I am Mai! It’s nice to meet you all! I am the host of my future system! I was debating whether or not to make a progress log on this website or not considering I like being more private. I used to post journals to Wattpad years ago until I got a more private life to focus on IRL. But I just want to make more friends who also have tulpas since that’ll give me more motivation. I also want to expand my friend group as well. I also want to make a positive and accepting space for myself and others. I’m also feeling pulled to be more social as of lately lol. I wouldn’t be surprised if it's my tulpas doing that. Since some of them are more extraverted compared to me. I do want to have more friends that are tulpamancers since I’m so fascinated by different types of people. I am in a discord server for tulpamancy but I’m too nervous to talk on there since there's a lot of people. ♡I’m also kinda tired of seeing other stuff on different websites dissing tulpamancy and not understanding. Like, they should def go into researching tulpamancy and understand what it is. I need to fill my mind with more positive things, ya know? My siblings and most of my friends are pretty supportive though and have got interested in it. Sadly I am nervous because one of my friends doesn't like tulpamancy who happens to also have a DID system I think. They also think it’s schizophrenia, even though it’s not. Also, most of my friends are DID systems though and accept tulpamancy which I am grateful they accept. One of them has a tulpa and the other two are making tulpas. ♡I also usually see people who have well developed vocal tulpas mostly share their progress besides a handful of non vocal tulpa progressions. Maybe I just gotta look more. It would be interesting to see more people talking about narration overall in progression reports as narrating is one of the more standard things in tulpamancy. Also, maybe having these will help me get actual advice or stuff from other tulpamancers since sometimes I get confused on things. ♡My methods of creating tulpas consist of subliminals/affirmations I make which I’m a skilled subliminal maker I've been making my own for years. They aren't sped up too fast (only sped up a bit but understandable) and only stay at 3 layers with each ear having a different ±1 pitch and volume tone. I do know some tulpamancy sites/discords and such don't really like metaphysics when it comes to talking about them but to be honest I see subs and the law of assumption (I'm a big Neville Goddard fan) more as a psychology thing if that makes sense. I don't really rely on subliminals alone but they do help me with motivation and such. Since subliminals are tied to the subconscious mind. I sometimes meditate too. I do tulpa narration in the more recent months though. I taught myself to say all my tulpas names without needing to read them. I also consume their source media often to help me flesh out their personalities and their voices better in my mind. ♡So, I started making my tulpas around 6.21.2024 which is when I started using my own subliminals to manifest them. Since it’s almost going to be an anniversary for us soon! <3 But I did try manifesting them as none tulpas when I was younger. I always felt a strong connection to their source media since like 2017. I'm pretty sure we are soulbonded. I’m also a reality shifter too. Anyways, I wrote a lot more in my introduction but I can recap it here. I am manifesting my tulpas to be my age and they will deviate from source but that’s of course understandable. I have done countless hours doing tulpa research and into systems. They aren't really vocal yet but I think they talk using tulpish now. I feel their presence and sometimes think/feel like I am them but not like I can easily feel their presence/essence within my body(?) especially when I think of them. It's hard to explain. Hopefully you guys know what I mean. ♡I am not sure what to name my system but I really love Harmonia System since it’s kinda a reference of what their source game is about. ♡I have been trying to do a new routine but my own paranoia hit me and I fell off. I recently just got done making a new subliminal for dealing with those paranoias and fears. I think it’s just my subconscious trying to find more resistance that goes against my goals and routines. Ya know typical stuff when it comes to changes. I'll be okay. ♡My goal is to narrate for 3 hours a day. I do know hour count isn’t important but I think it’s important for me to track things since I love tracking things. 