FurryBlueNaki October 15, 2014 Share October 15, 2014 I've read you have to have silence and a dark room to force actively. But I do fine visualizing my tulpa even when the clock chimes every 15 minutes, and my mom comes in the room and talks to herself (and curses). And with my laptop open, with the screen lit up. The light doesn't bother me. But the chimes do distract me, but I get back into the motion soon enough. My mom talking in the same room is hard though. But I do fine with eyes closed and don't need the room completely dark. My mom's tv is on in the other room as well. How do others force with distractions? Chance, an anthro husky, wolf or fox.

Guest amber5885 October 15, 2014 Share October 15, 2014 If it works for you then do it. There is no one way to force. Just find what suits you best I personally HAVE to have some kind of background noise or music to active force.

Linkzelda October 16, 2014 Share October 16, 2014 I almost thought the question would be related to distractions within the mind's eye imagination. But for external noises, I usually listen to some kind of white noise, or binaural and/or isochronic beats. I also have a sleep mask on me, and I usually take a few seconds to make sure my fingers are in place on the keyboard before doing active forcing, or just image streaming if I'm not involving my tulpas into the experience. I can probably do active open-eye visualization with distractions like TV for maybe 15 minutes, or more before wondering how I would look like awkwardly if someone came and saw me in an almost blank state; I mostly confine myself in a room, and make an excuse that I'll be taking a 90 minute nap, or something. But lately, I've been used to distractions since they can be a source to turn the events, or add onto what's already happening. If there's a lot of noises from multiple angles that's not some hallucinatory/imaginary effect my mind is rendering out, then I don't really bother testing my resilience at that point, and wait for circumstances where I can block both my sight, and dampen my hearing of external sounds.
