psychological, i don’t use this to cope with anything, i don’t understand how that works honestly. unless using this knowledge as a way to accept, enjoy or to better certain aspects of myself counts? i don’t think it does… isn’t that why someone learns almost anything about themselves :’)

I assume you’re the anon from this post. Thanks for letting me know. Honestly, I think all fictionkin, spiritual and psychological, use the knowledge of their…

I don’t really know how it happened. I wasn’t drawn to the character. I actually liked several different characters in the same series. Eventually though, it started to become apparent that I thought and acted a lot in the same patterns that the one character did.
