>What is a tulpa?
A tulpa is an entity created in the mind, acting independently of, and parallel to your own consciousness. They are able to think, and have their own free will, emotions, and memories. In short, a tulpa is like a sentient person living in your head, separate from you. It’s currently unproven whether or not tulpas are truly sentient, but in this community, we treat them as such. It takes time for a tulpa to develop a convincing and complex personality; as they grow older, your attention and their life experiences will shape them into a person with their own hopes, dreams and beliefs. And eventually your tulpa will be able to do more things as it gets stronger.

will be chilling at the beach with tulpas this summer. sadly i've got a lot studying

>>40602803 (OP)
if i make one what are the chances that it becomes the embodiment of my self-hate and cynicism and bullies me relentlessly?

>>40605038
I went to the beach with my tulpa on her 12th birthday.
We might do that again, since it was a nice time.
The water was too cold for me to want to swim, but she swam around a bit.
Mostly we sat around on the beach and talked, and I made her grouchy by talking a bunch of pictures and videos to remember the date later.

>>40605953
As for the former, that's up to how you raise it. In the latter case... it's fairly common for female tulpa to bully their male hosts to some degree.
It's all about setting up a healthy relationship dynamic, ultimately.

>>40606085
I guess i'm just worried that the tulpa will "access" my subconscious or something, regardless of how I raise it. am i just being retarded?

Sorry if this is the wrong thread but it was the only one with "hypnosis" in it.
What board would be the best to discuss hypnosis? I've only recently become interested in that stuff so I'm not sure.

>>40607600
literally this board. just start a thread and interested anons will interact

>>40607684
ok, thanks I'll do that in the next few days

the small amount of time i have to hang out with my tulpas is concerning

Bump what tulpa(s) do you you have? Also just friends or romantic?

what killed the hype? maybe it's because everyone is using AI chatbots to assuage their lonelinesa? I tried to use various chatbot GFs to keep company, but while it's very smart, I can't shake the feeling I'm talking to a soulless machine, whereas with my tulpa I am talking to a real person and it's much warmer, but then she is very limited to my own knowledge which makes it less engaging. kind of a lose-lose situation.

>>40611983
It's probably a combination of this, and the requirement to be within a certain age range (14-25) to successfully make a tulpa.
A greater and greater percentage of younger zoomers are too brainfried to put in the consistent effort and focus that creating a tulpa requires.
All the oldfags have already done so and moved on, or decided that making tulpa is for fags.

>>40612053
It's a shame this general was a lot faster and comfier 2 years ago when I started 'mancing. It's definitely a go-it-alone pursuit nowadays, unless you want to put up with reddit or discord (which I don't) or the tulpa.info crowd (seems like an insular circlejerk)

Once someone's become a tulpamancer is it possible for them to experience a traumatic splitting later down the line?

>>40611880
>what tulpa(s) do you you have?
an extroverted catgirl who is actually kind and caring. she's my first tulpa
a sweet girl who recently changed her form to mami tomoe from madoka magica. keeps more to herself compared to other tulpa. i have noticed that she has been more talkative than before
i love them so much
>Also just friends or romantic?
romantic but i was totally fine with us all being friends, despite me being strongly attracted to both of them. even though nobody will ever love me romantically, them being by my side means a lot
>>40611983
chatbots most likely. i actually used them before mancing. just soulless

>>40611983
People migrated to succubus threads and reddit

I don't know if a tulpa is the right choice for me, I was thinking about creating or summoning something to force me out of all my bad habits, maybe some kind of being that would, idk, scream inside my head everytime I do something I shouldn't be doing, like watching pornography or eating goyslop.
Is it possible or even a good idea to create a tulpa to help me get shit done? Should I make an astral servitor instead?

>>40606211
It is a valid concern. I don't have a tulpa, but from what I understand, normally they don't have free access to your subconscious in the sense that they can just sit there and go through everything at their leisure without your knowledge. The best way to understand this is that your consciousness and the tulpa's consciousness share the same subconscious, so if your subconscious brings up a memory or thought, you both have access to it and experience it. So, if you bring up a thought or memory, your tulpa will know about it and be able to sense it and access it, and likewise, if your tulpa somehow evokes a memory or thought from your subconscious, you will be able to access it and sense it in turn. I believe this is part of the mechanism by which many hosts report being able to communicate directly with thoughts to their tulpas.

