i fucken cracked it guys
so i go nonverbal sometimes (yay...) and its often because of stress or overstimulation, which i think is pretty common, but sometimes it feels like it just... happens, no specifig trigger, just nonverbal suddenly.
well, i think that that might actually be a shift?
i mean, animals cant talk, right? foxes dont have human vocal chords. so, it wouldnt be too unreasonable to assume that a shift could very well mean that i go nonverbal.
idk just something im thinking about

Pax Vents :(
Sometimes it’s so hard having a human body but an animal mind. Especially a birds mind. 
My vulture instincts stress me out sometimes so much that I have shift panic attacks, if that’s a thing. I can tell it’s going to rain, I feel it in my feathers. My wings try to get me off the ground, but I can’t fly. I’m so stressed out, I need my mate, I need to be in my nest, I don’t feel safe. I feel as if I stay here, in school, in America, I could die. The rain isn’t fit for my feathers. I need to be high up, back in my nest, on my eggs. My wings are tired of trying to get this body off the ground. They crave for the warmth of my mate as we cuddle in our nest. They crave to teach my chicks to fly. They crave to spread and fly over the blue seas. 
Being in this building isn’t my home, my home is so far away. I just want to go home. 
I’m honestly thinking of getting myself a chick or cub because my mother instincts have been so strong lately. I crave to keep my cubs or chicks close.
If anyone can relate or has anything to say please reblog or send inbox things for me TwT /nf, pos, gen

Tail has been weird lately. Been getting really sore there and been having a lot of phantoms. I'm wondering if perhaps I'm growing a tail, or getting psychological symptoms.
Also - my tail isn't really that long, my phantoms seem to only reach about a foot before the phantoms become weaker and I can only feel the tip the end.
just some interesting musings this morning from a creature

ACTIVITIES FOR THERIANS <3
Quadrobics !! ( Otherwise known as Quads )

Link: ( this link will send you to a video on YouTube explains and introducing you to the art and sport of Quads!
youtube
Q: Why do some therians choose to do this ?
A: Since many animals move in such way it can feel very connecting to do so!
Other activities!! ( general )
Painting with water colors
Researching the animal you feel most connected too!
Go bone hunting (going out into the forest or nature like area searching for bones of animals!)
Make a therian mask
Make a playlist of music or videos that make you feel good or connected to your animal(s)
Watch animal documentaries
Draw a paw into your hand
Dig holes in sand or dirt and out things in it
For more animal specific activities go below!
For you hunters out there here are a few ideas:
- Tag, hide n’ seek ( requires another person )
- Scavenger hunts
- spot the difference or seek-and-find books (like where is waldo !)
For fish or oceanic therians:
- Play in water (outside at a pond/Lake or in a bath)
- Go swimming, surfing, fishing
- Play with bubbles
Flying Therian Activities:
- Play with a kite
- Catch bubbles
- Stick you head/hand/etc out the window and of a car and feel the wind pass by you (do it safely!!!)

Hey, do you have any tips to make someone have shifts to their linktype?
Hi! Sorry about letting you wait so long. I wanted to wait until I can focus on giving you a proper response instead of a half-assed one.
There's a couple of things you can do! And there's a couple of shift types. I won't detail them all here, and I think the biggest ones are mental and phantom shifts. Mental shifts, as the name says, are shifts were you are in your 'type's mindset and thinking patterns. Phantom shifts are when you feel like your body physically looks like your 'type's (extra limbs, different body structure etc.). Phantom shifts, from my experience, can be more easily induced by putting yourself in your linktype's mindset, so being in a mental shift, and being mindful of your experiences.
Engaging with your images and videos of your (in case of fiction) canon or (in case of animals) natural habitat can help remind you of your linktype's mindset and get into it more easily. But be mindful of not falling into daydreams about canon events, because you're trying to make your current body feel like your linktype, and your current body ain't in canon so that causes more of a disconnect than connect (at least in my case).
You can also keep a memorabilia connected to your linktype that works as a physical reminder, like a bracelet, necklace, key charm, or a small item you can carry in your pocket or bag (be careful not to lose it if it's not attached to anything!).
Picking a clothing style that your linktype would wear can make it easier to have shifts - clothes that fit the deal make it easier to believe that you physically are the link.
You can try imitating your link's movement patterns. I mean, for example, stretching out your fingers like a cat stretching its clawed paws, u know? It can help get into the vibe.
That's all I got! Sorry again for taking so long. I hope it helps! 🦑 If someone reading this can think of something else, please add it in replies or reblogs!
