I often feel like I am more animal than human (humanimal?). If I were an animal, I would be a bear.

What animal do you relate best to?

C = Cultural (NT), EC = Extra-Cultural (ASD)
U = understanding ~ ADD/ADHD
A = acceptance ~ baseline, normal
T = trust ~ possible schizotypal disorder
R = respect ~ NPD
C = cerebral (adrenaline averse), S = somatic (adrenaline seeking)

I am ECUC/S (cusp cerebral/somatic)

I sometimes feel like I am like a pet dog, but I'm better now. Here. Feel my nose!

I personally like bonobos... their motto is "make love, not war"

I've thought about that if I wasn't born a human I would have liked to be a bonobo, or maybe an orangutan. :mrgreen:

Orangutans are quite chill.

I know what type of monkey walks into a minefield. A "Baboom".

I seriously, legitimately believed I had the soul of a dragon up until recently. Now I don’t know what I am, but it probably at least bears some resemblance to a dragon and is certainly not even close to human. Something with bat like wings on it’s back, a good bit of tail, and ears that are sort of catlike but are located a little way down the side of the head and are narrower at the base and easy to tuck against the head during flight.

And no, I don’t use that to try to explain away my autistic traits or anything, I’m definitely autistic as well. And just plain weird for no discernible reason.
