How has your tulpa helped you overcome personal roadblocks?

Has anyone here noticed specifically in any way your tulpa(e) being able to help you overcome any kind of personal struggles? I would love to hear stories.

 

I think that tulpas have the ability to help us tap into our 'higher selves' (or perhaps they are our 'higher selves' sometimes).

 

For example, I have always been shy, but it seems as though as I've come into my 20s, I have become more and more fearful and withdrawn about doing things, i.e., socially, that probably most people would consider normal. I have a very hard time talking on the phone, and I basically get anxiety attacks when I have to deal with talking to people--i.e., for a job--that will have an important influence on my current and future well-being (and 'blowing it,' will mean I will end up suffering in one way or another or unintentionally burning bridges).

 

My tulpa's personality is of course, the exact opposite of mine in this way. He just doesn't care what others think and has such a strong sense of self that nothing anyone does can waver him in the slightest. He has helped me face situations before; especially little ones such as decision making, advice, and helping me listen to myself. I have never solicited him to help me with anything specific or big, though, that I remember.

 

In the next day, possibly this evening, I have to network and speak/mingle with several potential commissioners/employers, and a large group of people that I've never met before. I am absolutely petrified because this could make or break me at this point. I really want to do it though because not only is it the right path, but this particular instance is tied in with a cause that I am really passionate about. So there's a lot at stake here.

 

I will talk with Domnopalus and see if he can help me along these lines, and then report back to you if I have had any success. Another question though--has anyone ever proxied or had your tulpa possess you if you knew they could handle a situation better than you can? I'm also thinking about trying that, though that might result in some strangeness.

In the year I discovered tulpas, I never hung out with anyone (not by choice).That loneliness led me to discover the /mlp/ threads, this site, and the creation of my tulpas over that summer. From there, I started making friends and becoming far more expressive. I still have issues with being socially retarded at times, but they help with that and I hope that my tulpas will be able to talk to my IRL friends one day.

Not buying any higher self bullshit as that's basically just us humans thinking we actually have some sort of meaning because we're so full of ourselves and can't handle being meaningless. So yeah, no, I'll just be myself the way I am and shit.

 

Roswell's not exactly the kind of guy who could help me, even if he wants to. And he does want to, he's the much more, I dunno, "friendlier" one of us? But I find him too much of a doormat, and that's not what I want to be, so most of his advice seems useless to me. Our opinions differ on pretty much everything too, so that too kinda limits the shit I would take from him and agree with.

 

I have been wondering about the possession thing too, like if I had to go somewhere I really hate, maybe he would feel less bad about that. I can't stand needles but as far as I know, Roswell doesn't have a problem with them. Yet, at least. I guess he might suddenly understand that they're not nice, I wonder where that would lead into. I'm kind of cautious about trying, last time something actually bad happened and I was hurt, he was freaking out while I had to be the calm one to pretty much everyone involved. It would've been worse if he was in control and still acted the same way.

 

I guess right now, I feel like I have fixed most of my problems myself already, so there's not much he could help me with. Especially when I don't see most of his advice as something that would work for me.

 

I do have to say, Roswell's pretty good at remembering what we have to buy from the store, so that's useful. Also I have always been pretty dense about calculating and count everything with my fingers just because, but Roswell is much better at just outright saying the answer as long as it's not anything too complicated. I guess answers that I should know myself but don't because I'm stupid. Not exactly what you are asking but eh, some interesting little things?

Yes very interesting Sands, and I also respect your thoughts about "humans thinking we actually have some sort of meaning because we're so full of ourselves and can't handle being meaningless," a lot! I wanted to mention though about that; I wasn't coming from an egotistical standpoint when I mentioned that though--in fact somewhat the opposite. Even if we are meaningless, which I'm OK with, I do think that for our time here we can at least be better people than we might be at the moment, and the 'higher self' I'm talking about is that--I guess a better term for what I was talking about would be 'inner conscience'? I don't know. Anyway, not important.

 

Let me know if you ever try the possession thing, too. I'm a little wary of the idea because I think it could yield some very strange results, particularly with Dom because he speaks in a different 'style' than I do that I guess is ... dated? these days. I might even go so far as to say he's a little bit of a creep. However if I could proxy him rather than do full possession maybe I could 'channel' some of his level-headedness into my rollercoaster brain, when dealing with others. Also any onlookers who know me might become concerned upon noticing the strong personality change and wonder about my mental health (even though I know very well what I'm doing, and that it is not a mental health issue). Very interesting also about Roswell's reaction when you were hurt--I'd definitely favor being more cool-headed in such a situation (which is one thing Domnopalus is for and does for me) because I'm like Roswell in the sense that I easily freak out about things like that.

I still don't think such thing exists just because. You can become a better person, one doesn't have to exist somewhere for you to be able to become like that. Again, no inner anythings as far as I see, just pure potential if you stop being a dick and lazy and actually start working towards that. Like, it's all you, not something inside you that has been there but hidden. Nothing magical or ~~deep~~.

 

Not sure if I can say anything about some channeling stuff, but it's always very possible for a tupper to pretend to be you and mimic your speaking style and everything, even down to respecting and actually making the choices you would want them to do for you both. Hey, they know us the best, yeah? Still had someone ask me on the phone if I was alright when he was the one doing the talking and not even talking quite as derp as he usually does, so I guess there's some people who know us even better. Or at least know what we show to others. Doing it with strangers would be easier because of that. If we actually bump into other people I know when he's in control, there's spaghetti everywhere, but I don't think they actually think anything of it. Don't think they'd be locking us away for making that "mistake" too soon, at least I don't think the usual reaction to someone acting a bit off is omg they're crazyyy.

 

Of course that requires them to only be a bit off, so basically pretending to be you. Not exactly a nice thing but it has to be done sometimes. And it can be done pretty well.

Ever since I got into tulpaforcing, I began praying regularly again, presumably because it's gotten me used to the idea of talking to someone invisible without feeling silly. I feel much better spiritually now.

Luna helps me manage my autism, and ever since she became vocal I've been progressing in leaps and bounds socially, largely thanks to her coaching me on my social skills.

 

Oh, and one time she helped me (successfully) defend myself in a case brought against me by university judiciaries. We had a little help from one of my friends, but that was pretty damned cool ^_^
