Topic: Do you have a tulpa or tulpae?

beckyderp !CATLDyPIBQ started this discussion 13 years ago #24,836

A tulpa is best described as an imaginary friend that has its own thoughts and emotions, and that you can interact with. You could think of them as hallucinations that can think and act on their own.

Discuss tulpas (also pluralized as tulpae, tulpi, and just tulpa) Share your experience with making a tulpa, give advice to people making a new tulpa, or talk about things your finished tulpa said or did.

1. mentally wall of a section of your mind
2. invent a person to take control of that mind
3. they come to life as an alternate personality that you can project into the world with practice

Yes! They will often interrupt my internal monologue or train of thought to comment on it.

Of course.

My advice is to put your energies into something else.

I've been reading into this thing for a little while now. As somebody who's interested in Psychology, it's a very interesting concept. I'm also surprised at how it's quickly becoming more well-known.

@381,843 (C)
It looks like it's a real thing. Obviously there's no way to objectively prove that, but there's lots of organised sites out there of people who claim to have them. It's just too elaborate to be completely bogus.

@381,842 (Green)
It's not. The difference is that these people can still distinguish between reality and the hallucination.

@381,849 (buspup !!x+kkCmnF4)
Essentially you build another personality in your head and trick your mind into thinking that it's another entity, so you end up hallucinating another consciousness within your own.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Who knows. I don't have the patience to figure it out; just like with astral projection, which is something I was interested in for a while.

How is this different from people's religious experiences?

From what they say, this goes on entirely within one's own mind. Religious people believe that their imaginary friend exists outside of their mind.

one of them shows up as a naked double of me and has an uncut penis as wide as the thinnest part of my arm and is always at least semi-erect, hes a very dominant, kinky bastard and is slightly pansexual; he only shows himself when i go without fapping or sex for large periods of time

the other appears as a female version of me with a slight build and a shy, submissive personality- she appears to be the rest of my subconscious and is always active and close by, like a second shadow.

whenever i cant get any and both are active they like to taunt me by having sex in front of me.

Just a general summary of their personalities and appearance would be interesting.

I'd like to think that you're joking, but then a channer using this phenomenon in such a way wouldn't really surprise me.

im disappointed you'd automatically assume id create tulpas for porn just cause of my internet habits, though it does seem a reasonable reaction now that i think about it...

the female started out as the jimmies gorilla, but it started changing on its own as it got stronger.

the male came into being completely on its own sometime during my first(and last) No Fap February(im still confused why it took a male form)

Alright, my mom has been in a relationship with this man named Don for almost a year now, and over the time he's done some really weird things to me (no not butt stuff).
From the moment I met him I thought he was a little weird, but that was piss in the wind when he did this thing;

I was sleeping in bed, and Don comes in with a chocolate bar. He starts to feed it to me while I'm sleeping. I'm a light sleeper, so this wakes me up, naturally I was confused, even more so because of the disorientation of sleep. He woke me up completely and told me that he 'got me some chocolate'. I ate it, as I was tired and unsure if I was having some sort of weird dream or what. After I ate it he told me that he'd rubbed it on our dogs nose before giving it to me. I didn't really care because I was so tired and just went back to sleep. The next morning I didn't really say anything because I was very confused and I wasn't sure if it was real. However, it kept happening, and he started asking me about it the morning after. One time he told me he farted on it before he fed it to me .

He also farts at me out the window often whenever I'm outside doing something. One time he farted at a kid who looked a little like me, and his parents came over and got mad at him. He still does this to me .

Another weird thing he does to me (or rather the dog) is grabs it's head and holds it to his butt, farts on her, and says to me, "I wish this was you, Daniel", very angrily. Sometimes he farts multiple times on her and she tries to get away, I feel bad for her .

He also poops his pants very often, about once every two weeks or so, that's only counting when I'm with him. When he does ** his pants, he quickly crouches down and goes behind a building or something and starts wiping his * with whatever's available.

One time he called me while he was out on the shore, and told me how he **** while he was clam farming or something. He said he just crouched over the water between two rocks, and that there were "leaves everywhere" so it was easy(??).

My mom called me once to tell me something, and Don was with her. Don asked if she was talking to me, so she gave him the phone, and he farted into it. It was a long fart, too. After like two minutes of me wondering what just happened, he said "Daniel, are you there?" and I said "Yes?" and he said "That was me farting". I hung up then.
