Not forcing while trying to sleep

[Dr. Richtofen]

I'm starting to have this problem lately.

 

I lay down, close my eyes, ready to go to sleep after a long day.... but the vision of my "Wonderland" (Hate the term, honestly) and the full view of my Tulpa just pop in there, and stay there, and I cant get it out of my mind.

 

Dont get me wrong, I love the fact that I can just see her in full detail already whenever I so choose, but I dont want to have my focus on her when I fall asleep, because of all the bad things that could potentially happen.

 

BEd Time is my personal thinking time. I try to get my mind off her by singing a song in my head, or thinking of something entirely different, but the image just seems burned into my mind and thinking of anything else just seems like I am narrating.

 

Take into account that lately I have been tulpaforcing everywhere. Anytime I get the opportunity, I just start to do it. Should I do it less frequently so its not on my mind as much at night?

 

Anyone have any advice for ceasing (almost)all thought before sleeping?

You tell her good night and that you are going to sleep. seriously, just do that. Also, if you dont like wonderland, just call it something else then. "my tuppers house" or "terra mirabilis" if you want to be a latinfag hipster.

I tell her goodnight, and that I am done, but it feels like my mind is still trying to force when I dont necessarily want it to.

 

Tulpaforcing reminds me a lot of the process I used to use to write my stories. I would spend months simply forging out every detail of the scenery, the characters, the plotlines, and everything in my head, near-perfectly. Awake, going to sleep, all the time. (narration is new to me though). So my brain is kinda used to it, and doesn't wanna stop.

 

I eventually do get to sleep with my mind clear. I fall into a (What I can only describe as) a sub-sleep state where I feel like I am dreaming while conscious (not lucid dreaming). I used to rarely get this dream state, but now its every night.

 

Perhaps this is a good thing, maybe?

[Pronas]

No need to worry about it then. Clair is the only tulpa who gets traumatised at stuff.

Some people say that when they force too much they get headaches and can't stop thinking about them for the whole day.

 

TBH it's up to you what to do.

[Dr. Richtofen]

I welcome the headaches. They arent really painful to me (I used to get really bad migrains, so compared to that its nothing) Its somewhat euphoric even.

 

I like that I am able to think about my tulpa throughout the day without necessarily trying hard to, but I just dont want anything negative to happen to her. I love her.

Dude, if you can think of nothing but your tulpa and you love her, then why should anything bad happen?

 

I say just chill about it.

I use a specific signal to explicitly start and end tulpaforcing sessions. This lets my tulpa when to tune in and when to not.
