Is there a point where a tulpa can 'kill' you?

no.

 

 

 

no.

I am fairly certain that tulpae can become strong enough that you cannot 'kill' them more than temporarily by any means, at least if they don't agree to go. At least regarding ignoring, Atasco is notable since he went away for quite some time, only to return, though there wasn't an active intention to kill him. There are some other instances of tulpae a host tried to kill and couldn't, though many or all of these cases sound more like DID, though I suspect that keeping a tulpa around for a long period will create something like DID, but probably without the involuntary switching and memory loss that make it a disorder.

 

As for a tulpa "killing" the host or the host otherwise "dying" in their mind, that is certainly possible in DID. And at least IMO the original consciousness dying is enough to make the condition a disorder.

{Kevin (a human) says: No, a tulpa cannot kill you. You have free will - that trumps anything a tulpa can do.

 

I've been convinced by my tulpas that their view of switching is most likely correct - long term switching is unfair to the tulpa. Us humans really should live our own lives (with the help and company of a tulpa if you choose to). It is going too far to expect your tulpa to take over and do all the work.

 

In my case, I'm just grateful that I had help when I most needed it. So, I'd say the reverse is true in my case - tulpas can't kill you but in the right circumstances they can stop you dieing. }

Tulpas have free will as well, and we can "kill" them.

That would only be if the switching is non-consensual. In which case, where the hell would the host get off, forcing their tulpa to assume all of their own burdens, and responsibilities?
