The Changing Tides of Belief

[The Incans]

Hi

I’m Sam (previously child alter Star) I liked being a Tulpa inside (or pretending to be…I am actually one of the hosts of the body) and creating our inner world, recreating our family for our youngest littles and our much loved Walk-ins but I felt like the external host was moving in a direction that meant our inner world was under threat. 

Lily’s a great host (for some situations) but she is easily persuaded by the outside world to go against her own wishes in order to be perceived as NT…which is not entirely her fault she was one of the original teens that got heavily programmed to ‘fit in’ and ‘act normal’ when we were all actually teens (ie body was too). 

Now we know have seperate subsystems I aged up to take over the front so I’ve taken over from the other host we had found and moved right into the back..The DID community seems determined to convince people there aren’t really ‘any others’ its just one person split but for us thats not entirely true as we have both Tulpa’s and alters…however ‘Tulpa’ seems to be a dirty word in the DID community. 

I don’t see why I can’t recognise that even though I maybe just ‘one of the hosts’ that we can also have members of our family that aren’t and are completely seperate and created by us…I know they are as I’m techncially the one that created them and our whole inner world!!! …so it’s time….  time I took over as the main host…. Kitty and Lily have still offered to help and take over for medical appointments (which I still struggle with) cooking and the hugging family and stuff..KItty enjoys that best anyway as she see’s ‘my sibling’ as ‘her son’. (Kitty is a Tulpa, Lily is an Alter)

Anyway I’m starting to ramble (sorry) and forgot the question! ….. which was ….. erm….. oh!  ..yeah…for those of you who also alters ..have you had a situation where other alters have taken over and they’ve been convinced (by society) to forget about the Tulpa’s? ..that you’re just ‘mentally ill’ and won’t be ‘better’ until you’ve stopped believing you have ‘others inside you’?  

I believe the gap is widening between those people previously seen as neurotypical or ‘normal individuals’  CHOOSING to create Tulpa’s and inner worlds and not accepting the medical model - ie that they must have treatment/medication and return to 'not believing’?  

It seems hypocritical to me I mean look how many people in the world believe in a god they’ve never met? do they get told they’re mad? (not unless they believe they are their god I guess!)

Denying people the ability to say this is a real belief that should be as accepted as other belief’s is just going to create a bigger underground movement of those that secretly believe but are scared to admit it in the outside world.  I think this is why I feel (despite knowing some of us were originally formed from trauma) more comfotable identifying as an endogenic system ..although searching on FB I can’t find any groups specifically for Endogenic systems but we’re in a good Tulpa group in there. 

Just would be good to find other systems that are also mixed systems where no-one’s gonna jump down your throat or ban you from posting if you dare to mention the word ’Tulpa’.

 

what do you think?

Hi! I've read your stuff before and thought you all are interesting.

 

I am not a DID system but I have some friends who are DID systems and even mixed systems. So, I can't really answer that question in that way. I've been some hate towards tulpas and a lot of misunderstandings in general. It's pretty sad that a lot of people are against tulpas since they genuinely helped a lot of people.

 

I'd just focus on accepting yourselves as you are now. Your whole system matters and is real regardless of your origins. You are also accepted here too!

 

A lot of people just don't understand that the brain is so complex and plurality itself is a complex thing.

 

I agree it's absurd that people are able to believe in God and that sort of religious/spiritual beliefs but the moment they believe they are systems they automatically diss people who are systems. I've even seen system cringe reddit where they diss people who are systems and don't fit into medical definitions of what plurality is.

 

I agree it would be fun to have more mix systems like that. I think mix systems are quiet common but you'll have to look for those since they are usually hidden.

I love what you said in this quote, in my opinnion you get totally the point in this quote. I think this happens because people are buying what the midia sell as the normal, unfortunately in the past we see that general people always struggle to think for themselves until they suffer some personal crisis or something like that - well at least that's what happened to me in many things - Land

Honestly I agree! I just wanted to add something if you don't mind. I think people should honestly do what they think would help them and if having a Tulpa helps them then they should be able to do it without being hated. I also believe strongly in self improvement so I can agree with all of this. Tulpas honestly understand their host way deeper and may help their host better then anyone else can.

 

People are honestly imo so uninformed about tulpamancy. They always wanna say it's schizophrenia and or DID, or they literally call it cultural appropriation. I spent months probably over a year now researching this topic both on DID, plurality, along with the difference. I also have a history with doing buddhistic practices for years and have a family member whose into Buddhism. Tulpamancy is definitely not from Buddhism (it was inspired by Buddhism and Buddhist do it to summon a an ancestor. It was also called a different name. If you ask Buddhist what tulpas are they'll be confused) since it's both different practices. Similar but different so there's no cultural appropriation. Plus even if is I think religion should be open to anyone who wants to practice it regardless.

[Sam]. Hi guys thanks for answering. I had to be out front alot as our real life dog has been ill and it was hard..He's ok but I really struggle talking with outside world people face to face myself (I'm the one with most autistic traits). 

I really prefer the inner world and focusing on that though I do like to visit the front for fun stuff (playing open world video games to get idea's for our internal holodeck programs - yeah I'm a Trekkie!  :D. ) when it's quiet and 'just us'. 

 

Anyway Nixy has come to my rescue and rallied with past 'social mask' alters to blend and help front with Lily.  Inca  has moved to the front as the new Gatekeeper .. to ensure that I get to 'come and go' freely! .... whenever my fav 80's programs are on or to go play games together. ..she will also get to come back to visit for plenty of breaks.. being a changeling she likes a chance to transform just for fun and relieve built up tension from the front. 

Kitty & Angelo remain a devoted couple and looking after our littles and other damaged/trauma parts for us. Little Bear is starting to develop his own personality and show signs of knowing his likes and dislikes. He's changeling too and very young so maybe quite a while before he decides on his favourite 'base form'. He likes to be a panda or various forms of 'teddy bear' alot though!  😀 ..we're thinking of creating a little bear friend that stays his age for him...when things settle down a bit more in the outside world (still a lot of stress going on to sort through).