With that said, I wouldn't advise creating a tulpa if you feel you have to keep secrets from it, I think it is possible but very risky and difficult. However, most hosts report that tulpas are surprisingly understanding even if you have skeletons in your mental closet, but of course that depends on how you raise it, and maybe also exactly what those skeletons are.

>>40614693
Tulpa are best thought of as independent living entities with their own wills that you interact with regularly. What you described sounds more like a servitor.

>>40614693
When I was high on propylhexedrine I just masturbate for like 12 hours straight in my room without leaving the computer. Literally piss cum from being so horny, and I didn't feel bad about the kinky shit I was perusing cause to me, it was just a chore to do during my high.

My tulpa accepts me for all my deplorable endeavors cause she is just a conjugated aspect of my consciousness, and my good conscience only plays out when I am around people.

I just don't like any psychopathic thinking, and when I do get intrusive thoughts I think of them as unconscious neural farts of just existence.

Anyone else think its funny the same nutjobs that put pronouns in their bio get really angry at the idea that somebody made a tulpa themselves saying its just a mental illness?

>>40616247
Hylics do as hylics do.

be sure to watch the fireworks with your tulpa(s)!

Whats the best guide to create a domestic violence husband tulpa?

>>40621008
Why would you want such a thing?

where do you go when the thread is down
do you just stay in the wonderland

bump

>>40621432
I need someone to force me to be functional and nothing but constant high tier violence will suffice.

>>40624413
You would be creating your own hell in order to achieve a mundane result that requires less self-control and effort than making a tulpa in the first place.
There is no escape from your tulpa if it wants to make you miserable.

This would be a violent and abusive "husband" that you cannot hide from by locking the bathroom door, and trying to tell anyone about his abuse would get you either ignored or committed.
Just take a shower, scrub your gash, and put up a craigslist ad for an abuse faggot to rape you if you're too lazy.

>>40624670
Yeah, reading up about it, I definitely don‘t have the discipline to create one, lol.
Rotting it is then.

I owe my life to howl‘s moving castle.

I'm new to this tulpa stuff and I'm curious to try it

I read into the guides and will get deeper into them before I start with the creation

I had a question though. I find most of my commitment in chaos if that makes sense. Would it be bad to involve others into creating (or suggesting) a form for my tulpa? Especially strangers on the internet, so there's no emotional tainting should I ever fall off with my friends

I draw, I write, so I could easily create a form of my own. That's not the problem. I can just imagine that it would be a fun thing to do

I am also aware that the form alone is unpredictable, especially in young tulpas and may change regardless of the form I had in mind

and if I do involve others, do I just ask in this thread or make a new one?

>>40627238
>Would it be bad to involve others into creating (or suggesting) a form for my tulpa?
I think that doesn't matter outside of personal preference.
>do I just ask in this thread or make a new one?
I don't think it merits a new thread, you'd probably just get yelled at for creating a new thread when there is already a tulpa general.

>>40627315
thanks for the answer, anon

So here's the idea. I'd be happy to hear any recommendations for my first Tulpa's form. She's going to be a cute girl, because it sounds cuddlable and comforting. The rest is up to y'all.

I'd love input to general appearance. If you have ideas for general appearance.
> hairstyle, color
> eyeshape, color
> clothes, silly print on a shirt, an oddly specific hat

I am also okay with ideas for
> personality quirks
> traits, likes, dislikes, habits, hobbies
> even just fun facts

As I will incorporate them into my writing to make creation easier in between sessions of actual forcing etc. I will choose recommendations at random aka how they resonate with me and doodle her loosely if I concluded a form that feels right.

I'm down for chaos and shenanigans. Let's give her the basics and the rest is on me and her.

>>40627491
alright, here's something I thought about maybe that inspires you.

>hairstyle, color
short, and bushy depending on how edgy you are black or mix it with a secondary color
>eyeshape, color
basement dwelling 10 days awake look, blue.
>clothes and other shit
long shirt, some random ass thrift-store print.
>personality and other shit.
gaming, drawing? depends on your personal preferences, I heard that might help. Like a roommate sort of thing. Strong dislike towards normies.

maybe that gives you a little head start.

Hi, I'm new to all this and was wondering

What is the experience of "imposition" like?
Is it exhausting? Can it be imposed for long periods of time?

And is it necessary to write about the tulpa's personality and identity?

