz don't die ;)
I love being petted on the head
Dani mations aww haha :)
i am crap ikr sometimes it gets annoying though
Omg same
i am crap same..^-^
I love being pet in general omfg PET ME
Your tail is like my ears. I try to show emotion through them, and end up just staring at people lol!
Oh wow :o I almost never experience ears sadly enough. But I know exactly what you mean haha
So I can wiggle my ears and you know when dogs have like "woah" expression and their ears like go back a bit. Everytime I have the woah expression on my face while I'm in character, my ears move a bit but it doesn't really make a difference to other people 😂😂
😂 I think I may be a horse therian
Me tho lol
Same. Sometimes I'll just look at people and wiggle my ears. I have a surprising amount of control on the movement of muscles on my head so my human ears will move when my dog ears move. People tell me I look like a dumb ass alot when I wiggle my ears but i cant control it anymore
Every time I go to school there's this big dog and it barks a me but as soon as I look at it it grows I grow back and I stops barking a me
Hmm interesting! :o
Once a dog was barking at me, I looked dead in his eyes and he stopped and just watched me walk by.
If my dog annoys me I growl. They always back away when I growl. They know what it means. They consider me another dog because I’m alway playing with him.
I’m more of a submissive type I feel, so when other dogs bark at me, I make myself smaller and they end up, like, growling or raising their tails like a real pack hierarchy!
@@rahhhhh111 same wit mine! we lay on the floor and wrestle. i accidentally bit him one time cuz he wouldnt let my hand go! didnt hurt him but he was like, "what the heck?"
I can relate to most of these things so well, especially wanting to walk up a hill quadrupedal or making animal sounds when being jumpscared. Once at work I saw a big spider walking on my hand and I hissed like a reptile. Luckily whenever that happens the people around me thought that I was sneezing and answered "bless you!". XD
PS: I really appreciate that comments are active on this video! Sadly there is a lot of jerks out there who have no understanding for therians and feel the need to call them names and such under videos.
so this comment was 2 YEARS ago, but a stink bug beetle thing was on my sink, and i went to flick it but it grabbed onto my finger and I yelped and flinged it so lound my sister asked if i got shot (as a joke)
I experience a lot of these, too. Especially the part about hills, I do the same thing when walking up stairs.
Yeh! I almost Always walk the stairs on all fours actually haha xD
Oh my gosh I do that too! My dad keeps telling me to walk the stairs like a normal human would :/
Yessss same
Omg, same! I always thought it didn't mean anything, but I always climb up my grandma's stairs on all fours!
@@totothesquid6239 same I always do that at stairs :D
I want to thank you for being so brave and so open about being a therian, I’ve been judged and bullied for being a therian. You’ve helped me :)
I hope they'll never judge and bully u again. No one should deserve that kind of treatment.
Thank you so much for your kind words. But you should be proud of yourself. That you are you and you dare to be yourself. That you stand here, today.
I am proud of you.
Yeah me too, my sister bullied me because i belivie that i was wolf in my previous life, and i act like wolf, and when i'm with my aunt's dog, i just act like a wolf
I am an owl therian and whenever someone angers me I scream bloody-murder.
What it sounds like: RAaeaaEearyyeaRRAeeachCH!!!!!!!
I’m sorry but for some reason, the mental image and sounds of this in my head are making me laugh. Idk barn owl screeches are funny to me for some reason.
Im a 🐸
LMAO as a wolf Therian, I usually growl, snarl, or bark. It’s embarrassing to say the least lol
I’m so glad you mentioned hills, I am a huge nature person and love climbing and one of the things I like is to go up and down steep things and even when I’m playing in a ditch by my house and climbing out I always tend to get lower and lower until I touch the grass his also happens with long stairsets and funny story I did that on a field trip twice (one in the STATE CAPITIAL and the other in a college about engeneering)
Patchy The Coyote amazing story! Thanks for sharing :) I
Completely feel you there haha. Kinda wish I could do that as well! Hha
PD thx for the reply I’m typically ignored lol,
I can climb up my stair set in like two seconds on all fours
I would never ignore you :) That would be pretty rude haha.
