could somebody help me?

[DemonShadow]

okay, feel free to be as brutal as you feel like you need to be here. But I just don't get some of the stuff that's happening to me. I know i have a few mental disorders (i.e borderline, bipolar/manic depression, anxiety disorder). But i can't help but feeling that there is something else. In the slightly abnormal way that I act.(this could be attributed to my friends,however.) Like, I have a tendancy to bite things. I smell things (and people) before I speak to them, and i don't know why. Any ideas?

Well, mild symptoms of clinical lycanthropy (look it up) would be the most reasonable answer. Or just a slightly odd human quirk.

However, I believe that they could be aspects of therianthropy also. If there's nothing more than those, no feeling of connection or similar, I doubt it, though.

well, i can see almost like it's noon at midnight, and i have before found myself asleep in a tree....when i was sure i had fallen asleep in my bed.

Good nightvision, but not a sign of anything.

Sleepwalking, as I see it. You might want to talk to a doctor about it, really. Even if you could see it as some odd manifestation of therianthropy, (dream shifting and sleepwalking combined, perhaps) it could prove dangerous eventually.

Smelling stuff: Quirk, you're not alone.

Biting: Partially ordinary, partly disorder. Many people suffering bipolars have tendencies like biting.

Night view: Some eyes are more capable of seeing at night. I think you're exaggerating though because no animals in the world sees that clearly at night.

Awake in different places: Somnambulism, or sleepwalking, is very common amongst bipolar sufferers.

okay, well, I can see very clearly. I remember one instance where my little sister dropped her quarter, and she was crying trying to find it (she's six....) and i looked down and consiously thought "she can't see that?" and it was about 2 in the morning.

Yeah, either you have good vision or she has bad. But it doesn't have anything to do with therianthropy. No physical aspects of you (or anyone) have anything to do with it.

I'm a little confused on what Therianthropy is and what it isn't . Please explain.

My two cents, Humans reach visual maturity at age 10 - 12.

Honestly, I've done things like that too, but I've always considered it that I just can do things 'better' than others. =p. Everyone has their strong points? I can see things alot of other people can't, and as Waelwlf said, I think that's true as well. The fact that kids visual maturity happens at a certain age. People always do weird things, that could be considered more animalistic, but I honestly don't understand what's so outrageous about waking up in a tree. When I was a kid I slept in a tree... sometimes.
