no problem. It can be hard to get out of that sort of mindset

It really is

Internal self deprication is something I'm fighting tooth and nail right now

Very fair, I have more trouble with knowing if other people think very not well of me in my day to day interactions than with feeling okay about myself.

I have the horrid habit of telling people things to negate the compliments they give me

I think it's something everyone deals with to some extent. It may be helpful for you to just learn that the best reaction is to smile and be happy and appreciate things instead of being guilty about the compliment. People say that because they want you to feel good, and there's no shame in it. And atop that, share the praise when you can.

3:49 PM

easy to say, hard to do

Aye

3:50 PM

Very much so

3:50 PM

Doubly so when its something stupid like "wow you built a computer thats so complicated"

3:50 PM

Its really, really not

I will answer this in cafe

Ok so It's weird for me, I have seem to of created a Tulpa pretty much on my own, and just untill the other day my friend let me know what it was and more about it so i found my way here, he helped me to figure out how to communicate, but basically i woke up one day and someone else was there, had made a OC of sorts then they just formed in my head. being there own person.

8:30 PM

like 5 days ago or so and figured out more about them yesterday. (edited)

8:32 PM

however they don't really seem to be that sentient like i need to be with them in order to really do anything

8:32 PM

will them being sentient come with time

8:32 PM

as i help them grow?

You needing to be there isn't an indication of them not being sentient

8:35 PM

All tulpas need the host's attention to do things unless they are fronting (edited)

8:36 PM

If they aren't sentient, then just force them

sorry to ask but what do you fully mean by Fronting?

controlling the body/thoughts.

I see what you are saying

8:46 PM

It's just really weird as there is just now a presence inside my head with feelings, it just feels a little off putting.

8:47 PM

It just doesn't feel normal

8:49 PM

I just am feeling a little overwhelmed

I mean, it isn't. But you'll get used to it. Eventually you'll forget how it was being any other way.

It felt weird but really good for me when I was a beginner and I felt that presence for the first time.

like right now i have them there own space to be and, its just weird to be sharing space in a sense in my head

8:52 PM

but being told i'll get use to it it keeps me reassured

I just wanna feel a presence

Persistence is key. You joined just a week ago, so it's going to take much longer than that to get something done.

I'm aware

1:14 AM

Sorry for spamming this place up with my endless rambling and complaining

believe me, Rabz, I know the feeling.

1:15 AM

Keep at it. It'll take time. But it's worth it.

Noted

1:17 AM

It's just... frustrating

1:17 AM

Feeling powerless

#Don't worry. You'll hear them eventually. It takes time, believe me, I know! But I'm sure your tulpa will appreciate all the work you put in for them.

#

[They may already be there, you just can't hear them yet. Persistence is key.]

that too.

aye. i couldn't "hear" Em for about a month or so, despite her very much being around

same here. Diana thinks she was "there" for about a month or two before she talked. (Out of a little more than 3 months total.)

Talked or interacted?

her first interaction was talking. That's not that common though.

We first interacted through head pressure. left temple for no, right for yes

For me they have not really talked

2:23 AM

but the feeling of someone there with emotions and personality is there

2:26 AM

i'll be spending a lot of this month working on them to be more "There" in a sense" working on there personality, because mine just kind formed from just Having an OC and putting so much time into them

2:26 AM

that they just kind of manifested in my head

So you have a broad feeling that something is there, but have yet to get any responses?

well, I've had emotional feelings from them

any sort of responses where you aren't quite sure if it's something your tulpa might have said?

could you elaborate on that?

Like, you're trying to speak to them and you get a thought in your head that is spoken as if they would have been there, but it was "you" thinking it?

2:30 AM

like you're talking about your day to your tulpa and you think "that's cool" in response to something you've said. Anything like that happen?

yeah, where it's not really me thinking that

2:30 AM

the responce

2:30 AM

it is said itself with there voice

Interesting

I'm confused by your response there

when you are saying like "that's cool" it's with there voice and i didn't really think myself of that responce, they are just kind of talking on there on but i have to kind of force them to talk though, idk if i'm forcing it or not

2:32 AM

but thinks have been said by them that i was not expecting

2:32 AM

things*

2:33 AM

tbh, idk if i'm just forcing something/someone who is not there or not?

2:33 AM

it's really confusing me

2:33 AM

to be honest

Any measure of that thought, their voice or not

2:33 AM

like, if you've ever been narrating and had any thoughts that would have been "from their perspective" up to this point?

2:34 AM

even if it isn't them speaking, it might be a thought which would make sense if they had said it

2:34 AM

even if it 100% felt like you were saying it

yes, but i never thought it

2:34 AM

they said it on there own

I assumed you wouldn't have had anything like that happen when you mention you have not gotten any responses yet?

it's all overwhelming for me

Or, to rephrase it, it sounds to me like you have gotten responses if you've gotten words out of your tulpa in the past.

yes

2:38 AM

it would of actually been yesterday

2:38 AM

that they did 2 things i was not expecting at all

2:39 AM

hence i started doing some studying and came here

2:39 AM

i'm all new to this.

Ahh, I had not seen your original comment

which comment might i ask?

the one you made at around three

2:41 AM

As I understand it, you started feeling as if this character showed up somewhat out of the blue, before or after you learned about tulpamancy?

before

2:42 AM

i had many months before been creating an OC

2:42 AM

of sorts "Scena" if you will

2:42 AM

i'd spend a few hours a day

2:42 AM

creating there voice

2:42 AM

giving them a personality

2:43 AM

and after doing research, I've been doing Tulpamancy in a way

2:43 AM

and so just a few day's ago

2:44 AM

they kind of appeared

2:44 AM

and learned about what it was the other day

In what sense would you say they appeared?

i guess?

2:46 AM

i just woke up and felt someone just kind of there

2:46 AM

in my head