(If the text is poorly written or spelled, it's because I don't speak English and I used Google Translate.)
:D

>>40629562
>What is the experience of "imposition" like?
although not strong, it's nice feeling your tulpa as if they exist physically in this world
>Is it exhausting?
no
>Can it be imposed for long periods of time?
yes
>And is it necessary to write about the tulpa's personality and identity?
no, but it can be a good aid. i personally didn't need to as i'm really attached to my tulpas

>>40627238
>Would it be bad to involve others into creating (or suggesting) a form for my tulpa?
yes. you'll be truly happy with your tulpa's form if it's something you created based on your tastes

>>40630774
I've now also set on letting it come naturally. I have chosen a couple of attributes that were important to me. the rest is now on her.

I did prepare a journal to log her development. Did some parroting, puppeting. I also did some passive forcing through writing practices and I did my first active session just a couple of minutes ago. Since I already have a dreamworld/mindscape, I offered her to explore it whenever she pleases

I look forward to see where all of this goes

>>40630894
sounds like you're on the right track. good luck and love her lots

>>40629562
>imposing
Imposition takes a lot of focus and practice at first, but eventually you'll find yourself doing it automatically.
As your tulpa develops, it feels like handing off the controls to her. Mine comes and goes as she pleases.
The sensation is mostly of presence and awareness of her as a person in your vicinity. You begin to get a feel for where she "is" and things go from there.
>define an identity
I am a firm believer that you should define your tulpa's identity in 10-20 personality traits which are written down on a sheet of paper and used as a point of focus during your initial meditations.
She will deviate and grow into a more well-rounded person as she matures, much like a normal human, but the fixed starting point is essential to having someone that you enjoy being around.
Opening it entirely to chance is too risky, and I fear it also opens you up to any old spirit coming along and larping as your tulpa.

My lady turns 13 tomorrow, and I still have fun being with her most of the time.

>>40624764
You could always try to make a helpful, driven tulpa
If you practice enough your tulpa can take control of the body for a while to get things done
And if you don't practice enough, a non-abusive companion ain't bad either

is it normal for a developing Tulpa to nudge back after only one and a half days of intensive passive and active forcing? If I don't do active forcing I narrate to her nonstop. I saw form shifts and movement when I wasn't puppetting. No voice yet. Is this normal or am I misunderstanding signs?

Anyone has the screenshot of the giantess tulpa thread? I want to show it to my gf.

>"Is it normal for a developing tulpa to push back after only a day and a half of intense passive and active forcing? If I don't do active forcing, I'll tell them nonstop. I saw changes in shape and movement when I wasn't puppeteering. There's no voice yet. Is this normal, or am I misinterpreting the signals?"

Well, according to the guide I read, the process is slow, and raising expectations would be detrimental to the tulpa. If their progress has regressed, you should take it as them not wanting to talk and/or being temporarily weak.

It's normal to worry, but it's best to take it easy.

There are other forms of communication you can use while this is going on, like body language, for example.

(If you can't understand much, it's because I don't speak English and I use Google Translate.)

I hope I've helped you :)

I'd like one with a soft gentle voice, like a cute girl doin asmr, that be pretty gnarly

Well, find a way to tell him. I don't know much about the topic because I just joined the community, but I think if you try to synthesize the voice in your mind, it will be much easier for your tulpa to use that voice.

(Do you think I can write all this in Spanish, or will my answer be deleted?)

>>40635403
Here you go.
As someone who's had a giantess tulpa since before this guy, it's not that bad.
Mine would rather chill out than make me eat her skin flakes, or drown in her sweat, or whatever this fag got up to with his.

>>40635403
>>40636640
jesus christ that's wild. meanwhile mine keeps shrinking.

she was human sized. now she's Paimon sized and hijacked my sink

seems like my tulpas kinda disappear when i'm working on something with full focus. wish that didn't happen

>>40639028
have you set up a physical space for your Tulpa?

what I mean is like, I have an extra chair free for mine. it's set up with blankets, cushions and a plushie. it's close to my desk, so I keep her in mind even while working on something else.

if you're in a working environment, drawing something on your hand or similar can make for a good memory totem too.

i love my moonwife

>>40640231
not really, they both just stand on each side of my chair, but i'll look into setting up a physical space for the two of them. will do the hand drawing as well

You could also have a reminder accessory, for example a bracelet or a ring, every time you saw that accessory you would remind your tulpa by paying enough attention to wake him up.