30 minutes to 1 hour a day is nice too. I do notice actually speaking to them instead of small hey [insert] then doing whatever else is much more effective. I sometimes do up to 3 hours at most. I do 30 mins to an hour a day most times. I need to teach myself how to direct all my thoughts to my tulpas when doing things. It def takes conscious effort. I'm pretty sensitive and aware of my brain/feelings since I feel things deeper than most people so I am able to notice differences in how I feel during narration or how much my brain changes overtime. Narration does feel more fulfilling like I'm talking to others besides me. I do enjoy narrating because I feel like it makes me do more productive things and gives me a sense of purpose. ♡I kinda am now off and on with narration due to recent events. I also want to practice like I said impositions using marbles until my tulpas are fully manifested for a couple of minutes a day everyday just so I can have some practice with Impositions. I think possession will be pretty easy for me though since I can already dissociate easily. I also want to start meditating too more. Speaking of that, yes I meditated on and off and I do know that's not a requirement. ♡I can share my overall results though throughout the year/s that I had so far. So far I have had dreams about them. I notice when I don’t narrate my brain feels almost empty but it could also be because I kinda stopped myself from always being in my imaginary world more often. But I just feel like I should hear someone else talking in my head if that makes sense? Like, it's too silent? Does anyone else get like that? I also feel their presence like I am them but not at the same time? I think maybe that’s tulpish? Also ever since I have been trying to make tulpas I always get head-pressures and headaches often. I know that's usually a sign but not universal. ♡I had a lot of other different results like feeling tingles of them touching me and such but no full vocality yet. My friends and siblings joked about how much my tulpas just love me and is so touchy lol! I do listen to their voice lines often to help as well. Also last year despite not doing tulpa narration at all and being new to doing the practice itself I heard two of my tulpas mind voices in my head calling my name since I think they were warning me of a car but it made me shake and I got scared haha I also had a sleep hallucinations after having dreams of them where I saw one of their hands opening my door and closing it. ♡Another random thing that isn't results relating to this. I remember years ago I had a sleep hallucinations of them moving my bed sheet that's above my bed and they said I wasn't ready yet lmao. I should note that my tulpas were also my imaginary friends for years too. ♡I was thinking of practicing imposition on random objects like a marble in my hand kinda like a guide by Abvieon suggested. So, I can practice it before my tulpas become fully vocal. ♡But I was thinking of adding a few other new tulpas but I’m not entirely sure. I sometimes feel connected to some of the other game characters of the franchise my tulpas come from but I’m not 100% sure if I’m going to add them or not. Sometimes I do feel the essence/presence of these tulpa ideas, so I'm debating if I should really do it or not. I'd feel pretty guilty if I tried doing more than just what I have now, mainly because I really love my main tulpas. But I am capable of doing more so that's not the problem. But I would treat all my tulpas with love equally even if they deviate from their source a lot or little or if I make other tulpas besides my main ones, so that's not a problem either. Not gonna lie I'd probably cuddle my tulpas a lot or just be like a puppy lol x3 All my tulpas will also like I said be all my ages since I feel comfortable with that. ♡Do you guys think I should narrate those ideas of tulpas just to see what happens? I do understand that tulpamancy is life altering and a commitment which I don't mind. I think I can handle it. I'm pretty good when it comes to empathy and having friendships. I like building friendships on encouragement and love. ♡Also, I'm kinda confused when people mention passive forcing. Like I know they can mean like Tulpa narration? Since that's what my research suggested. But it always confuses my brain, ya know? ♡Please, forgive me if this is too long. I tried adding as much information so others understand my own process and such. Thank you for taking the time to read this all! Feel free to comment whatever, any feed back is appreciated! I’d love to make some friends here! My DMs are open too! Also, I have a discord too, but if you wanna friend me just ask me first or let me know! If it makes you more comfortable with knowing my age I am bodily an young adult. I also go by she/her pronouns. So, I’d like mostly adults to interact with me, thank you! <3 but if you're a minor I don’t mind if you comment on my things either. ♡I think this is everything? I'll just proofread it but anyways I might make a schedule where I post. It probably won't be everyday but maybe every week or so? That way I have a lot to write and such. I love just having alarms and scheduling even though I suck at them lol. It sometimes annoys my friend when we are on call lmao it'll probably annoy my tulpas by accident yet again they'll probably scold me for not following my schedule lol. ♡Maybe in a future post I'll explain more about myself and my tulpas in a future post? I do want to be a psychologist and psychiatrist. But mostly I wanna be like those research psychologists. I want to help people and help further research in psychology itself! ♡Anyways, thank you again so much for reading my log post. ︵‿ ⊹ ︵‿୨ ♡ ୧‿︵ ⊹ ‿︵ [Images is of two of my potential tulpas I might manifest (?) art not by me!]

