ABANDONED ACCOUNT

i thought this was obvious

11:46 PM

11:47 PM

11:47 PM

do you mean switching

yes

There will always be similarities between a tulpa and host

rusty your pfp is very cute and scrubly /pos

do i have to use tone indicators here

no idk

11:50 PM

i do usually

11:50 PM

its become a habit

oh ok

It’s not a bad thing, best to remember that early on so you don’t think you are failing when your tulpa starts to have similar traits to you down the road. Usually when the tulpa starts talking to people outside your system, possessing or switching very often.

uh give me stuff to do with emily

11:54 PM

were very very bored

draw something

Reply to: were very very bored

11:54 PM

I got this cute pfp from zee

nice

or destiny I can't remember

Either way emily is in need of a pfp. So draw her one!

we already have one in mind and i cant draw

learn

11:56 PM

It doesn't have to be professional grade. Natalies pfp was supposed to be a cxat

11:56 PM

but became very different

well i wont draw her a pfp but i will try to learn to draw

11:57 PM

just not now

Well Learn with her!

so i can just let her front whenever?

Yep

12:01 AM

As long as it's convenient for both of you

so i can just let her front whenever?

Make sure it is time you both agree on

she agreed to talk (she can string some comprehensive sentences together now so i thought it was okay to let her try for the first time)

12:03 AM

how do i switch again?

Just do it lol

12:04 AM

but if you want a more technical answer

12:04 AM

Tell her your ready to switch then let her figure things out. Have a codeword for when she is done (edited)

alright! thank you!

no problem. Just remember that it (most likely) won't feel like anything special

12:06 AM

trust the process

Lucilyn: simplest switching symbolism is visualizing yourself (the host) leaving the body, and then your tulpa entering the body (edited)

3:09 AM

also switching was special for us the first time, personally

3:09 AM

we were like, noticing all the details about the senses that Lumi normally tuned out

3:09 AM

the textures of stuff and all that

3:10 AM

but eventually tulpas will get used to being switched regardless, yeah

3:11 AM

also @ being autopilot while doing daily tasks, after 8+ years of switching, yes we're just on autopilot and thoughtless a lot of the time, but literally whenever I think for example it's in my voice and, well, me

3:11 AM

if it's ever not and just back to the host then you've lost the switch

3:12 AM

good to remember who's switched occasionally if you struggle with that/blending

3:12 AM

we've been doing it for forever now though so we don't need to put any thought into it, even to wake up still switched

How do we know if we are possesing the host or not

for me it feels like i "become" my tulpa, its as simple as that

11:11 AM

oh thats switching, possessing is more vague but generally its whoever wanted to do the thing

for us we have more of a paralell way of thinking so usually its joint control for us

Possessing shouldn't be vague. If you feel that your body belongs to your tulpa and they control it atm while it's still you who is thinking, it's possession.

yeah i see it more as commanding the "autopilot" to do something

Alejandro

Possessing shouldn't be vague. If you feel that your body belongs to your tulpa and they control it atm while it's still you who is thinking, it's possession.

it can be dissocciative like that, but it doesnt need to be (edited)

I think possession is dissociative by definition. Switching not necessarily.

11:14 AM

"Becoming your tulpa" is switching, not possession.

yeah i corrected myself

11:17 AM

i think there are many ways to do the same thing, and things work different for everyone

I guess our predicament is that we can switch but we don't know who is in "control"

Reply to: Possessing shouldn't be vague. If you feel that your body belongs to your tulpa and they control it …

11:20 AM

if that makes sense

It does make sense. Identity can be fluid. We also sometimes experience it.

oh i see we don't actually associate one or the other controlling we just know what we want to do then do it

At this point we can consciously choose who to be at given moment.

Though in some cases devins definitly in charge and sometimes like now I'm in charge while he's just watching through our eyes

Sometimes we make that decision retroactively. Like, which of us is responsible for writing what we just did, we wonder before we choose a prefix.

that makes sense

is it a good idea to let my tulpa front whilst im at school? or is it better if im alone?

Lucilyn: that totally depends on your tulpa's maturity & competence fronting (edited)

1:56 PM

if you're new to it and just messing around then very no, don't disrupt your school experience

Reisen

if you're new to it and just messing around then very no, don't disrupt your school experience

got iy

1:57 PM

it

I agree, a young tulpa fronting at school sounds like it would be really stressful

2:07 PM

A tulpa used to fronting however? If they wanted to, why not?

Hi, one of my tulpas/headmates is in the middle of forming and I think is sending me telepathic messages, like making me think certain things that I don't feel much control over. For instance, I've been calling them Treasure for a while, since I thought it'd be a name that would fit for a multitude of personal reasons, but every time I referred to them the name "Tristan" kept appearing. So, now we're calling them Tristan. I just wanted to know, would they be able to send messages like that, even when they're basically silent for the rest of the time? Ig I'm asking because my other tulpa formed really fast and this one is taking their sweet time and I haven't gone through all the steps like this. (edited)

Lucilyn: early tulpa vocality/tulpish(the term for communication with thoughts/feelings instead of words) is often referred to as the "googoo gaga"s of tulpa development (edited)

12:45 AM

there's not always much if any real thought or intent behind early thoughts you associate with your tulpa

12:45 AM

since they're still developing a coordinated sense of self in the first place and all

12:45 AM

it's best to not take early tulpish too seriously

12:46 AM

if they really want any changes (like to their form, name etc.) they'll be able to tell you later on once they're fully vocal

12:46 AM

so yeah, think of it like the tulpa equivalent of being a baby

Hi, l'm new to tulpamancy. I've been working on my tulpa for more than 3 months. I've heard about thinking from the perspective of your tulpa. Should I do that? I mean won't that be like parroting??

You're trying to make a tulpa or to switch with them?

Make one

has the tulpa said anything

Once l felt like l heard her call my name. Nothing else after that

heard as in actually hear, or a thought

I heard a voice similar to mine, it was only for a second

have you had any thoughts that are yours but seem like they would come from your tulpa if only you actually heard them

Nope

thoughts that pop up right as you're asking or talking to them?

8:27 AM

or very quickly after that
