Hi... I'm not really sure how to do this.
My name is Sammi, Sam, whatever you want to call me. I never really had the opportunity to talk to anyone about anything paranormal, even though all of my friends are usually even stranger than me.
I just searched lycanthropy for ancient mythology research for school, and therianthropy came up as well. I was interested, so I clicked the link. I don't know if I am a therian, because I have only a vague idea of what a 'therian' is. I felt that the artice related to me (and one of my close friends, now that I think about it.) I've always had a strange 'connection' with animals. I used to feel like I could talk to them in a way, and that I always wanted to be one.
My mom said that I used to mimic animals a lot when I was little. I used to bite people a LOT, and I even did my homework in trees. I slept in one, once. Also, I didn't start using a fork and spoon regularly until I was about eight. (my parents hated it when I ate with my hands, but whatever) I would go outside at our Utah vacation house and pet moose and deer that had stumbled into our yard, not really knowing how dangerous it was.
Now, I still feel like I do those kind of things... it's not intentional, which bugs me sometimes. I sometimes feel the urge to growl at people, and I find myself occasionally cocking my head when I hear something weird or don't understand something. I don't bite anymore, but scratching has become a bad habit. When people piss me off, I want them to know that they did. I run up stairs on all fours, because it just seems so... natural. Come on, it does. Also, I have random impulses to bite things, and run. I get jittery when I'm not running around, and I can't stand to be in a building. It just makes me feel confined. I sort of got over the last one in a way, but I still don't like it...
I always have a group of friends that I hang out with, and I rarely interact with other groups. One of my friends in seventh grade was deciding what animals her friends were like, and she depicted me as a wolf. It seemed like it fit, so I stuck with it.
I was shocked when I first read about shifting, and always wished that I could try it. Sadly, nothing. Oh, well. Anyway, I wanted to join this site to learn more about if I am a therian, or just insane. I also want to learn about my friend, who acts alarmingly like a cat. Anyway, it's just nice to be with other people who aren't afraid to be different. It's a good feeling XD.
Sorry that this was so long... I haven't been able to tell anyone about this before. Also a good feeling.
