I'm a dragonkin and I don't know if this is normal but I have the ability to feel my dragon limbs. My wings and tail specifically but sometimes I can feel my horns and ears too. It's like a phantom limb. I can feel it and I know it's there but it's not physically there in this world. Sometimes it's comforting but today it hurts. Like I really need to get back to my body kind of hurt. I'm all sore and achy. Does anyone else get this kind of feeling? Or is it just me?
This is somewhat common among otherkin and therians! I don't experience it personally, but I know a lot of others who do. It's often called a "phantom shift" (phantom limb shapeshifting). Some have it constantly and some have them come and go.
If it causes you pain and other problems, I recommend that you check it out with a doctor. Just to make sure there isn't something else going on as well. Sometimes normal physical pain that is easy to treat (like strained shoulders) can intensify phantom limb sensations in otherkin.
