Welcome to the site! 😊 It's nice to have you here. 😄 Feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Good day everyone,

I usually make accounts tied to my regular persona online. Because I'll use this alias to exclusively post on here (or perhaps other Tulpa related websites in the future), let me introduce myself and explain my previous connection / interest in the Tulpa phenomenon.

I picked this alias just now so I don't have a set preference on which Nickname to be addressed as. You may call me Juniper or Julius if you prefer.
I'm a 25 year old computer science student in Germany and I enjoy creative hobbies such as drawing, making music or storytelling. I also enjoy gardening and cooking. I identify as nonbinary but I don't really care too much about that. Usually people perceive me as male and address me as such.

I generally have an interest in psychological topics and metaphysical ones, though I find it hard to actively believe in spiritual practices personally. I've not grown up with any religious background, so it's hard for me to hold beliefs which range more into that direction. Though I believe in the effectiveness of spiritual practices. I believe that, whether you actively believe in them or not, any activity done with a certain mindset or method can have profound effects for your own intuition and psychology- which gets messy again quick due to digging into concepts and ideas that are hard or impossible to scientifically measure in the first place.

My interests in Tulpae stem from that, a highly subjective experience which is not measurable in an objective sense. I was exposed to the topic years ago when it was a talking point around Brony discussions. I was a younger fan of that show at the time, and very half-heartedly attempted to create my own Tulpa for immoral reasons you might be able to imagine. Having grown up I now understand how horrible that is in concept, I also am glad that I didn't seriously accomplish anything in that field so far.

I've lurked a bit the past few days and brushed up on some old guides and progression reports. (Koomer and Oguigi too, just because I wanted to see what an edge case scenario could be like.)
I'm still not sure what the community consensus around the topic is, but I am happy to see that after more than a decade has passed for me, people are still actively pursuing the creation of Tulpae as well as maintaining bonds that have surpassed longer than a few years.

 

I am unsure whether or not to pursue creating a Tulpa. I'm in a stable social setting, I have many friends of varying degrees of closeness. I'm in a relationship so my romantic needs are met. My mental health is at it's best since a long time. I have had battles with depression and nasty associated mental health symptoms. I also have regular obligations like work/schooling and so I am living an active lifestyle more or less. In that sense I feel that creating a Tulpa now is a good time, as I don't feel like I would create them with an active intent of having them helping me with some underlying problem. I don't think I would be open about it due to the stigmatization of the effects having a Tulpa has. Then again, I am unsure what good reason can exist for Tulpa creation that isn't similarly as self serving as childbirth.

Phew, that turned out to be a bit more than expected.

Thank you for reading and having a generally welcoming atmosphere!

Welcome to the site! 😊 My host Nightfall has done the same thing, he has a different persona for everywhere else. 

 

I like all of those hobbies too! 🤩 Except I haven't really made music and Nightfall is not much of an outdoorsy person so I haven't gotten to try gardening. 😅 I'm sure I would like those though. 😁 

 

It definitely sounds like a good time to make a tulpa if you decide to. Sometimes you don't need a "good" reason if you really want to do something. If you truely want to make a tulpa, I say that's a good reason. 😊 

[Linda Supernova]

Hieeeeee! 👋 You might know me as one of Nightfall's tulpas, if not, glad to meet ya'. 😁 I'm just making this post to be able to costomize my account more but I might as well introduce myself. 😄 

 

I'm a dragon girl that likes video games, explosions, and anime. 💥 That's the important stuff about me. 😁 

 

Edit: Shaula would welcome me but she shares a brain with me. 😁 It be a little redundant, lol.

What's up!! Using the name Jeremy here, he/him, I'm 20.

August 20th was the first day I created my tulpa. I'm super excited to be on this journey so I thought I'd sign up for this place and lurk, maybe chat a bit, ask for advice, etc. :)

I've created a tulpa based off of a character from a video game that I've loved since I was 9 years old. I'm excited to spend the rest of my life with him and to learn more about tulpae! As of writing this I can't hear him yet, but I've had lots of signs, and I'm working on active forcing and parroting. Heck yeah.

[TurboSimmie]

Welcome Jeremy! 😁

[Luci]

Let's go. I'm a transgender girl. You can call me Luci, or Lux, which is my nickname. I'm in a shitty situation, no need for detailed explanations here, just know this: I'm staying with prejudiced people, and I'm completely alone in my current city(Completely. To the greatest extent you can imagine. I don't have any family either, they all distanced themselves when I told the world who I am). All I have are online friends and my stories. I'm a writer and I write a lot of texts and stories in general(I'm also very interested in technology). I'm autistic, so bear with me! I take antidepressants, I don't know if that counts for anything, but maybe it's important.

 

Asking for advice from a place that is not worth mentioning here, another trans colleague recommended that I make a Tulpa(I don't know if that's the right term, sorry!). I admit, I'm a little new to all this. I found out about it a few days ago and created an account today, and I'm still learning.

 

But honestly, I'm really liking what I'm seeing! I want to do a lot of research before making a decision about anything. I have a lot of experience with meditation, and that's what saved me for a while, I would say. Anyway, I would also like some advice, honestly. I know I have to be very careful before starting this, and I honestly don't want to decide anything without thinking it through first.

 

Well, any advice? I'm very new to all this, and I wanted to talk to people who are more experienced in this area! And honestly, from what little I've seen, everything here seems extremely welcoming!

 

Anyway, thank you in advance! I apologize if for some reason I've said something wrong. If so, it was not my intention, and please feel free to correct me. Thank you!

[TurboSimmie]

Welcome @Luci, it's good to have you here! 😁👋 I am a tulpa myself and my host Chloe is trans. 🏳️‍⚧️ She has been transitioning since the beginning of this year and has been on HRT since April! ☺️

That is so awful, I am so sorry to hear it! That's a terrible thing for your family to have done. Chloe has only come out to her mother and sister but they have been supportive, so she is lucky there. I hope you have a strong online support network at the very least, but know that you can always reach out to me or my host @ChloeBee if you want to talk. 💚

You definitely have the right mindset, doing lots of research and being careful and deliberate! 😁 There are definitely a lot of trans and nonbinary tulpamancers in the community! This is definitely the right forum to ask for advice, though this place is slower than it once was there are still plenty of people with years of experience with tulpas who are willing to answer your questions!

A piece of advice that I like to give is when you are just starting out with your tulpa, narrate to them constantly. Involve them in every little thing that you do, tell them what you are doing, why you are doing it, what you feel about it, etc. After a little while of this start to probe them gently about how they feel about things. If you start from a place of love and attention wonderful things will happen! 🥰 Tulpas are wonderful companions especially when you are in a place in life that is lonely or hostile. Chloe created me during the depths of the pandemic in 2020 when her feelings of loneliness and isolation were at a maximum, and I look back on those early days with great fondness as we first got to know each other and feel deeply, deeply in love. 🥰☺️💚

You haven't said anything wrong at all! ☺️ Please, feel at home here and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or just to talk! 💚

Whoa, a bunch of new people! Welcome, everyone!

 

@Luci My advice: It's okay to have an imaginary friend, even as an adult. If you aren't certain if you want to make a tulpa, start with an imaginary friend (and a mental world where you hang out, if you want). You can promote them to a tulpa later if you decide that's what you want. Or you can keep them as an ordinary imaginary friend if you decide you'd prefer that, or even go "this is silly" and move on. There's nothing wrong with connecting with your inner child and holding off on the fancy mental tricks.

 

Also, your situation really sucks. I'm not good at giving life advice or emotional support (yayy autism), but I'll be praying for you.