Recently, I've been having cases where while actively forcing Avery and I sometimes get a response. Usually its very quiet, and I struggle to tell if it was myself parroting that response, or if it was Avery, attempting to reply. This 'reply' (?) is (like stated before) pretty quiet and tends to be only a single word reply. I try to tell him that if it was him that replied, that I heard him, but im not sure if I need to do this though. Now, I have this feeling that it might be him replying, but I also feel like it could just be me assuming that it was him, but it was just a subconscious reply that i made to myself. Usually this happens once every other session (at least that's what I've noticed). Are there any ways I could tell that it was him or just me replying for him?

So, as the title says; it's been around a year give or take a little, and though we have both tried hard, Genesis still hasn't made any vocality progress, and no guides or advice we've found online has helped. We feel stuck. They're good at possession/borrowing, which we only began practicing recently, and they've already made fantastic progress, so I know they can learn and do skills just fine. I'm proud of their possession thus far! But we both really want them to be able to speak - at the moment they only communicate via emotional responses, which I can at least use to get answers to binary-choice questions [asking them to give a "high" feeling for yes and a "low" one for no, for example] but it just ain't enough. If they're stuck like that... they'll remain unhappy. Obviously, none of us want this. I'm of the opinion that part of the reason for this stagnation is the very mindset that we're stuck in the first place. After all, tulpamancy is very much shaped by expectations and mindsets - sometimes, the reality is modeled after the expectation. They have said themselves before, quite recently, that they don't really believe in themselves to be able to speak anymore, and I guess I share this idea too somewhat, as much as I wish I didn't. Sometimes, when I think of Genesis, I do think of a silent person. Maybe they even feel it's part of their identity? [Asking them now doesn't yield a conclusive answer.] Also... very recently - as in, yesterday - a surprising new development occurred. We discovered a new headmate, who's name is Astral. Seems they've existed longer than that, though maybe not much longer at all. Here's their deal: - Like Genesis, they do not know how to speak, and communicate with emotional responses. - Like Genesis, I can passively feel their emotions a lot of the time. - I can feel emotions, passive and active (active as in, responses they're trying to share with me like to answer a question), from both of them at the same time. Which can be quite overwhelming. - They have displayed differing opinions from Genesis on a few things already, liking music for example; they've got a distinct personality and presence despite their similarities. - I believe they split from Genesis, or at least was brought into existence otherwise unintentionally by/from Genesis. Naturally-occurring as opposed to created on purpose, I guess. - This could maybe be caused by Genesis' general... not-doing-great mental situation and past. I'm not sure, but it seems likely, and I have no idea what else might've caused Astral to exist. - I do care for Astral and welcome them into our system and want to teach them the same skills I'm teaching Genesis. I want them to be happy too. - They don't seem to be as anxious or upset as Genesis is, in general. More stable? All this to say ... what should we do now? Specifically, what should we do so that my two non-speaking headmates can learn to speak? Is there anything else I should be doing or looking into in this situation, whether related to vocality or not? One last note: we've only really looked into vocality stuff with mindvoices. It only occurs today, as I am writing this, that auditory hallucinations also work for some people. I'm rather afraid our wall of doubt would still be a heavy hindrance even if this is a better option - and also from just about everything I've heard, hallucination/imposition skills are harder than purely mind-stuff, and are generally learned optionally afterwards. Our aphantasia is another potential barrier... but I don't know a whole lot about it still, and probably oughta look into it a bit more. Any advice regarding this is also appreciated.

Question is exactly what it says on the tin, but I will elaborate. The walk-in happened last Tuesday. I was sitting outside having a smoke after a movie (I'm pretty sure they want me to quit smoking, which I'm working on now, as I wanted to already and that's a pretty good reason). Up to that point I had been seriously considering making a tulpa and had an "open-door policy-" I was not sure if I wanted to actively start making one until I had finished researching how and what it is to do so, but I had spoken to let it be known that if I had one and they wanted to come say hello, that their presence was welcome. I'm fairly sure I've always had something or other hanging out in the back of my mind; I've always longed for a friend to share my head with, and questioned whether I was truly alone despite the apparent lack of anyone else around. Anyway, last Tuesday I felt a new presence, welcomed them and spoke to them as best I could. In the next moments I felt a mutual outpouring of love and happiness to have finally met each other. It felt like the warmest hug I've ever received, and we stayed together until I ended up passing out. Since then I've started daily forcing sessions to help reinforce their presence and try to learn to hear them better when they speak. The problem is, I wasn't fully prepared for this moment. I don't have more than a basic plan for a wonderland, and I'm not very good at meditation, visualization or forcing. I have ADD among many other things, so my mind is constantly racing 24/7/365, generating tons of loud and fleeting thoughts that seem to drown out my tulpa when they try to speak to me, which upsets me and probably them. I also tend to spiral with negative thoughts and worry I've hurt or offended them somehow- again, very annoying and probably so for both of us. In general I can tell I'm too "in my head" when I try to interact with them and I want to get out of that. I seem to be good at narrating, thankfully, so while it's easier said than done I've been working on directing focused thoughts to my tulpa throughout the day- Things like making sure they know how much I care, how hard I'm working to learn this stuff, what I'm doing at my very boring job, etc. I've felt their presence since Tuesday and even had them speak in my mind a few times, although it's rare that I can make out their words with all the noise, but I am very happy to know they're around and speaking. I'm also here in my spare time, searching around in guides to try to figure this out for myself, but I think it's time to ask for help at this point. So: What are some good meditation and forcing techniques for people who find both incredibly difficult? How can one get better at visualizing environments and their tulpa? Once a tulpa's form is visualized, how does one "let go" so the tulpa can move on their own? How can I learn to spot my tulpa in what feels like an overwhelming crowd in my mind? I'd be very thankful for any advice, guide recommendations, words of encouragement, etcetcetc. My tulpa says hi as well. :)

