Realising I Have Grown Up With Otherkinity In My Life..

Realising I have grown up with otherkinity in my life..

This isn't meant to really mean anything, it's just a cool observation of mine.

I found out about it in grade 9, through a friend. She'd sent me a tumblr blog of otherkin recipes, saying something like "otherkin are kinda weird, but their recipes are amazing"

This led to me looking through the blog, discovering a whole Thing that would otherwise be unknown to me. It started off as just a "phase" iykwim? It felt fun and interesting, and I really connected with it but I wasn't sure why. I made *some* things up, as "edgy" teens are wont to do, but slowly discovered a part of me I didn't have a name for previously.

As of writing this and saving it to my drafts, I am in grade 12, age 17, and will be done with school this year. I know myself so much better now because of otherkinity etc etc (Side note: I graduated school! And am in a full-time job! go me! (and I'll be 18 this year <3))

I'm just so sad about the blog - I have no clue what it was called! I tried searching for it so many times previously and found other amazing recipe blogs, but I'm not entirely sure what that specific blog was.

As far as I remember, it had a pink/light red mushroom/foraging theme.

Many say “oh youre higher needs higher lv autism? you just communicate differently n that valid!!”

but, often see ppl often walk around or boil down to “if communicating At All then good”, what if cant? what if when Yom isnt thinking, communicating differently, or expressing At All?

unable to communicate doesnt equal less value. doesnt mean less human. often for self, we dont feel conscious. we often stare off or look at nothing and nothing at all in brain. lot of times we dont think, and other times think and daydream lots, but still no respond. lot of times cant even use own aac when needed most.

dunno how to describe for us, it just nothing

and not responding or doing anything at all doesnt equal ignoring you or “no”. often do want something but body does Nothing, so it assumed “no”.

For Yom, we often Are in our own world. perception of world so different. no less human. Not made for your world. Dont think or breathe same

still deserve love, even if not pleasing you. Been told many bad things because brain don’t communicate at all lot times. been assumed “bad person” because dont respond

This is all the time, not just selective mutism for I

—

everyone different, we are not fact for all. always ask when comfortable.

for us, it best to not force us to do anything, or keep asking “what wrong? what u want me to do?” when not responsive, cuz often can’t respond at all. it best to just make us feel safe n comfortable. so sick of ppl talking so much
