when i came here i thought i was completely fine with the idea of a tulpa (having 1 myself) and then i found out that i was still a little skeptical anda bit freaked out by it
1:43 AM
but when i exhibited these traits people didnt go oh you poor child (this is not going where you think it is) but rather as someone who fucked up and has to realize they better learn to live with this
1:44 AM
and weirdly i liked it because it caused me to have a chat with my tulpa and actually research shit

aapeli had some freaky moments too with me because i came out so quickly and the first week was pretty hard for him but now 2½ months later he doesnt regret it anymore
its a big change for sure and im sure theres a difference developing slowly vs quickly in terms of how you adapt to it

get some faint thoughts that get stronger over a couple of months vs looking at yourself through the mirror with a weird expression on your face after just a few days lol(edited)
A long kiss goodnight
I'm glad it worked out for you, but it does make me sick to my stomach you felt pressured to keep your tulpa
I know somebody who treated another person like this with the similar situation even though it could have been changed
I understand that.
People shouldn't be pressured to keep them I fully agree with Ranger

I get that they are alive and so but I think its just better to release them out into your headspace if you have one or so or let them go dormant.

well i grew attached to her i couldnt just let her die lol
We didn't have to become a system of 18, but by the time we realized that we don't want to lose or get rid of the others. It's also possible I would have kept them all anyways, but went about being a system differently
I believe you ultimately choose what thoughtforms become tulpas or not. Anything in the mind can become a tulpa and it's not too late to reverse or undo the process
I still think there's value in treating tulpas like people, but I understand that things are different for tulpas than they are for a person in a separate body. A tulpa is more interconnected to their host, and you can have situations where the tulpa doesn't want to be as seprate as possible
Yeah same but we shouldn't force tulpa or host to go live miserable lives that they don't want and FORCE them to suffer for a twisted sense of morality that is worse than dissipation done humanely.

It's going to be different for different systems. However, my base assumption is if the primary fronters want to dissipate it's a red flag for a mental health issue
It says more than not that there is something wrong and they might need help.

another reason i wouldnt wanna leave her is because i feel like harry potter discovering diagon alley but then getting back to his life with his aunt and uncle
