i recently started labeling myself as a fictionlink, because it helps me with my anger issues and insecurities. but the imposter syndrome is kicking in, and I feel bad for not having an involuntary identity. I didn’t have to suffer through a different lifetime, there’s no negative feelings to this. I feel guilty for wanting to be who I am with no consequences. and I’m a hypocrite, because it’s ok for anybody else to do this, but when I do it, I’m in the wrong and should feel bad. There’s nobody in my life who I can talk to about this. I’ve been looking at a discord server that will accept me, but I’d have to lie or explain to my parents about what Alterhumanity is. How the hell do I tell my fifty year old parents that I choose to identify as a fucking video game character? On top of that, I’ve been really lonely, and I want to find a partner that’s an alterhuman of my link’s partner, but I know that’s really specific, and that I’ll probably never find that someone.