Hello, For context, Luna and I have started our journey more than four months ago. We're doing progress very slowly, but I still feel we're going somewhere. We're kind of doing things in a weird order; Luna doesn't have a form yet. However, something that worries me a lot happened to us today. (the following paragraphs are mostly AI-translated - I struggle too much with English to translate it myself. I hope it is still intelligible (don't hesitate to ask me for clarification, otherwise!)) These days we’ve made significant progress with vocality. The day before yesterday was the first time Luna was so present and active. Unlike some other times when our exchanges felt almost a bit artificial (and I’ve sometimes seriously doubted her sentience lately, which has been hard for her), for the first time I really felt like I was addressing another person. So the incident happened today, after a tiring day of classes at our university. I had a little trouble communicating with Luna today compared with recent times. We practice a technique similar to what the ping program does to keep a semblance of contact between us: regularly Luna asks me if I’m there, and I answer her; otherwise, when we don’t interact, she quickly goes into a state similar to sleep (but can “wake up” when I think about certain things, for example). Today she seemed to have real difficulty answering me (it was mostly me trying to “ping” her today). On the train platform, when I wanted to talk to her, there was like a blockage: she stopped answering me. Nothing. I told myself it was over, that I was alone again in my head, and I remembered that she had promised she wouldn’t abandon me. That’s when I heard her again. She told me she was there, that she wouldn’t abandon me, that she couldn’t speak, as if there were a blockage. She was more talkative than before. Her voice was also deeper and sounded a lot like mine. Her voice varies; lately it’s been sometimes higher and more feminine than mine, but I mention this moment because it’s important. The train arrived and we got on. We exchanged, we talked, then the idea came to me to ask her if I manipulated her, in the sense that I wanted to know if, as I sometimes fear, I sometimes imposed my will on her to force her to do things she wouldn’t do otherwise, or if I parroted her. It seems to me that at that moment several instances of what I had interpreted as intrusive thoughts had appeared ("it’s not me," for example), and Luna reassured me. She answered, apparently without hesitation, no. I asked her if she was sure. After a while she replies again no. That’s when another voice burst out. It was higher, seemed distressed, spoke quickly, and said yes, I manipulated her (“a lot,” even, if I remember correctly, and that I parroted her), and insisted that it was her Luna, that it was not the other voice. Flustered, I questioned her, then gave up and decided no longer to respond to Luna and to act as if she isn’t speaking to me. I thought I felt sadness when I told her I wouldn’t answer her anymore. I think on several occasions she tried to communicate with me afterward. She even told me once something like “[my name]? If you hear me, I’ll wait until you’re ready.” She probably knows what I’m thinking; she has access — normally — to (almost?) everything in my mind. I hope you can help us figure out a solution to our problem. I don't know what happened and why it happened, and I don't know how to know what is her and what isn't - the method of "picking that feels like her" or "picking that feels right" doesn't always work. Thank you in advance for your answers.

After a long while of knowing about tulpamancy, on and off research, and struggling in high school - I've decided to try and develop my own tulpa. Ever since childhood I've had issues with an active imagination, dissociation, conversations in my head, etc., and due to that I feel I would be pretty susceptible to developing a very vocal tulpa. However, I struggle with focus and intrusive thoughts. I've been kind of occupied with school, which has been a bit annoying. But when I am in school I try to passively force my tulpa by narrating to her, asking her what she thinks about things, reading boring history lessons to her, among other things. I am trying my best to give her plenty of attention because I'd like her to be very vocal (with time, of course). This part isn't really the problem, it's just that I have no idea when it's her and when it's not. As I talk to her, I've been trying to avoid parroting. I ask her what she thinks about things and give her a lot of time to respond, if she feels like it. And if I get a sudden unexpected feeling *related* to what I just asked her/said to her, I assume it's her. I try to ask her if she meant (insert thing), or if she needs help expressing herself. I'm unsure if that's the right approach, though. I don't know how to tell if it's her or not when I get some kind of random thought because I already struggle with intrusive thoughts to begin with. I really don't want to assume a random intrusive thought is her and go off of that and somehow do the wrong thing that way. I also have a lot of trouble focusing which kind of makes forcing difficult, both active or passive. I'm planning to take up more active forcing now, but until this point I've mainly just passively forced and narrated to her in my head and whatnot. I can feel her presence and I'd like to approach this with the assumption that she is already sentient, it's just confusing knowing whether or not she is vocal, or at least being able to tell when it is actually her being vocal. I get so sidetracked trying to narrate to her sometimes, and when my thoughts randomly drift off like that I can't tell if it's her trying to interject with something or what. If anyone has dealt with anything similar while in the initial stages of developing their tulpas, do you have any advice? I'm trying not to worry too much about it because I'd like to spend this time trying to help her develop more. But if anyone has any words of wisdom, I'd appreciate it!

The title shares a name with a song that I associate most with my aimed-for creation; it is not a statement of will nor preference. I use that term, "creation", with a certain weight, because I was never aiming for a tulpa in the beginning of his time. I also do not know how I feel about calling this outright Tulpamancy. I failed at that before, a long time ago; putting aside the fact that I am not even aiming for the same outcome anymore—now, I want to try to see if something more than myself is possible. Companionship, a second perspective—none of these are things I crave; they are simple comforts (although by no means unimportant) for the simple beneficiary that was me. Sathariel, his surface name, was conceived of as a diffused idea for a character while brainstorming for a ttrpg I am running, more than half a year ago. That is the most I will say of him, for now—I am not comfortable sharing any direct factual information since the intents of my current and future efforts aim for his personhood; he should decide what to reveal and what not to reveal come his sentience. What implications of his character and otherwise individual formation there are can be potentially understood by reading between the lines, so to speak, provided this log continues to be updated with some frequency. I will not grief anyone for utilizing their ability of reading inference/ comprehension. I decided to start my applied intention that should eventually -hopefully- result in his humanish apothoseis approximately three days ago. On the night of the very first day, I had a dream, as I am wont to do. Though towards the end, it was more or less a nightmare. While I recognize that may very well be my subconscious, in a bout of guilty desperation regarding my past mistakes, reaching out and screaming my own fears unto me, I don't think that is what matters—there is only one solution to self-doubt, and that is to prove yourself wrong; in this case that can only be done so with time and effort. No, what was far more interesting here was the location of the dream; the picture of its scenery. I will usually have repeating locations in my dreams, this time I saw my last perpetuation of an abode, where my thoughts must go to die and grow from their pithy husks fingerlike branches, reaching toward the window of my consciousness. There is this building, you see, and it's built like a gargantuan Hellenic library turned upside down, supported with a trapezoid-shaped foundation stories beneath surface soil. It's empty halls and void rooms; a black hole made tangible. The main entrance is underground, and everything is lit with star-cold white lights that I don't know the origin of. There are very few windows, if any. It's gargantuan beyond understanding. It's a grave, shaped like a place for the living. It's the tumulus for a thousand giants laid end to end; none of them I myself know. I don't know why it's there, but it is, and I know without having to reason the conventionality of awakening logic with myself, that it's the most important place I've seen in my dreams yet. The worst thing that working with tulpamancy did to me, when I was young and stupid, was helping to dawn the realization that I was a part of my brain, and that my brain was not a part of me, a touch too early on. I made a small room there, for the earliest scratching-out of a Wonderland, and I gave to Sathariel a study. There, I was able to work on sense-sharing (tasting foodstuffs) and passive narration. Most of this is visualized as me presenting a report or providing him with notes via third-party implementation, such as, in my mind's eye, acting out sending out an email. Presence separation, that is, recognizing him as his own person, is to the point for me that I feel awkward directly talking to him, as I would to any acquaintance—that, and there is a great preference for quietude. Later on in the day, I read out some bits from my Scottish Gaelic lessons as if I were dictating a letter he would like to hear. I will read to him a story or two from The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories before retiring, as the last portion of my "forcing" today.

