I awakened 6+ years ago and I hate my fandom. I hate the source material, I hate how huge and iconic it is, and I hate that I can’t embrace my kin identity without people thinking I’m doing it for attention or to boost my self-esteem. I’ve never seen another fictionkin express this- in fact, the bigger their fandoms are, the happier they seem. Am I doing something wrong?

No, you’re not doing anything wrong. I’m no fan of digimon. My close friends who are fictionkin don’t much like their source material either. Honestly,…

I have a question that I’m too embarrassed to ask off-anon, sorry. I am pretty sure I’m not fictionkin, but yet sometimes I will feel like literally a character is rising up from inside my brain to act for me or to guide me, etc. Pre-existing characters, not OCs. Even when they aren’t actively acting for me, they are still sometimes there and even talk to me and others who are there. I’m not sure what this could be and since I’ve known about otherkin for 10+ years my only thought [1/2]

[2/2] was that it had to be related to fictionkin. And yet as I dwell on it and the more I think the more I…

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. I would never have chosen it (he is probably the most hated character in the franchise despite being the hero) but the more I embraced it, the more things about my life made sense.

I was told by a fellow kin on a kin chat:  “For the psychological aspect, I believe that a combination of basic personality traits and…

i don’t reject the possibility of being [x] in the past, but it’s not terribly important to me. i do believe in multiverses but i’m the sort who thinks that entails i was, will be or am now (somewhere else) everybody who has been or will be- exponentially more than the two types i identify as. yeah, i don’t pay too much attention to it. then again, i also remember a thing or two, so… hm… these questions are helpful to me, too

Fascinating thoughts. Can I ask if you identify as psychological kin, or copingkin, or a mix? Here are the questions anon is referring to. I’d…

for me it has nothing to do with coping, it’s a personality/brain(?) thing. wasn’t a decision so much as something i just noticed after a bit & needed to think on a little more. i know that i am who i am because i simply do. though i don’t act anything like i used to, “my insides are the same”- that’s the only way i can think to word it, it’s complicated. honestly, i’ve never thought so much about how to answer those questions outside my social circle. i’ll sort out my thoughts and try later.

Thank you for taking the time to answer 🙂 I’d be delighted to hear any more you come up with, and any anyone else does.…
