Using Tulpa to Heal Humans of Sicknesses

[BestOne]

Can Tulpa be used to heal human sicknesses ranging from cortico-basal ganglionic degeneration and other dreaded human diseases?

I doubt it, but I suppose it's possible. There haven't been any studies on how tulpas affect the brain. We also don't know what causes CBGD, so it's possible that having a tulpa may help. Parkinsonism is the most treatable part of CBGD, and it's treated with drugs. Some people have reported that their tulpas can simulate the effect of drugs, so it's possible that tulpas can help there. I also wouldn't be too terribly surprised of tulpas could help with alien hand syndrome. But we can't know any of this for certain, and probably won't for a very long time, considering how rare CBGD is, and how little scientific interest there is in tulpas.

To be honest I don't know about physical illness but I do know that they can help with mental illness but not neccisarily in the way you would think.

 

Toby helped me just by being there for me and most mental illnesses benifit from a good support system. I don't speak for everyone though but my depression has gotten a lot better since Toby came around.

 

As for physical illnesses he has suggested things for me to do when I'm in pain. He hasn't healed me but he's a good sounding board :P

There have been a few people saying their tulpa helped more directly than just being there, with some mental illnesses.

 

I'm moving this to Q&A. Forum Questions and Comments is for threads about the forum software and staff.

For psychosomatic types of things, it could be probable. As for physical ailments, I wouldn’t apply too much hope to that. Although the concept behind it could be used as having inward attention in wanting to have certain bodily processes functioning efficiency, but that would raise the question on why our brain and body needs someone like a tulpa to operate said “healing” and “regenerative” facilities?

 

I’d presume that in theory, if a tulpa could do that, they would probably be more astute than we ever could in regulating our bodies consciously. Now, whether that’s better than psychic healings and what have you, that’s a matter of opinion.

I don't think we can answer this question at this time, we know very little about how tulpas affect the brain (if at all).

 

My tulpas do help me a lot with my chronic pain, they can't make it all go away and some times it works better than others but they do definitely have an effect that has bettered my everyday life a lot, however I couldn't say if this is all placebo effect or if they do something that specifically affects the muscles involved or stimulates dopamine release or any other possibilities you can think of.

 

I'll also note that my pain is caused by a medically diagnosed physical illness, it's not psychosomatic.

They can probably help heal, not just hide, physical illness as well. Given that the placebo effect is known to do more than just make you think you're getting better when you're not, I'd say the brain does influence healing at least some. If the psychological effects from taking a sugar pill can make you heal faster, so should some of the belief manipulation things a tulpa can do.

 

No, they're not going to cure cancer or other chronic disease, and aren't a substitute for real medical attention, but they might be able to get you over a flu quicker.

Like Alex said, we know that your mentality can have an affect on how quickly you get over your sickness. Based on that I'm going to assume that a tulpa can aid in the healing process, because they can distract you or do something else, but I think saying that they can go so far as to cure or even be the sole reason a person heals might be far-fetched. Of course, for all we know tulpa leave their physical marks in the brains . . . if they do then perhaps they can heal in a more direct manner, but I just don't see that very likely.

 

I know that they can help with psychological illnesses, however. That isn't very hard to understand, as their existence is immersed in psychology.
