I deeply wish I could find an otherkin/fictionkin forum or chat or something that was a little more… I dunno, serious? More interested in the theoretical or philosophical aspects of being kin? I’ve been visiting a kin chat recently and it’s just so completely braindead that I don’t think I’m going to stay. The overall quality of every kin community I find is so -low- that I’m beginning to get discouraged.

I know the feeling, anon. I would love to find that space, too. I feel like a lot of kin spaces start out like that…

Hey there! So I’ve heard a lot about kin and I’m respectfully neutral on the subject. But having found you, I’m actually quite curious about something. Have you ever met anyone who is also kin with Pearl/Vriska/Kaizer and how do you go about that? Do you believe you to be the only one, the true one, or can there be multiple? I mean no disrespect, I was just wondering about this possible dilemma. Anyways, keep being you~ no matter what no one deserves to tell you who you’re supposed to be.

Hi there. Thanks for being so respectful. You can read  a lot more about my beliefs and experiences on my webpage: http://fictionkin.net/ To answer your…

Hi this is factkin anon! So I told my partner who my kintype is (Im still uncomfortable saying that) and the person I miss. I mentioned that my partner is my mirror system- well we also mirror each others kintypes. Idk if there’s a word for that but yeah, turns out theyre factkin too, and the person I was missing so much.

I am so glad that worked out! When you said you had a mirror system I had a hunch it would.

I don’t want to assert my experiences as more important than anyone else’s, but I have a confession… it sometimes bothers me how many people seem to be “having fun” with being kin, when being kin has been deeply intertwined with a lot of emotional/mental health problems for me. The flashbacks that lead to my awakening were traumatic, and came on as a result of unrelated trauma. I can’t even do anything relating to “my” canon without feeling a surge of anxiety shoot through my body. (cont)…

…(cont). I don’t understand why my experience has to be so negative when many other people appear to not be nearly as impacted by being…

Felix, I get really embarrassed about being kin. I’m otherkin and fictionkin and I always see people making fun of them and I feel really bad. I want to suppress how I feel but I know I’ve already tried to do that and it didn’t work. I just wish I could be more comfortable being kin. Do you have any advice for dealing with feeling ashamed of being kin?

Hey anon, I hear you. I feel the same way sometimes. Its hard to be treated as strange, annoying, stupid, etc, and all the things…