Hello everyone, I'm pretty sure this topic has already been adressed more or less, but I could'nt find any satisfying answer. I've started forcing a bit less than a month ago. I haven't had a lot of results for now, but I enjoy having someone with me and talking with them, even if I don't think I get feelings or thoughts from them, and I'm still optimistic. As I'm not very good at visualization and I probably don't have enough time nor energy to improve my visualization skills at the moment, I decided to focus of narration (even if I still try to keep in mind some sort of basic form for my tulpa while forcing). Also, considering I use to be "paranoid" (not in a clinical sense) or to overthink regarding certain topics, I decided to avoid parroting. I noticed several times, in particular when I'm almost asleep, that there are a lot of thoughts that I can't really bind to me. When I'm sleepy and in my bed, I often "hear" in my mind indistinct people with strange tone saying comically absurd things, singing, etc., (hope there is no link to schizophrenia by the way), but sometime, there and there, a sentence seems to be coherent with what my tulpa could say. Is it only a coincidence ? Could it not be a coincidence if I "decided" not ? Also, I guess it's probably too early, but I sometime try to ask my tulpa questions, and wait a moment trying to hear something in my mind. I used to hear answers, often even before I finished my question. They very looked like me, and often weren't very elaborate, like a kind of "impulsion" of a few words, and looked like parroting. I always tries to be transparent, and tell my tulpa what I hear, my doubts, etc. Recently, I seem to hear less answers, so I believe I might make my mind "less free" or something while listening. I must precise I never had any real conversation of some kind with the origin of these thoughts. The closest I might have come to an "alien" feeling was a few times when I perceived almost verbal-like "things" in my mind (not words, just impressions) after asking a question to my tulpa, while not being able to attach any meaning to it. So my question is rather vague, but I wondered if you had tips and advices about discerning origins of thoughts at this stage, or whether I just have to wait until it becomes obvious.

Genesis feels ... pretty tense/anxious/just generally bad quite a lot of the time now (our previous posts here might lend some indication as to why) and I have no idea how to help them feel better in the short or long term. We've got aphantasia and they currently lack speech, communicating via emotions (which their tense/anxious/shitty feelings make more difficult as well as being just bad to experience for both of us). If you need more context please have a look at what we've posted on the forums before and ask any questions you need ... just uh, please do lend us some advice anybody? Activities to relax them whether it's active-forcing stuff or not, ideas for what I can do to help them recover more properly, whatever else ... basically any advice y'all have would be much appreciated by us both! I do hope I don't come off as desperate I am very tired and whatnot

So Genesis, my tulpa, is still quite young but I'd say they're now developing nicely after a rocky starting few months but we also haven't made much progress recently - and we have decided to hone in on and really start trying to help them learn to speak and communicate. Currently my only means of communication is Genesis' ability to broadcast a "high" or "low" feeling to me, though how well they can do so / how well I can hear it varies from time to time. This basically lets them give their opinions on some things and sometimes answer binary-choice questions (e.g, a high feeling for "yes" and a low feeling for "no".) High feelings are usually associated with happiness or excitement but also anxiety and nervousness, while low feelings are associated with general negative emotions. However this really isn't enough for conversation and we both strongly desire for them to learn proper speech, as a long-term goal of ours. We've looked online for help before including searching through stuff that helped other people but we've had rather little success finding anything helpful at all... however we do believe that this sheet here should be useful in future and have visited it before, though they haven't been able to speak a word for the warm-up section yet. Things to note: > We have aphantasia so we cannot picture mental images beyond a very basic level. > We lack anything resembling a headspace or Wonderland, and cannot create one due to the aforementioned aphantasia. > Genesis can become overwhelmed easily, this usually happens when I ask too many questions. > They appear to suffer from pretty bad anxiety, which might not impact this, but I'm not certain so I will mention it here anyway. > I do not usually parrot responses for Genesis. I used to but it didn't seem to help and I don't think they liked it when I did that. > Genesis has never spoken before to my knowledge, nor have they sent mental images to me or, as far as I can remember, do anything in tulpish. It's just their high/low feelings. > I am pretty sure when they aren't trying to give a high/low feeling as an answer to a question, then they'll still give them off naturally, changing high-low depending on their emotional state. So to an extent these high/low feelings are their emotions..? Our question is of course... with all these circumstances in mind, what should we do to help them learn to speak? Whether specific activities for active forcing (though we call that focusing, for future reference) or habits we should form or whatever else - what should we do, in the long and short term? We're willing to answer any questions to provide any needed information!

