I'm new here, and just wanted to say "hello". <!-- s

While I don't think I'm otherkin, I have definitely felt in touch with something "beyond" since I was young. I've only just summoned the courage to try to explore what that might mean. I feel very deeply the pain of others, to the point I can "feel" something is wrong about specific people before I could possibly know something is wrong, and have been shown that my "senses" are correct. This wouldn't be that extraordinary, but it's happened with people I barely know and people far away that I barely talk to, and felt compelled to call because of that "sense"--and I was correct. I don't really know what to call it.
I've never talked about it in any serious way with those close to me, and had chosen not to take it seriously until now. I figured an otherkin community would be accepting of someone exploring who, or what, they might be in contact with--if anything at all.
