Do any other therians have issues with reckoning the gap of "this is my sona, it represents me" to "this is who I am"?

Like... obviously I... designed myself?

I've been rationalizing it as a kind of self-paleontology. Making assumptions on data and then changing model to match new data

Taking from a partner, I also rationalize the forms as "I am a kobold and I have both a raven & and a canine fursona"

I really vibe with the last one, I've been thinking through it like, I feel like I'm a raven, with a jolteon and umbreon sona, and was wondering if that was a "normal" experience as far as the term "normal" means anything in this context, so I guess this answers that question hehe

Happy to have company in that line of thought! :3 Should lend thanks to Zelda (of Haven Sea), who has a fox fursona and always said it as such, and that made understanding my own situation clearer. Also just explained a lot about the forms - I could often shift "up" so to speak into birdmode, but kobold was kind of a ground state.

I had my sona well before I knew myself as a therian, and even back then I felt like "I'd be like this if I could". the fact that I gave silly lore for xer and a different name than my usual ones is still not something I fully know how to handle now that I kinda am xer? some aspects of xer are my sona and not me, that's for sure.
