Fictionkin tips
Hi! I’ve been looking around for tips on connecting with your kin type/easing dysphoria, and it’s all the same “interact with your source, draw yourself, do hobbies you do in your source, etc” so I’ve tried to come up with some unique ones
-
I’ve found this really helps for me, stim boards and fidget toys related to your kin. You can easily make a diy stim board with some cardboard and some textures/fidgets you like, and theme it around your kin. I’ve made one myself and it’s pretty cool, I’ve got a low honor/high honor slider, a fur texture spot, and a little spinner thingy that looks like spinning the chamber of a revolver. if you don’t want to make a stim board, just get a regular fidget related to your kin, like a pop it or fidget cube
-
Scents related to your kin type. For example, if you lived in the woods a lot in your source, consider getting a candle that smells like trees. Or buy perfume/cologne of a scent tied back to your kin
-
Decorate things to look like your source material. If that means adding a random piece of pottery or something somewhere, go right ahead
-
Look at writing prompts (you can find them pretty easily on tumblr, twitter, and Pinteres) then insert yourself into them
If you have any other suggestions lmk in the replies!