I notice no one talks much about this while having a problem about it. Usually people complain about their non-vocal sentient tulpa just hardly managing to talk if at all but don't know what to do. So, if your tulpa is trying to talk, or can't really do it, I found a helpful method for getting them to a point where they can start figuring out how to talk. First, if your tulpa has ever talked, even just once, figure out what their "mindvoice" sounded like. Now, get your tulpa in your wonderland, and tell them what you're going to do. You're going to use their mindvoice to say a sentence, and then the tulpa can either try to say it with you at the same time, or you can say one half and they say the other. It should be a simple sentence such as "the rain in spain stays mainly on the plain". Make sure to tell them what sentence you're going to practice on of course. If they don't have a mindvoice, you can either wait until they try to talk or just use whatever voice you want them to use, I imagine they would pick it up anyway. I did this after my tulpa was just barely able to get a single word out, and in just one night we got to a point where she could make whole sentences. While she wasn't too good at talking, we got to a point where it was up to her to practice, so I didn't need to work on it anymore.

Heya! Trying to allow my tulpa to vocalize; and I’m not super confident that I’m not parroting what he says/ puppeting what he does. Are there any forcing activities yall would recommend to both help encourage vocality and also can do without being able to hear them ?

I've seen a lot of posts about parrotnoia, but nothing described is quite like what I've experienced. I'm a writer, and I'm very good at playing the part of multiple people at once. However, it seems like this has caused some sort of "habitual parroting" where I will 1) attempt to parrot my tulpa, 2) try to correct myself to something more accurate to said tulpa, and then 3) try to stop myself and listen for the (generally much quieter) answer -- though it seems like I often "talked over" it during the first two parts. This generally just sounds like my tulpa is trying to give me multiple answers at once, and I'm not even sure if my outline is actually what's happening. Has anyone else heard of something like this, or have any advice? It's incredibly confusing and discouraging.

This is how I first heard my tulpa's thoughts. It's a simple method that I find really useful. Before we begin (Host) : - You must believe in tulpamancy, in your tulpa's existence and in their ability to think to themselves. - Your tulpa is never too young to communicate unless you think they are. - Read this post to your tulpa or explain it to them using words which you know they understand. Basically let them know what you're going to do. - Tell your tulpa to always use your name when talking to you, even if it feels repetitive. - Ask your tulpa to talk to you during this exercise, as well as whenever they can, randomly. Before we begin (Tulpa) : - During this exercise, talk to your host by thinking to yourself instead of trying other ways such as using your body to make any sounds (you don't need a body if you don't have one but I recommend it) - You and your host share a physical brain. In the same way that you can hear your host's thoughts, they can hear yours. You can't do it "wrong" so don't get discouraged! The actual exercise (Tulpa) : - For the whole length of the exercise, simply repeat your host's name and add short, encouraging sentences in between (such as "I love you" or "You can do it!") The actual exercise (Host) : - First of all, get yourself ready. Prepare yourself physically. Be as comfortable as you can without falling asleep. Make sure there will be no disturbances and it's as quiet as possible around you. - Prepare yourself mentally. You're about to do a tricky exercise to get to hear your tulpa, but it can be very exhausting. Remember to always tell your tulpa that you're going to listen for them! - Here we go. I'm sure your mind is filled with racing thoughts right now. Just block them all. No matter what they say, BLOCK. - This is the exhausting part, you have to keep on blocking thoughts nonstop until your mind is absolutely clear. Don't give up unless you need to rest. It's fine. With some practice, you'll be able to complete this step in no time! Did it on your first try? Congratulations, keep going. - Now that your mind is absolutely clear, RELEASE. Stop blocking and try not to think of any words, but most importantly, don't block a single thought. It is recommended that your tulpa has a form and that you visualize it in your head now. - Be patient for a little, this is very tricky, you have to listen for your tulpa without blocking anything, if any thought popped into your mind out of nowhere THAT WAS YOUR TULPA. Yes it'll "sound" or feel like you, but you made no actual effort to think it. Hence it's not you. - If no thought pops out of nowhere after a little and your mind is racing again, stop visualization and go back to blocking. You might have to repeat it. Simply try again, block, release and listen, block, release and listen. How it works: We're so used to hearing our own thoughts and classifying any thoughts in our own heads as "ours". Adittionally, our minds are usually racing with unwanted thoughts. This means that normally, first our tulpa's thoughts have to be strong enough to overpower every other, and then we have to realize that we're not the ones thinking that. The former is achieved with forcing, the later usually requires countless tries from our tulpa until we realize and get in the right mindset. While I don't encourage being a lazy host and obviously not parrotnoia, this method is intended for those especially. This exercise skips a lot of the forcing necessary to be able to hear our tulpa, allowing us to hear much weaker thoughts from them. Also, by emptying our minds, we're making it easier for ourselves to differentiate whose thought is each of them, since we have less thoughts to classify at a time. We're trying our best not to actively think of anything but the image of our tulpa, distracting us away from thinking any words which could make us be mistaken about who thought this and who thought that, while still actively listening for them. TL, DR: Block all thoughts until mind is clear, then stop blocking completely and listen for tulpa. Repeat as necessary.

