Do you think it’s ok to switch from a synpath to kin?? Idk if it’s just my bpd but I was synpath with this character but know I feel like I’m kin with them instead because I’m getting memories and???? aa idk please help,,

Its possible to have believed someone was a synpath and discover that its actually a kintype, but make sure you spend a lot of thought…

Can coping psychological kin (you believe your brain identifies that way to cope, not copinglink) feel like they have missing abilities as well?

Absolutely. The mind is a powerful thing.

what do you think is the ‘right’ way to express ‘heartedness? bc recently I was told that I was acting ‘too much like kin’ when I was talking about my ‘hearted feels and holy shit that person’s making me question again goddammit

I wouldn’t let one person police your feelings, and honestly, I don’t know that there’s a ‘right’ way t o express heartedness, though I’m open to…

I can’t stand the tumblr otherkin community, but especially the fictionkin side where everyone claims a million different kins, think being otherkin is a mental illness / coping mechanism, etc. As a fictionkin, are there any better communities out there that aren’t full of the bs that tumblr in general offers, that is at the same time accepting of fictionkin and minors?

Sadly, right now the tumblr community is the most active community of fictionkin. There are some forums that are good (i recommend incanon.org) but even…

I hope my question makes sense. I already know that I’m fictionkin, but this is about a different fandom. I’ve felt pulled to this series since I was a really small kid, so much so that I was borderline obsessed with it before I even knew much about it. My obsession faded as I got older, but the series still holds an intense “pull” for me for no discernible reason, moreso than any other fandom (including the one I know I’m from). Should I consider the possibility of a kintype from this series?

Its possible, but its also possible that this is just a series that is meaningful to you. 🙂

I’m making a list to try and find out my kin, and I’m sure it’s some sort of forest creature simply because I always feel calmer when I’m surrounded by trees, but can abilities from past lives leak into your current? Because if so, I’d like to ad d a few to my list

Yes, abilities you had in past lives can sometimes contribute to abilities in this life 🙂

Has there seriously been a push from within the fictionkin community to associate kin identity with mental illness? What the hell? Has the community really started to regress that badly?

There’s been a push from OUTSIDE the fictionkin community by a small group of self identified “fictionkin” who have more in common with copinglinkers to associate…

can hearttypes also come in shifts like kintypes? like one day you resonate with them more than most days ? idk if that makes any sense

Yes, you can definitely have times where you’re more ‘in tune’ with your hearttypes!

lately I’ve been feeling very strongly that I am fictionkin but when I talk to my friends about this, they tell me I can’t be because I’m not mentally ill. is there anything wrong with this? should I call them my synpaths or comfort characters instead?

Your friends don’t understand what being fictionkin means. It has nothing to do with mental illness. Please tell them they’re wrong and show them this…
