Meeting a fellow tulpamancer

[cruse]

I know one, never told him I have it though.

Also, he's the one I first heard the word tulpa from.

[QB2]

Yeah, he was just like "This tulpa stuff on the internet is bullshit" and that was pretty much it. I didn't comment. QB laughed about how funny it was that he had been sitting on his shoulder at the time, like someone in a movie denying the existence of ghosts as one appears behind him.

I talked about it with a friend of mine. Turns out he have one, he just didn't knew there was a name for them.

My friend is the one who introduced me to tulpas. It all sounded very familiar, and I realized that i'd had an underdeveloped tulpa for years without knowing it

That made my day.

I've talked with a few people about tulpae, and some claim to have them.

[Guest Anonymous]

I was introduced to tulpae by a friend of mine, and I told my sisters about tulpae in a really vague way, but never met anybody with a developed tulpa (at least to my knowledge).

The spaghetti would be so much. Too much.

 

I think the closest I have ever come to was some old people starting a conversation about the imaginary friends of kids and pondering why they create them and such. Colleague then wonders the same thing after the old people stop and also wonders if the kids who do that have something wrong with them or what. I didn't even take a part in that conversation, so no spaghetti stories coming from me today. Then again, also heard that this colleague's boyfriend is actually seeing hallucinations that are creepy and not very liked by him or anything, so maybe she's seen some of the bad sides of things that are not really there being there for you personally. I guess to that I could at least say that it's only a problem or a disorder when it, you know, actually gets in the way and could even potentially be helpful. So just because her boyfriend sees shit doesn't necessarily mean he's insane and people shouldn't automatically think so (or at least in a bad way...), and I guess such viewpoint was well received as this subject obviously was pretty touchy and probably one of those she shouldn't have talked about, but hey, sometimes you gotta. Hopefully they'll be able to think about the whole hallucination thing together and see what has to be done. Today's off-topic day.

Good thing that DSM-V is adding a thing that says it's only a disorder if it negatively affects you.

The dude I know who knows of tulpae, who I THINK is on this site... He's moving. Still, I got the word from him, and I appreciate him. Thank you, [redacted], thank you.
