Am I A Therian? - Blog Posts

I just had the weirdest experience…. Can anyone offer an explanation? (It’s probably nothing tbh but I’m curious owo)

So, I’m scrolling through puppy tumblr because I’m having trouble sleeping when I come across this adorable image.

And I can’t explain why or even explain this experience fully but I suddenly felt like I had a muzzle. The front of my face, especially my mouth, got tingly(?) and I could “feel” my muzzle. Well it was more like imagining how it would feel but in a really really vivid way. I started to scroll away from the picture but once I noticed the feeling, I went back to try and look into this feeling more.

I could imagine how running my tongue along my dog teeth would feel and how lapping up water would feel and I felt soft tingles on my face where my muzzle was supposed to be. I opened my eyes (I had closed them to focus on the feeling more) and my flat face suddenly felt weird or foreign. I almost felt sad(?) that my face was so flat. I felt like the muzzle was supposed to be there, not my weird flat face. I put my hand up to touch my face and it made the muzzle feeling almost completely disappear (wish I hadn’t done that). It was like I squished it.

It almost reminds me of how therians describe phantom shifts but just not nearly as strong because it wasn’t like what I’d imagine a phantom limb feeling to be like. I don’t have a phantom limb lol but I feel like it would probably be a much stronger feeling.

This feeling was definitely something though… I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life. I’ve imagined I’ve had a tail and ears before but nothing like this.

Sorry for the quality of the writing here. I just had to get this down so I would remember as much as possible.

I love finding things that further validate my kin type/regression animal.

Golden Retrievers are friendly outgoing, while Border Collies prefer one on one quality time. Collies will also usually have a special/favorite person.

And I’m over here like “That’s me! That’s me!” 🥰