And that's super cool! Think I'm a tiny bit slower tho hha
PD well, let’s just say I never fully evolved from my infant stage of life 😂
MOOD
yes i yelp when i get jumpscared
Oh yay! I'm not the only one! :D Last week I hissed at my teacher and this weekend at a family member of my mate :s I'm afraid of coming of as crazy or getting in trouble in school haha. Cuz hissing = agression. Many think.
BOO!
Me too
Omg me to XD
Jep 2 times in a row I made a cat sound when someone scared me😂😂
I experience the jump scare problem if I get really nervous thinking someone is around that might be a threat, I will bark and growl lol and the movement one for sure, I'm always like pet me lol
Yeh I've noticed how I lately growl a bit more. But I switch between hissing and growling quiet a lot when being jumpscared xD Thanks for sharing me your story!
Why can’t people just accept they’re human, like what proof do you have that you’re an animal like wtf I don’t get it
@@fanoos3373 exactly lol like I'll practise running on all fours and jumping but not because I want to be a horse just because I want to learn it. It's kind of creepy seeing people saying I like my head to be stroked and stuff like umm ok
@@fanoos3373 its like a lifestyle, its fun for people who enjoy the fandom, trust me!
@@Farenomos well I guess it seems fun to you but it’s really creepy trying to become an animal
I was trying to play with one of my normal friends and the were like wtf also nearly all of the problems I experience
Aww your friends should support you! I hope they weren't being mean? I wish you a lot of fun eitherway!
PD nope they were just confused X3 love your ferrit btw
hha aww poor them xD hha. And aw thanks! He's my lil friend hha
A problem i had was that i showed my teeth to my little sisters when they made me angry, then my little sisters learned to show teeth when they get angry and its getting annoying XD
Ahh goodness #4, the physical limitations, it drives me insane! With a Feline theriotype, I don’t have the flexibility to arch, the agility to jump, or the double-jointedness to get in a pre-pounce position. It’s so unsatisfying when you just want to act instinctively but can’t! It’s like having an itch in your shoe, you can’t scratch it! XD
Indeed! I feel your pain :/
Oml a fellow feline therianthrope! Greetingssssss!
I'm a questioning therian. I know I am one, think I'm a wolfdog, but MIGHT also be a cat? (Polytherian maybe..) and i LOVE pouncing. Try standing on your tiptoes when you walk. I have for maybe a year now, and it really helps for pouncing and making me feel more animal-like. As in, thigh being the big part of an animal's leg (the top), the bottom half of your leg as the actual leg, your foot being the bent part, and your toes as your paws. I walk on my tiptoes allll the time now. Just pretend you're wearing heels! It feels much more comfortable now that i have been doing it for awhile.
Mask the Wolf Sorry for the late response! It does feel better when I’m on my toes, it’s a lot more springy!
About questioning... theriotypes can be hard to figure out! All I knew was I was a quadruped, I had a hunter instinct, and the most of phantom limbs I got were ears... so not a lot of clues. I used to think I was a coyote, but it wasn’t quite right.
The clue I used to figure out I was a lynx was how I never howled or barked. I had a predisposition towards growling and yelping.
I wish you luck, if you haven’t found your theriotype already!
My phantom limbs are normally a tail, I don't know what kind of tail because I don't know my theriotype yet.
I found out I was Therian a year ago when I realized I would feel myself shift in a way. I would feel like my ears flattened or raised up based on my emotions and I was oddly attracted to hunting or trying to catch things.
I have the problem with biting my lips a lot. Its rly rly bad. Im that Im not alone in that
Zachary Trudell It's a really severe problem for me :/ as I really Constantly chew my lips. To the point I've timed and the longest I've been able Not to chew was only 4 hours.
It's truely destroying.
I hope your lip chewing isn't too bad and that you can handle it. I'm sorry to hear you experience it :/ tho I'm glad to know that I'm not alone.
An Airplane mhm. Not fun at all. And ill search that up
I have the same
I chew my choker (I use my choker as a collar) and I chew on pencils,my nails,my lips,my clothes,my hair,my jacket string,and I defend myself by biting people when they're close or choking me.
Me to! 😣
I have a weird movement in which I turn my head if I’m confused or if I’m looking at something. People always find it weird and point it out
Oh my god I do this literally all the time XD
same I tilt my head sometimes
Lol same
But i still dont know if im a therian
I have to remind myself not to go up stairs on all fours when I have company over lmao
Hha I relate! :3
Haha I still go up on all fours. Me don't caaaaarrrrreeeeee
I still do, my friends don't care and their parents just think I'm weird. I have shame!
