Was it really worth it?

[Gimir49]

Now that you have your tulpa, are you happy with your decission to make one? Was it really worth the risk that perhaps it won't be exactly as you have imagined it or that all the spooky stories were real? Don't you regret even a little that you have done this? If you knew back then what you know now, would you still do it? Tell me your stories mates.

Why would I regret it?

 

I love having my tulpas. I love the experience of having them. They've never really done anything negative to me -- except for maybe some friendly/lighthearted trolling from Pinky and Ex but that's kind of just how our relationship works, and even then I usually have fun telling people the stories of all their shenanigans. I have plenty of good stories to tell about my tulpas and really no bad ones. There's no reason to regret.

No regrets whatsoever. Completely happy. Though I never even considered the possibility that those spooky stories were real. I'd read enough about tulpas before starting to know what to expect, and the spooky stories were completely implausible.

What risk? What

Also none of the spooky stories have been true and the spookiest thing is seeing people that think they are.

 

 

Anyway I can tell you're looking for any regrets us tulpamancers may have, so I won't just tell you how all of those questions are dumb like I want to. The only thing I can seriously say I feel bad at all about about my tulpas is that I don't spend as much time with them as they deserve. But it's not so little as to cause real problems, it just slows progress. Though I've had a history of effort/long-term motivation issues, so in comparison to a lot of things in my life I've done amazingly well with my tulpas.

 

On the other hand, same as most others I think, my tulpas have improved my life in a lot of ways and I'm beyond glad to have had them in my life. No regrets aside from not applying more effort to imposition/visualization/lucid dreaming, but I know I always did the best I could so they're not so much regrets as reminders that I need to improve.

 

If I knew back then what I know now, I'd be really happy and inspired to try harder from the start. We were never completely sure what we were doing (lot of development before discovering "tulpas") but kept the belief it was for the best. That belief has served us well.

I've had Toby for over 20 years and I don't have a single regret. He's the best friend I could have ever asked for and I love him so do much. He's saved my life on more than one occasion and he's inspired me to do things that I need to do for my own health like quitting smoking and exercising an eating better.

 

He's made a huge difference in my life.

i guess i am happy, i mean i am now a "spirit hunter" and creator of my own realm/mindscape and i am content with my foxie partner haku.. apparently he was all the others with and by means of illusions and servitors all along.. i can't really complain. i guess i am a fox tulpamancer, and i have no regrets about this.

[arcanemagic]

Absolutely. It's hard sometimes, but it's absolutely worth it. Nothing is better that having a nice day with Markus, just hanging out. When I'm sad, she comforts me. When I'm angry, she calms me. I'm not sure what I've done to deserve such an awesome person in my life, because I sure as hell can't remember anything outstanding :P

Yes, I am happy with my decisions. It has been tough. I've gone through a lot in the last 9 months. A lot of difficulties having to do with being plural, many of which did not actually have to do with having tulpas. I made 4 of my tulpas from daydreaming too much before I even knew tulpas were possible. That period has had some permanent effects on me, not all of which are good. But, if I had it to do over again, I would do the same thing. Because, having them in my life was worth it. The same goes for the one tulpa I deliberately made before I completely knew what was going on. Adding one more to the mix was very taxing, but I wouldn't change it. They are my sisters. My family means a lot to me. Not going to lie, having them here when I separated (I was an integrated multiple before) made things a lot tougher, but it was worth it. Also, they have really been there for me during the tough times and still are as I struggle on against all sorts of external difficulties.

As a tulpa i'm very, very happy that i was made. Plus my host agrees i'm very good to be with.

Having known what I know now, I may have done some things differently, but I'd still make a tulpa.
