We are in human bodies. That can not be denied. Our experiences and behaviors are processed through a human brain. But humans are animals too. You need examine the behaviors and traits that you consider non-human. Are they just human behaviors? Could both animals and humans act this way? Or is the behavior or trait unique to a non-human animal? These questions can also help you find a theriotype or therioside. It's also important to take into consideration when and why the behaviors occurred. Do humans normally act that way in that particular situation?
See the Q&A written by Sonne, especially the questions "What traits of a therian (or possible therian) are human and which are not? Or how can the person tell which are which?" and "My behaviour really mirrors [insert animal here], does that mean I'm a therian?" This is available on Project Shift.net. http://project-shift.net/question-answer/