I have no shame* idk how I forgot no in that
that's not therian, it's simply easier to go up stairs on all fours
0:20
I just noticed how flexible ur ferret... fluffy... thing... idk XD
anyway... wheres that "therain amino" if I'm saying it right
Yeh ferrets (the almighty catsnakes ;p ) are Very flexible animals!
Therian amino is an app that's becoming more and more popular. You only have to download 1 app, called "Amino" to your phone (or via a converter like bluestacks, on your pc) and you can acces hunderds, no.. thousands! of social platforms. For every fandom or interest.
There are cat animos, pet animos, LGBT+ animos, homestuck animos, undertale aminos, anime animos, even aminos for mental support etc.
An amino is kind of a small 'facebook' but then specificly and personalized for one certain theme, like undertail, furry or therian in this case.
So download "amino" on your app, and search in this app for "therian amino" (the 'best' one should be the one on the top of your list in this case) , join the amino and you can from there make blogs, ask questins, discuss, chat with people in public or private chats, make quizes, etc etc.
It's a very nice place!
And you can find me there under the name "PD PinkDolphin"
WOOF!
PD
Hiromaru The Therain yea im on there Frosty
@@PDTherian cat snake
Hiromaru The Therian you have to get the Amino app then search on the amino app therian and some will pop up
i have biting problems to its a pain
I find it very hard to stop biting as it has been an automatic protect-mechanism since a young age and a 'general communication tool' I use in communicating. I want attention of my boyfriend? Give him a nom. Want that annoying friend to shut up? Bite harder in the neck or shoulder etc etc. Sadly it does get in trouble sometimes however. But I can't seem to get rid of it.
same i have some cousins that love to annoy me it takes every fiber of body not to act out
Xariyah Mack actually, I got this one person at school (a friend) and I claw at him as well if he's irritating! Hha
I hope it won't get you in trouble however! :s
Me too!!!
Siberia Winter
Fucking weirdo
Koda is like " TAKE ME AND END MY SUFFERING!!! "
Haha he definitely is xD poor him!
I do the chewing thing. In year one (about 5 years old) up til now I chewed pencils all the time. It would be completely destroyed. One time when I was like 6 they gave us our own pencils to avoid chewing but mine was terrible at the end of the week.
I also had a problem with biting my nails, yes, I have sensory processing disorder and asburgers, which is probably a part of it but I have found that it might be linked to my theriotype. I'm getting a wolf tail for my birthday, and I also connect to wolves so I suspected to be a husky but I'm kinda the opposite of them. It could be a wolf dog, I have no idea but it's some sort of dog. Thank you PD for helping me and inspiring me as a therian! 🐺🐕
is..is that a warrior cats shirt?
Dead INSIDE hha not exactly :3 it's a "Team Cyber" tshirt with my fursona on, Cyber. He actually is a cat and was based off on warriorcats. He started off as a warrior OC and then slowly rised up to become a fursone.
PD Oh okay! It reminding me of warrior cats. I must say Cyber is looks amazing.
Yeh probably as Cyber is based of on warriorcats and also has such a collar hha :') I'm actually glad it makes you think of warriorcats!
And thank you!
PD i was gonna ask what your shirt said because it looked like warriors lmao
warrior cats rule!!
3:35 Oh thats so weird! For years I've always loved imagining I had a tail or even ears, and I'd imagine wagging it, or how it would move or sit when I did certain things.
Yup, I have the jump scare problem! I thought i was the only one, I'm glad I'm not, haha.
Oh I'm glad to come across others! I truely thought I was the only one haha :) Hope it doesn't give you too much trouble.
Same but I'm very silent while being jump scared I don't get jump scared while watching horror movies 🤔 just irl
Not sure if i'm therian or not. I found out later in life I have all of the tendencies of a fox. The furry community has gone to hell and there are very few good people left in it sadly- as when I wear my tail it can bad assumption material..