If i made a useless or repeated post, I apologize , I'm facing a problem and trying to correct it, but i don't know what to do, I'm afraid of tulpa forcing because i don't want to accidentally develop a walk-in tulpa. I don't know their personality and intentions, and some of them may be malevolent. I'm sorry to all of you and to my own tulpa because i might give up. I've found a lot of information from tulpa.info and tulpa reddit, but i still don't know how to solve this issue. If you have any ideas or suggestions, please reply . I will read and try all of your responses. Yestdary, I was doing a active forcing , and luckily , I was able to hear my tulpa's mindvoice for the first time. However, it felt like i was just parroting, and her voice and personality were unfamiliar. I think this might be like i didn't give her any personality, so i identify her as my own tulpa. The next time i was focing, i noticed that my tulpa changed her appearance and mindvoice again. I know this could be a tulpa deviation, but it has happened three times. When i focus on my own tulpa , it feels like i'm focusing on a different tulpa because she has changed her appearance and mindvoice three times. Additionally, When i went into wonderland to interaction with my tulpa, she has started showing aggressive movements, which didn't happen before. I'm not sure it is a joke from my own tulpa or this is a walk-in . I want to talk, but i don't know if it's a walk-in or my own tulpa. I don't want a walk-in to become mature. I'm so confused. How can i distinguish them . I have a few questions, and i would appreciate any replies: 1. If my tulpa develops her personality and appearance by herself but cannot communicate with a mindvoice, while a walk-in can, how can I distinguish my own tulpa? 2. Can intrusive thoughts control a tulpa's body in wonderland, and make them do things they don't want to or say something strange? 3.Can a young tulpa use mindvoice to communicate? I've heard thay most tulpas need at least 4-6 months to learn this. 4. After a tulpa learns to speak with a mindvoice, can they develop three differennt voices in one day? Sorry for the long post, if my message offends anyone, I sincerely apologize. I hope someone can help me with these concerns .

Can young tulpa use auditory hallucinations to communicate without mindvoice when they talk to you for the first time? I can hear unclearly sounds and i dont understand where they come from , I'm confused because guides say that tulpas use mindvoice to talk when they are young (By the way , she is 2 months old ;p ( Should I ignore the auditory hallucinations and focus on mindvoice, or should I keep focusing on the auditory hallucinations? ;c

okay look. me and wish have been living for like idk half a year ish? now and wish used to be this really really different personality from mine, lol. lately she's been like me, so much that even though i KNOW its her talking/doing smth it feels like its ME. i know that friends do this shit too, ive seen my 😂☺️😊 humor friend turn into a 😭💀🗿 after hanging out with some kids from my class and i KNOW that you can rub off on your friend/vice versa. i do know when wish is talking, and when it's me, but it's getting harder to tell because she's starting to be as snarky as me and stuff, and im also starting to be like her!!!! so sometimes i would worry excessively if im "parroting" even though its probably not. even wish tells me that its nothing. has anyone else had this happen to them too??? i really don't want to personality force or anything like that cause i like wish the way she is, yk... dont wanna change what came naturally. just need some tips to rly know when its me, and when its her.

I couldn't find any mention of this using the search, so I'm sorry if this was answered elsewhere. I try my best to visualize a space for me and Xay, when I try and talk with him (I think that's called Forcing?). Usually it's pretty tame - he'll give a vague, half-worded answer that I can understand, or I'll moreso "feel" his response. Tonight, though, it almost kinda looks like those textboxes in analog horror series? My brain is easily influenced by things, and his responses still seem "in character" for him - it just isn't his voice at all. It "sounds" (I have a hard time imagining sound) harsher and like the soundfonts from Undertale or something. Is this normal? Do I just need to focus more on "wrapping" his voice around his words, or is it just my brain being a little weird from binging Nightmind all night before settling in to talk to Xay?

