Its good to have these kind of imaginations but put them to good use for art. To use this as a coping mechanism seems very extreme imho. Its obsessing over something in a way that isn't healthy. I'm seeing this is being used as a way for people to connect and make friends in a kinda imaginary world (like furries). In the end how are you really connecting with another person from behind a mask? Like maybe if you have a love for animals or a love for religious studies or history or other cultures, but literally thinking you were a dog in a past life? Like it might be more understandable to me if it really was part of your culture or tied to some concrete spiritual beliefs that have actually been passed down from generations, but this is internet culture which is interesting in it of itself, but I would never myself respect that or want to connect to others on that level. I just have high standards and I have high standards for others bc I automatically grant people I've never met with dignity and respect but I feel bad for people that do this and would not endorse it. At the same time I don't want to offend you or make you think I'm some sort of bigot but where do you draw the line with these types of things?
 
How come with 'otherkin' and stuff who believe the were another animal in a past or current life (whatever), it's always something common like a dog or something?


Why is it never an Axolotl, an Aye-aye, a Lamprey or a Gobi Jerboa?