I like a solo lifestyle, active mostly at night, I tend to get therian shifts.. rarely however. experiencing short periods where I get instincts.. Insane intuition that effortly helps me outsmart my prey, intelligence that surprises myself even. The world is a weird place, anything's possible! 😎🦊
who knows, you may well be a therian :) okay, the furry fandom and therianthropy are two completely different things. One is a choice, the other is not (to start with). But many therians have been, are or join the furry fandom actually.
(I understand the difference completely*) Anyways I like your vid, you summed up points incredibly nicely and it is much appreciated. Wish I knew other therians I could converse with, Thx for taking the time!
I’m not sure because I identify with these things like having a connection with an animal and phantom limbs like when I was 7 I felt like there was something there but I couldn’t properly feel it and I don’t have a REALLY deep connection with the animal like I identify with those traits and I feel like I’m that animal when I act like it but it’s like not that deep of a connection so idk I’m a furry so it could just be that -v-
@@airconditionergoat89 The identify with part sounds like otherhearted (look it up) but when you talk from animal pov mabye not. Might help tho.
My parents aren't supportive about me being a therian. I have tried to explain to them multiple times, but they won't understand. They keep saying it is a childish thing, and it is not real. They won't let me buy therian gear. I will soon buy yarn and make a tail! I have ordered some masks too. I told them they were for a cosplay. I wish I lived in a place with nature. The place I live is full of roads, buildings. My paws have never touched grass. I only have 1 therian friend, but her mother is unsupportive as well ( she hates animals ). I love ur contect and keep up the amaizing work!
hello, coal! i understand your situation, although i have not explicitly told my parents about me being a therian. i am a silver fox, chihuahua, and crow therian. i tooootally relate on the wishing for grass part.. where i live there are lots of streets and sidewalks too. the wildlife walks are far away, and im not old enough to drive there ahaha. i hope you and your other therian friend are happy!! i am not close friends with any other therians near me and that sucks, but at least im in a bunch of discord servers! wish you well, coal the black wolf 🖤 -iso
When I get jumpscared I usually get angry and bite the person who scared me or I growl
Who else looked through the comments to find more therians😹😹😹😹
⬇
Same, I keep biting the inside of my mouth
i do that too and i'm no therian. it's a nervous habit
Winter Ice I do them all and I’m a therian 😃
@@user-td1oo4xb1s you chew the inside of your mouth too? and hello there, your culture is making for fun research. i'm learning a lot!
cute ferret i also enjoyed the video
Thank you! And I'm glad you enjoyed the vid! :)
The biting issue... I've had that as a big issue in the past. I've always been a therian and always strongly expressed my therian-ness. When I was 8-9 in school I bit a girl because she grabbed my arm and it surprised me. I bit her hard too, she bled. The thing is she was my friend! I felt so bad
Omg same, when my father tickles me I bite him 😅
I experience the one about hills a lot, also on stairs and just generally because I'm so short I'm already so close to the ground
i got so shifty watching this lol
Oh! I did not hear that of everyone before! I hope they were rather positive shifts then! :)
yes much chewing so fun
🌈🌈💖💜💙
Me too. My dad brought dead frozen rats home so he can feed them to his lizard and I grabbed the bag and was fighting him for the bag of rats for some reason I just wanted to eat them(I'm starving). Then he let it go and I hid them in the closet(like a dog burying a bone) and ran up and down the hallway on all my fours and was growling at him.
@@wolfiepuppotato9450 oh that’s an shift for sure XD 👍
Yeah sometimes i feel like i have ears on the top of my head like an animal and most times i feel like people will know how im feeling just like you with your phantom tail and when im sad i also sometimes whine very lightly but most people dont notice
yeh that sounds like a phantom shift! :) annoying right :/
Phantom tail and phantom wings
Hills. They will get the best of you. I enjoy running on all fours down hills, but my biggest problem is why do hills hate me so much? I've fallen like 15 times one Time running on all fours down a hill.
I feel you
This is so random but so relatable.
I feel like I can purr when happy and stuff and try to show emotion by it, I love to be pet on the head, I LOVE to curl up, I scratch people and literally make them bleed- I feel like I have ears and also try to show emotion through them, I LOVE chewing on things, I love bells, I LOVE RUNNING UP HILLS ON ALL FOURS, nature is amazing, I have an URGE to go into the woods/forest, I want to see a local therian, I do do quadrobics ( double "do"s were on purpose), I LOVE WATER, I can be jumpscared easily if someone's behind me, I'm also a polytherian/otherkin, my parents don't support therianthropy, so they don't know I am one... Sooo, yeah, ect. I also copied what a cat meowed, and had a whole literal conversation, fun!
