Emotional Responses feeling different?

[Azure_Flame]

So, whenever Moondust sends emotional responses, I don't feel an emotion, instead I feel something like a wave of energy flow from the top of my head to my neck. Is this typical for anyone else, or is it just me?

Whenever mine do, or express something overwhelmingly positive, I may get tingling sensations crawling up my spine, and feel my mind turning to mush for a bit. It's not just you.

I'm the host. What does it mean to merge and split? I feel like I'm in a Chao Garden. I barely have my own identity because I become mush whenever I don't think about my tulpa. It's like I need to be banned from forcing. I'm OCD about loving her and it's pushing us apart.

 

That is how I feel towards my Tulpa.

I usually get the feeling in my chest which sort of spreads. Like just a big burst of feeling that becomes overwhelming. I'm still early in creation- almost two weeks, just note that.

I’m not sure what the intention is for the question, could you expound more on this concern of yours? Maybe you mean something like where the host and tulpa would “merge,” as in some kind of symbolic fusion where their thoughts become one? As for splitting, if you're wondering if they could be autonomous, well, I guess that's one of those things that can happen over time.

There’s a thread you can find below that talks about love overload, and questioning whether or not if an individual can love their tulpas too much. Maybe some of the responses there could alleviate concerns as to why you feel you should be banned from forcing:

Though personally, it feels kind of self-defeating to want to be banned from forcing because of the issues you’ve addressed. I’d say the more attention you give to them, the better, and if you feel insecure about how they may respond (e.g. worrying if they’ll be annoyed), tell them why you go to such lengths to do these things, and maybe this can offer them a chance to be empathetic in your position.

 

I've had awkward feelings for mine in the past in dreams, and in the waking state. Whether it was from friendly romance, to anima references, and other relationship types, it's just one of those things you have to work out with your tulpa. Ask them how they feel in whatever relationship(s) you have with them in particular. The experience of assessing these concerns is just like talking to someone you're intimate, or just very close with.

Glad to hear this. I've had to ask about what she's feeling, so I thought I just wasn't doing something right.

I know this is an ancient thread, but I got the same feeling this morning after only 7 days of tulpamancy, but accompanied by this came a wave of stimulus which I mistook to be some sort of fear reaction on my tulpa’s part at first. I haven’t even been consistent when working on my tulpa, but the night before I worked at least 2 hours on her. I guess this is a wink and a nod to me, or just me getting feedback from her emotions.

 

A side note, if you have tinnitus then the ringing turns into what I can only describe as a prepubescent THX theme for five seconds.
