Why would I fight it? It's what I want more than anything and everything else. I spend large amounts of time trying to crack shape shifting! I'm more obsessed than any fur I've heard about- well, as obsessed as I can be while keeping a low profile.
What do you mean? As in the lycanthropy syndrome in psychology where a person beleiving to have or desiring animalistic characteristics obsessively would actually develop them as habitual behavior and thus think they were the animal they desire to be? Or is this a totemist standpoint we are taking, as I am unclear on such religions.
I just read your reply: I really like your psychology standpoint, and agree with it. I tend to associate mouthing things with oral fixation, or frustration, but I was a bit narrow-minded and definitely think that psychological lycanthropy is another option to consider. You worded your argument well, and brought up a point I hadn't considered, which people don't do often. At least from me, you get a brownie point.
Thank you!
You know, its interesting how a percentage of people on this website are nicer than on certain others. I know FA has its own group of freaks, most of them also like others on the interweb, emo, attention whores, or overall assholes, on top of pedos and zoophilliacs, but also a vast majority are nicer, too, as well as a lot of cool people.
We're all a little strange here.
Not me, really... I just need someone I can breath with, someone who loves me but not quite intimately... A kinder version of my sister would be perfect. I would really love a girlfriend, but I don't really need one as much as I do a good friend.
I know what you mean, too. It's pathetic that people I call true friends are all here on the net... Which is part of the reason I don't have a girlfriend still, or living friends yet. I live in the midwest, and pretty much any fantasy or scifi fan can forget being liked outside the family, if they're lucky. That's why I'm moving to oregon. XP
wanting to chew on things is normal. i know mine is due to an oral fixation i've had since i was little. its made worse by stress. have you been stressed at all? I'm guessing so. especially before you sleep, you're body is searching for comfort (as a babys mouth does when it's an infant. it looks for it's mothers nipple for food as well as comfort and reassurance- im not kidding) it's why infants often fall asleep or quiet down while nursing or sucking on a pacifier . So. yeah. it's a comfort -seeking behavior. try to figure out what's stressing you out.
It's not an oral fixation, and it's not chewing. I just want to bite down really hard, or hold it between my teeth. It might be stress, but I don't think that's it. I do entirely different things when I'm stressed.
your body changes. in fact, our whole hormonal system changes regularly over a span of like 4 years. For me, usually biting down hard (versus biting, sucking) usually means I'm frustrated, sexual, and/or angry. Usually I'm searching to be comforted or resolve this. I enjoy biting.
Okay, this is what happenned with me and why I did these things.
I would chew on wood obsessively cause I thought about rodents chewing wood, then realized it was me and I was chewing wood (beginnings of a form of therianthropy?).
Your teeth ache and chewing soothes them.
Chewing on something sexually stimulates you, and is a good replacement for a lover until you find one.
For instance, many people who are like that chew on blankets or pillows in bed. Like me. And like you.
Your so hungry that you've partially starved yourself to the point the brain is using primal urges, and they are saying, "Eat that it looks edible."
1.) You are very hungry
2.) You are needing a signifigant other in your life
3.) You are very angry
I'm not trying to be a jackass or anything, I seriously think that, or it could be a completely different issue.
Often, actually. It's a curse.
And as an apology to Valridagan for spamming his journal, we should take our textual communication elsewhere.
Just keep in mind I only check it about four times a week.