I literally have all of those.
And it was so funny and cute with whatever u did with Koda. 😆😆
music the therian wow Nice to know! :)
And ah yeh xD well it might seem violent and all, how I handle him. But he truely doesn't mind or even find it fun! How I turn him around and around and how I play with him hha.
XD cute hmmmm. I love the lil boy.
Thank you!
Sometimes I use my dogs as an excuse to run around on all fours which is a great excuse for anyone who does quadrobatics but you don't want your family to judge you. when I get into the zone I start using vocals and I don't realize it until my mom taps be saying I'm to loud.
Wait the way you say “chew” is adorable-
I'm so glad that my videos can help you! :D That really makes my day. And I'm happy that you felt so excited :')
Just know that you're amazing haha.
Never let people drag you down indeed! I'm proud that you're able to be yourself so carefree :) Keep on being you!
feather thewolftherian We hope you do great on your journey!
I am Rain the Blynx (Bobcat Lynx mix) and I love your videos it makes me feel happy being a therian/otherkin
This happened today actually, my friend jump scared me and I yelped in the hallway at my school x’D
Awtch xD hope not too many saw and stared hha
When I was younger I thought it was just me experiencing number 2. Now I know there are others that have the same problem!
3, I have that toooooooo
That biting thing, I have that too
I chew on a chew toy because otherwise I'm going insane
8. Yeah, I really want that too
9. SAMEEEEE
11. Yeah, I get that
I recently bought a chewing necklace and it's amazing! Imma do a review of it and am planning to do a giveway I think.
Thanks for sharing!
TYSM THAT YOU MENTOINDED THE CHEWING NECKLACE TYYY I NEED IT!
Also I wear a binder and I also always have phantom wings so I’m either in pain or dysphoric... I choose pain!
This video was so Nice! I have SO many of these problems and when i see that many other therians Also have these problems i was just like, oh yea!!!!!
With problem #8, I LOVE running up stairs on all fours, it's so amazing aaaaa
Haha I relate! :D
I snarl when spooked!! You are not alone.
The Thing with the Hills I also Know from Stairs
Yes! I have that hha
I DO THE HEAD THING TOO. I have a bestie that knows that I am a therian. when I meet her, instead of say :" hi!"
I just put my head in her chest and she pets me, knowing I want it. and when I want to be pet I do the same and she does. she is the best I really love her
I'm new to the Therian community but not with the Otherkin community because i'm also Dragonkin. I recently discover that I'm Otherkin too and I want to learn better about it. Thank you so much for your video, you help me a lot 💗
Glad that I could help! There are also plenty of therian and otherkin forums and websites online (I advice therian-guide for info) where you can learn a lot :)
To the chewing: yeah, i chewed a lot on my pencils and the rubber parts of my pens, but also sometimes on my erasers when I was younger.
HELP!!! at my school they call me a ""dog'' and they say stuff like "do u need a leash" "why u wereing a dog collar" "why u wereing that ""thingy"" around your neck" .......if they only knew....
I recommend you actually to not tell them, as this will probably result in them looking up 'therian' on google and ending up with a lot of incorrect definitions and 'cringy videos'. You could link them my channel however or 'therian nation' as a youtube channel.
But telling them would probably result in only more bullying which will only hurt more.
You could tell them it's fashion as in 'I just like how it looks, dogs wear tshirts too right? It's made to be worn, no one made a law it could only be worn by dogs'. You can tell them it's an advanced chocker or a style like gothic or emo or even 'nature punk' I've recently heard, a gothic-like style but then around nature instead. I highly advice you to ignore as much as possible, as they want a reaction. That's interesting, so if you take that away.. it gets boring after a while.
Meanwhile: plz tell your parents and go to the head of the school or a trust person (teacher) on your school. They should know so they can punish the bullies. If you have any proof, show it to them.
I wish u the best of luck :s
they did it to me too, this was way before there was a definition for being therian. just ignore the humans. they will likely grow up to have extremely boring lives.
