Schizophrenia

[zeppelin931]

I have paranoid schizophrenia. I'm not on any medicines. I had it for about 2 years. My tulpa is almost a week old.

What's the matter? Oh, you were finished? Well, allow me to retort!

I have paranoid schizophrenia. I'm not on any medicines.

 

Self-diagnosed?

I'm on medication for my schizo-affective disorder. That's schizophrenia and bipolar. The medication makes me normal. I don't hear voices. But I never really "heard" a voice like out there. It was all internal dialogue. I am attempting to create a tulpa, and only have wonderful things to say about him. Though he's brand new, only 3 days in. He's reassured me when I was feeling a bit angry. I'm just concerned the psych medication will keep me from imposing my tulpa later.

 

I get paranoid without my meds though. But I also can feel like I'm in heaven. That's the manic/depressive episodes.

Probably because deliberately making more voices isn't advisable for schizophrenics. If they get malevolent voices coming out of nowhere, then who knows what kind of tulpa they'd end up with? A nasty one, likely. Also, schizophrenia != DID as far as I know.

 

 

Shizo does not '=' to D.I.D! They're both separate disorders and you can't hallucinate with D.I.D, let alone the fact that it's actually caused by trauma.

Err, well, as well meaning as that statement is, it agrees with waffles there. But the thread is more than three years old.

 

Also, some problems. A person with DID is perfectly capable of hallucination, like anyone else, it's traumatic roots are unproven.

 

Don't know what shizo is.

Since this thread has been opened anyway, I'd like to toss some correction at other posters as well.

 

One, one argument relies on the idea that tulpas are hallucinations. Not people. Probably due to the age of this thread. people are less likely to make this error now.

 

Two. Why would a tulpa end up as a part of a psychotic episode? They are people not delusions.

 

Three. That one anonymous poster is using the word psychosis like it's going out of style. But I don't think they know what psychosis is. "every voice in your head is a potential cause of psychosis" Yeah, uh, that sentence is not even wrong it is so bizarre in its implications. I believe the most likely cause of a psychotic episode is stress. But even there, psychosis != psychotic episode.

 

four. Schizophrenia probably has physiological causes. Therefore a schizophrenic creating a tulpa is downwright stupid???

 

!= is a symbol meaning not equals.

[s.] Also, worth noting that is possible to have both. They aren't mutually exclusive.

!= is a symbol meaning not equals.

 

this is the first thing you should've said lol x3

 

before we learned some basic coding stuff we used to use =/= for does not equals, I could see some people not knowing the != thing

I have Schizophrenia Paranoid Type and I have been able to make Tulpas without any kind of problem. None of the Tulpas I have made have ever become negative voices.
