Your Fursona
3 weeks ago
General
A few of you know I don’t have a fursona.
When I think about one, it’s difficult for me to imagine one. However, I was able to talk recently with someone about it, ^^ and got to hear his story of his fursona.
I’m still stuck on who is me, and what is me, so idk may take time or maybe I’ll just bite the bullet and go for what’s currently in my head.
But I wonder, if anyone wants to of course, how did you end up with the sona you have, and was it always that sona? Or did you change it?

FA+

Ive gone through the thoughts and have a couple discussions myself. But, I dont could just never decide or pinpoint a singular thing that would preference a "Furry Me"
People love to say "Choose your favorite Animal" or people have said their Native Totem or Zodiac.
I considered both The Lion and The Horse.
I even considered combining them.....
Just, every angle I took, I cannot settle on anything.
Eventually I gave on the idea.....Im not able to lock down a Fursona or Singular identity.
Even for the artworks I get, or fav, i genuinely enjoy what I view. For my ocs that I have, I can’t really imagine myself as my ocs, but I can think up what I want for them, what I’d like for them, and definitely what I enjoy about them.
Idk, sometimes difficult to explain, I always worry that I just cause myself to alienate myself to others because of it.
Thanks for replying btw, it helps me to be able to read more on this kind of thing as I try to just exist and learn. I always wondered how most people at least found something to represent themselves, and whether it’s multiple different creatures or one or an abstract concept etc.
I’m still new to the community here, even if it has been 2 years on this site I think? But I definitely want to try to push myself further to get to know others and hopefully myself along the way.
So annoying
I just could never get it down myself.
People say "Find an animal that closely represents you"....the Tiger!
But...s much as I love Tigers (Love lions More, and just a MAJOR cat person) it just never personally connected with me....I could never figure out a design id like.
I tried thinking outside to animals I simply like....I love cheethas (you can see the love of Felines/Cats) and I like Birds. I looked at a Gryphon.
just...once again ,nothing clicked or connected to Represent "ME"
And I think another thing that held me back is that most people make "Fantasy Versions of how they'd like to/want to be seen in the fandom. dont know why, but I didnt see that for myself.
I dont know why, I just never found that headspace for myself in the Fandom.
Sorry for oversharing
So far in my life, I like just what I have now, I don’t like that I don’t know what is -waves at self- all self? But I love bringing the characters in my mind to life, I love interacting with others when I get the chance, and I like the little things I do enjoy that I can make mine but aren’t always making “me”.
So I totally get it. It’s great talking with others who know more or else what they can see themselves as, it’s super helpful knowing sometimes that there are others that are kind of in this similar thought as me, so speaking to others that are like me, or similar to me, or maybe even have had similar thoughts but different experiences are great too.
It helps me sometimes center myself, when that’s already hard to do. I kind of like to think of it as sometimes I am in the horizon point, between sky, sea, land, space, etc. Kind of like, I am not just this aspect or concept or whatever but also not that.
Which I’m sure is weird way to phrase, but basically sometimes it helps me at times to know that even if the Me is not this or that, at least I Is and Am me even if I still don’t know me.
Super confusing I know but my head gets this way a lot.
I'm leaning towards the dragon for you, in general. But I can be biased, lol.