@@PDTherian thanks i just ignore them...my parents dont aceppt me being a therian....but thanks
Sad :/ Plz ignore and know that as long as you know who you are, that's all what's important. You are an animal! And you know what animals do? They survive.
I wish you the best, and ignore those people indeed, you're stronger than them. @@ChuckE.CheeseGirl
Agree tho @Thanos is Only a Meme
omg on 8:33 in the video when it said they chew on the lips I DO THAT ALL THE TIME AS WELL!!!!! i have been doing that like for my hole life. sometimes someone would be like "bro what happend to your lips"?then i would say"nothing":D

I yelp when I am jumpscared, and I often randomly bite my friends when I'm bored. I do a LOT of things like those described in your video, all the time. I used to think this was just because I was raised with mostly animals and didn't contact other people except for a select few friends and, of course, my parents. But this video has really helped me realise that I'm not just a furry, I'm a therian! Thank you so much for the time an effort you put into making this content
I relate to a lot of these actually, though I may have a different understanding of therianthropy as a "spirituality" than some. I actually dont mind referring to it as a spiritual experience or part of my spirituality. I know logically that my body is not that of my theriotype, so for me all that's left is the essence of who I am, which is both identity and spirituality to me. If I were to boil myself down to my core I would be a wolf, but my core doesnt include my body to me. Identity and the idea of the soul are almost the same thing to me.
I think you're right though to be dissatisfied with therianthropy *just* being spiritual though. It's who we are not how we are, if that makes sense.
Either way, great video!
Rayn Gibson there is a difference between something being spiritual or something being a spirituality :) ex: it isn’t that my neighbour is religious, that he is a religion. Ex: you cantreat an animal in a human way, but that doesn’t make the animal a human.
I never said therians aren’t spiritual or that spiritual therianthropy isn’t a thing. Just therianthropy as a whole, is not defined as a spirituality but rather an (animalistic) experience of a non-human identity. In this experience, we have 2 types: spiritual therians and psychological therians. Spiritual therians think their non-human identity/experiences/internal feeling come from a spiritual cause or explaination. Souls or past lifes by example. Many spiritual therians note that their therianthropy is a huge part of their spirituality and spiritual experiences as a whole. This however doesn’t make therianthropy as a whole a spirituality but rather being experienced in a spiritual way or a core stone of a spirituality in a way. Tho as long as the person is aware it’s not about believing but about experiencing (ex: you can have a past life or soul of an animal but that fact of belief doesn’t make you a therian. The animal experiences such as mindsets or internal animal feeling or phantom limbs are the indicator of being a therian) I don’t mind people calling their therianthropy a spirituality. Even if practically terminology wise it is incorrect.
But yeah i got nothing against spiritual therians :3 psychological therians identify due a psychological cause by the way. Like unconcious imprinting, complexity of human mind, unconcious copingmechanism etc.
OMG I'VE NOT SEEN U FOR YEARS WHAT. THIS JUST CAME UP ON MY RECOMMENDED 😥
Haha, welcome back ! xD I haven't made much content in the past years either but I have changed a LOT since then. And grown up a lot. I might return a bit over the summer or after my studies next year :)
I've commented on this video before but that was awhile ago, when I was still kinda new to the community......... so updated rant about how freaking relatable this video is.
So I am a dhole and a dolphin (and I am completely sure this time) and I constantly have a phantom tail and sometimes ears......... and I move them a lot as well but no one can see them...... so I'll just stare at someone waiting for them to see my tail but they never do........ also I actually put shampoo in my hand to wash my tail, but um........ ;-; also I have very strong metal shifts sometimes, like you know how sometimes you have a mental shift that is so intense that you cant understand your language and think in instincts instead of words? Yeah I have those about one to 3 times a day and often in school ( because that's where I spend most of my life) and I'm just sitting in the back of the class and my brains just like "what the F**K is going on?" And I just have to sit there and not move until it ends, and God forbid the teacher call on me. Also I play a bit to rough with my friends and my dog, but I usually dont hurt them too bad and I try to be careful. But yeah thanks! (P.s. WHERE MY FELLOW DHOLES AND DOLPHINS AT!?!?)
---Miva Ki the dhole and dolphin
hha that's all fine!!