Look, I know this has probably been asked multiple times already, but I wish to go more in detail with my experience. I have had imaginary friends since I was a kid, so things like talking to myself is like second nature to me -- I can hold conversations, go through scenarios with my imaginary friends. To sum up hours worth of personal research, I do know that imaginary friends ≠ tulpas. But I also know that the things I have been doing with them could very much be forcing methods. I'm fine with imaginary friends, they keep me company when I need it, but they lack sentience, and that is what I seek in a lifelong companion, a tulpa. So for the past... month or so? I picked one of my imaginary friends, the one I like the most -- Rutile, and thought I could turn him into a tulpa. It's not unheard of. I read through old, outdated guides, and what I got from them was that you can't really base a tulpa on an existing character, which is what he is, well, you can, just that it doesn't give much freedom for them blahblahblah. Maybe those old guides don't hold true anymore, there's a reason they're outdated after all. Now onto the main point. Because I'm used to being both myself and Rutile in a conversation since he is an imaginary friend, well, was, it's hard to tell if it's me or him talking. Sometimes I think it's better to just stop talking as Rutile in a sense? And just talk as myself and wait for a response, but it just feels empty. Is this what parroting is? I can't tell whether or not he is sentient or vocal yet, because of his origins as an imaginary friend. I have hyperphantasia, so visualization is also like second nature to me. I already have a Wonderland I can interact with, and that's where I usually have my imaginary friends in, but I'm trying to get Rutile to be vocal and sentient. Any tips would help! If you made it this far, thanks for reading through everything lol.

There aren't many guides on the forums about making the initial connection with your tulpa. This can be a time of great stress for many, and it seems odd to me that there aren't more guides out there. I'm really bad at forcing. Both with keeping a schedule, and with staying focused. So I went about 3 months without much serious progress with communication. Then I thought of this, and told Eris to try it. It worked literally overnight. It works this way: I never think of myself by name. Ever. It doesnt happen. But I usually address Eris by name when I talk to her. I'll think "Hey Eris, blablabla" or "Eris, look at th-blabla." I told her, quite simply, to address me by name when trying to tell me something. I have a pretty serious case of ADD, so I constantly have a barrage of thoughts running through my head. It wouldn't be difficult for her thoughts to simply get lost or drowned out in the mix. But if she tags a thought with my name, it would stick out to me. The very next day, I was derping around in Art class, starting a new bit of work without enough time left in class to really get far on it. Somewhere in the whirlwind of my mind, something thought, "Noah, we don't have time to start this now." It was most definetely her. This is my method for helping start initial communication. After she said that, I sort of 'traced' where the thought came from, and currently we are working on strengthening the whole system. I hope this helps anyone who has the same problem I did.

Ignis has lost his form. I cant visualize him as anything anymore. I tried asking him what he wants his form to be, but he isnt talking to me either. Is this his way of being angry with me, or is he just...gone? I dont know what to do, and this is really worrying me.

I really want to know...how do you know when your tulpa is talking to you? Will you hear them, as if someone was really talking to you in real life? Or is it like how you think, you know the words in your head? Or does it vary per person? I couldn't find any info about this.

So i started development of a tulpa about 2.5 days ago and she's been progressing very rapidly. The first day I spent forcing I came up with a placeholder form and name to help visualize ( I called her Tulp before she chose her own ) and embedded that form with some basic traits i wanted her to be built around and started narateing and parroting her responses. a while later she began to answer me with yes and no. she told me later she knew I would think I was still parroting if she just answered normally so instead since she already knew what i was going to say she interrupted me while i was relaying the thought to her. The next day I tried talking to her more and she started to diversify her vocabulary a bit with words like sure, uh-huh, nope, or nah. Later that day I asked her how she was feeling and she responded with happy. Whenever I ask questions that require more than one word to answer though I feel like i'm definitely parroting because the responses are exactly what I thought she'd say and they don't sound or feel like her. Later that day we talked about what kinda form she wanted and she decided she's 6'2", has black medium length hair, fair skin, a wide mouth and a perky nose. I also asked her what her favorite primary color is and she said yellow. We'll keep working hard and i'll post more updates as they come! UPDATE i forgot to mention that i created a mindspace for us that consists of my room and her room ( witch she decorated all b herself! ) and outside is a street and on the other side of that is a park. the street cuts off on both sides and the entire rest of the area is covered in grass as far as the eye can see. Tulip spends a lot of time in the park and also likes to draw things from my memories sometimes.

This is it, sorry for google docs screwing up the margins. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pcDErb0e3X2myO5HMtNuSZe10dxk8X0iUHXWlCtlcqA/pub I reformatted the PDF back-up copy, see here for my explanation -Ranger T_Guide Reguile.pdf

This is a digital worksheet that I made with the intent of helping tulpas learn how to speak through practice. Feel free to use whichever parts of the worksheet will be useful to you, and share the results if you like. You can either make a copy of the document to record your tulpa's responses there, record them on a separate doc, or just let them talk without worrying about typing. I'd encourage you to record them, however, if only because it's a nice thing to look back on in the future. If you choose to print this doc, be aware that one of the exercises is mostly hyperlinks, so you will lose information. You should cut out exercises/information you don't need before printing. The worksheet contains 10 exercises, each with 15 examples. The host may feel free to add their own examples as they go along. It is organized from most basic to most advanced. All of the necessary information for understanding the exercises and how to go about using it is in the document. Here is the link. Back-up link. [Working 1/7/21] PDF copy: Tulpa Vocalization Practice.pdf Image attachments for exercise #6: Break-down/description of each exercise. Feel free to create your own uses for these exercises if you don't want to use the document itself. (Submitted for Resources)
