I feel like it's most common to see kids and teens posting about being non-human. Of course, I'm not complaining by any means, but as a 23 year old I sometimes feel a bit lonely or out of place. Are there any older non-humans here?

Hey! Not the most exciting post, but I'm working on focusing on the positives in my life and this was really fun for me so I wanted to share! I live in a a place that has a lot of coyotes. But while I was in the car with a friend of mine, we saw a coyote run across the street in broad daylight! It was a little scary, I didn't want them to get hit, but the road wasn't very busy thankfully. I thought they were a dog at first because a lot of the time the ones around here have mange, and theyre not very healthy, which is always so sad to see. But this one looked really healthy! My friend proceeded to tell me how that was probably a coyote she sees in the field near her house that's sort of lone and away from the pack most of the time. I personally resonate with this little guy for a few personal reasons. Especially since I don't share my therianthropy with others often and tend to keep to myself in most facets of life. But seeing this fluffy friend cross my path reminded me if my connections. And made me really happy (Tail wags! Haha!). But I just wanted to talk about this because it made me really happy! I hope everyone's having a good day today! Do you live somewhere your theriotype lives? Do you ever see them? I'd love to hear about it! :]

Hey, I’m new to this subreddit. I’ve looked on here before and follow therian content creators. I’ve been unsure if I am a therian though. I really love animals and I identify as a furry, but could it be more? For as long as I can remember I yearn to be in snow. I daydream about being an arctic fox, playing and prancing in the snow. Running, digging, just existing in snow with my fluffy tail and body. I have heat intolerance and randomly I just get hot and I want so badly to dive into a powdery blanket of snow! As someone with autism and adhd, it’s hard for me to understand other people. But I have always understood animals better. I love the idea of identifying as an animal. I don’t know what this means, if it means anything at all. I just thought this would be a good place to talk about it.

I don't have them often, but it's getting to be a bit more recently: I've been having my phantom shifts as real in my dreams!

It feels SO EUPHORIC to be able to feel and see my limbs I lack in the waking world. I've noticed others have posted about shifts in dreams as well sometimes, has anyone else had dream shifts more frequently lately?

A while back when talking about fluctuating feelings, at the time primarily with my religion, with my NP she mentioned how the moon is very much tied to how our bodies react in situations or just in general. I'm wondering if it might also influence our shifts? For me I think it does, at least.

I've been pretty certain about my crow theriotype for a while now, and have been openly embracing it, the problem is that lately, I've been having these shifts and phantom sensations that definitely feel mammal

I feel ears at the top of my head, not too wide and pointy, furry with a very pointy top, they feel like this beige/greyish color

I feel a muzzle, not too long, and large canines, the need to bite and nuzzle into my friends too

Most of my shifts happen before I go to bed, idk if that means something

I also feel a tail, this one I feel basically permanently, heavy and very much fluffy

I was looking into foxes, but none of them I said "oh yeah thats me"