Yeh I sure do! I also think in.. instincts? emotions? instead of words or images when shifted. It's super confusing as I KNOW what I'm thinking, but never can put it in words. I'M A DOLPHIN :p
I'm not a therian, but I do enjoy learning about therians and other types of people society calls 'strange' because it's good for me to understand them so I don't judge. However, I also experience phantom limbs sometimes and it's strange. Namely, I feel animal ears on my head or wings on my back, and it's strange because I kinda feel like they help express emotions when I feel them or I feel like they should be there, but they aren't. I occasionally feel a tail but not usually. Don't think I'm therian, but just something I noticed I also have a problem with.
Anyways, I just found your channel but I do love your content already! Hope you have a nice day/night!
Maybe you are a Kith, which means that you don't identify as an animal but with an animal. Kiths can have shifts too.
I have phantom ears/tail/wings almost constantly and some other stuff, I'm most comfortable labeled as winged neko kin, which is humanoid but with animal features. Nekos can also shift fully into cats when desired so that explains a lot too.....idk just some shared info on my experience for you since you're interested in learning :)
Edit: to clarify, a mythical creature, even one that only has features of earthly creatures, is considered otherkin but not therian :)
Savage ferret!!
Haha xD Be cautious! He might just nom ur toes! haha
Phantom limbs : yep.
Jump scares : yep.
Different body/disphoria : oh ya.
Spontanious movements : not the same one, but yep.
Chewing : I did bruxism because of that, thanks I discovered chewing collar.
Finding other therians : online it's okay, but IRL... I hear my ECHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Take care PD! ~♥~
Yeah number 4,6 and 10 happen to me a lot
Yayyy I'm not alone! :D
Iv been therian my whole life had my therian awaking when I was I was ten years old had my first shift in middle school English class felt my tail and ears I'm a proud therian fox .
omg i totally understand all of these
I'm glad to hear that!
YES I GET JUMPSCARES TOO! IM GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THANK YOUUU
I think I’m the only Iberian lynx therian in denmark ?
I get the jumpscare thing way too often tbh, there’s this kid in my class that always touches my shoulder or upper back when I sit in front of him and I jump so easily when he does it. Usually I make a weird high pitched (but thankfully rather quiet) yelping noise. Also I get phantom limbs at school nearly everyday, but I’m in slightly more control of it since my kintype is a shapeshifting yokai.
Oh when I get jumpscared I just turn around and slap people😂
Well.. that's also a way xD
the point about finding other therians is so true. It feels very weird now seeing therianthropy become so popular on youtube and tiktok, because for all of the years that I've been... aware, I suppose, most of my socialization with other therians was in private Discord servers or other really obscure internet groups I would have to browse for hours to find. I'm kind of not even sure how to approach newer larger therian communities because they feel so different.
I experience the first five problemen and à bit of number 8.
~vrydi
Cool to hear! :)
All I remember about my Therian is that they were a dog who was running away from someone alongside two other dogs. And one of them had black fur. They were in a very lush area and moss was everywhere. They were then shot in the back, neck or head (idk I just felt a really sharp pain somewhere behind my head). I didn't die when the bullet hit me, I died when I hit the ground. Also I was carrying something either brown or red in my mouth.
I only remember this because I have been having a recurring this as a recurring dream and it never changes and during the dream I'm my Therian.
So I'm pretty sure I'm a dog Therian which is supported by my Phantom ears and tail. I just don't know what breed of dog or what I looked like yet.
(idk why I decided to share this)
Sometimes telling people about something on your mind just gives you a sense of relief, even if the people you tell are strangers on the internet, most of us won't fault you for that.
If you want to know what kind of dog you are, you can just do what I did when I was trying to narrow down the search for my specific theriotype (I knew I was a domesticated cat therian but I couldn't figure out my exact breed), I payed special attention to my behaviors, instincts, and the type of environments I liked, then I made a list of different breeds of cats that had the same behaviors as me, after that I just looked at pictures of the different cat breeds that fit my criteria until I came across a picture and suddenly thought "that's me". That's how I found my exact breed, and that might just work for you too.
Hey guys I need help. I wore my tail at school and two kids tugged on my tail (I was eating candy) and I started choking and I started to cry it was scary
Talk to the kids and tell them that it's not okay to do so. Or if you are afraid of them reacting badly/pulling again, try to just stay away from them. If you really got hurt or are afraid of being hurt than I recommand telling a student 'trust person' or a head of the school about those kids as that would qualify as 'bullying'.
I wish you the best atleast!
Always try to stay safe, please.
*Gibberish Noises* Why though?! Do those kids not know personal space?
Awww I'm so sorry I hate when people pull my tail
The hill thing is pretty relateable like, 2 legs sound pretty easy to collapse using 4 would make falling less likely
I hate walking on 2 legs sometimes
I always want to chew and I’ve destroyed a few pens...
perhaps chewelery like chewing necklaces and pen covers could help?
PD good idea thank you!
For me it's hoodie strings. One of them is always crinkled because I chew.
The video of you playing with another therian is adorable! More of dis please :3
5:36 this is me
I feel you hahah
I have problems with biting, jump scares, animalistic behaviour, and wanting to curl up
I'm a wolf and I'm really protective and I'll growl at people who try to take my friends or fight them and i paw at my friends like i want cuddles or i just want a hug and I'll just chew on random stuff and after a nightmare I'll wake up growling can we be friends 😂😂🤷🤔👌
Just be careful haha, don't wanna hurt anyone or get in trouble! xDI relate to the chewing part!
@@PDTherian I almost bit someone cuz she was touching my face she looked shocked and said omg where you going to bite mt I said yes yes I was she hasn't touched my since 😂😂🤷
For chewing, I just chew on a popsicle stick when I’m finished with the actual popsicle-
"GIVE ME PEEEEEETS"
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE AAH
hahahaha
XD i relate ergg.
* *pets you, because you might want pets right now* *
I have the issue with both a tail and a set of ears and it kind of scares me because I’m worried someone will think I’m acting strange, ask, and then I have to awkwardly try to explain while also dodging the question 😆
Ye I bite A LOT of people... and make them bleed... sorry 😐🐾
I did the same ;-; so we definitely share that.
Just try to control it a bit, bite softer!
I'm practising on it too (cuz I never realise I'm actually biting way harder than I mean just cuz my bites seem to be strong I guess)
Wtf
I enjoy meeting others that have the same feelings I do in this topic! I often show emotions by wiggling my ears, twitching my nose or just purring softly. I love chasing others and biting things either affectionately or stressed. Very few people know this about me except for my family and friend. I'm happy to finally see that other people have similar struggles. ^^
Hello koda
Koda says hello back! xD
Hello my Brasil
Jana_GamersYT wolf OOOII!!
My main problems are making my vocals(mostly wolf and cat vocals) my ABSOLUTE NEED to be in the wild.chewing, and biting
Bro I Yelp like a dog when someone scares me, lol
Number 4, 5 and 7 gets me a lot-
Didn't think I would relate to every problem.
I thought wrong.
One time I was doing quads up my stairs and my dad fully thought I was our dog.
I can really relate to these, I get bullied a lot at school for being a therian. Thanks for helping me! Your one of my favorite youtubers. I've been watching you for about a year and I usually rewatch your videos because I have bad memories lol.
I recently recognized that im a polyterian whos both a cat and a moth and uhh... yeah it explains a lot. I have a lot of problems with phantom limbs, ive accidentally tried to use phantom arms to grab things and sometimes when i get spooked the phantom limbs feel really real and the fur on the phantom tail stands on end and the phantom wings sorta like... flutter up and its the weirdest feeling. I also have a habit of hissing and or growling when im spooked or frustrated and also walking on the balls of my feet. A lot of things that have occured throughout my life can be traced back to my being a therian which ive recently discovered and its kinda calming to finally know why but im also sorta nervous about how knowing this is going to change my life
I chew on my lips, fingers, sometimes gently bite my own hand. But i have a kids toy (i think) which i had since i was 6 that lets me bite as hard as i want, no marks or anything
If your having these problems as a therian, I’d advise finding something soft for curl ups, a squeaky toy (dog toy) for biting, and a squishy thing to chew, or food! :DD
I identity as a German shorthaired pointer.
I live in Hungary.
I think in my place almost NOONE knows about Therianthropy.
I do know, cause I am a therian.
Number 2, Number 4, Number 7, Number 8, and Number 9 I relate to, I'm currently searching for my therian type and researching as much as I can to maybe help me, you're the first channel I've found that talks about therians and explains so far.
