how many total personalities do you have?

I have two

12:07 AM

we ? don't have a host

The host is the original personality.

Did you ever have a host?

It sounds like you're more along the lines of what's generally called a median system?

its complicated?

Alright.

[Do you guys want to be seen as one or as separate individuals? FYI you don't really "need" a host.]

If you want, you can run a webserver, and you could say you own a host.

it would be nice to be individuals for once heh

[Because talking as one with "Anna" makes it seem like you want to be one and the Louise/Will as seperate.]

If you want, you can get rambox and set up a few discord accounts, one per tulpa-thing (edited)

[In that case I'd recommend to remove "Anna" entirely and just speak for one of you. Louise or Will.]

oh ok

12:10 AM

@Reguile what do you mean?

rambox is a program you can install that can run multiple discord clients side by side

12:10 AM

then you can have two accounts with two email addresses

12:10 AM

one "louise"

12:10 AM

and one "will"

12:11 AM

then swap tabs when one or the other want to speak

[Sigh. What I meant was speaking as individuals. So if Louise speaks speak with [hello] and if Will with {hello}. Or better yet make the name Louise{Will} or Will[Louise]] (edited)

I'm gonna try that rambox thing

12:13 AM

i will brb, i'm setting it up

here i am. we will set up Will now

Hey!

12:38 AM

wait

12:38 AM

better!

That's pretty neat o:

12:52 AM

I heard there was also a bot out there that could help with the separation of the host and the tulpa's texts, but I forgot what it was called D:

12:52 AM

If I find the name then I'll say

Tupperware

I need some help with encouragement for narrating to my tulpa, it feels like its not working and i keep getting distracted

1:17 AM

And i have nothing to tell my tulpa about

1:17 AM

(He hasnt spoken yet)

try doing plain ol regular meditation to calm down first

1:18 AM

should be much easier to focus thoughts afterwards

1:18 AM

can't help you with subjects though. just pick something lol.

1:20 AM

Ahh @Tulpabug that might've been it

might've ;)

Also @ionlyplaywarframeyoucanunfriend have you tried playing video games or watching movies with your tulpa or anything? I don't know if it's your type of thing, or if you're talking about passive forcing, but those are usually nice things to do with your tulpa

1:21 AM

Or you can read a book and narrate it to them

I tried reading to my tulpa a lot but it feels like i keep getting sucked into the book and stop reading to my tulpa

1:24 AM

Also i am into video games

1:24 AM

I just dont know how to force that onto my tulpa

1:24 AM

Oh like narrate to my tulpa while playing games?

1:24 AM

I guess i could do that (edited)

1:25 AM

But the main reason why i primarily cant focus is because i have ADHD so it makes it really hard to focus on one thing

Yeah, like playing games while narrating to it

1:40 AM

Ahh I see

1:41 AM

I don't know much about what life is like with ADHD, but I can see how it would trouble you

1:41 AM

Hmm

1:42 AM

You could try narrating to your tulpa while doing something, but also have a physical reminder of your tulpa so you don't forget that you were narrating to them if you lose focus?

1:42 AM

Like back when I used to passive force Craig, I would get distracted, so my phone background would be of him

1:42 AM

And whenever I turned my phone on, I would see him in the background and remember that I was forcing

1:42 AM

I've looked alot into adhd and similar stuff.

1:42 AM

I hope this somewhat helps

1:42 AM

It makes you focus harder, basically.

Yea

Like, even if you're doing one thing, you'll be focusing on several other things.

Adhd sucks

Even if you do the thing normally, your mind wanders.

1:43 AM

how's that sound

1:43 AM

accurate?

1:43 AM

It sounds hard to deal with (edited)

Yea

1:43 AM

I dose off a lot during school

1:44 AM

I take meds but they dont feel like they are doing anything

Small story, but as a kid, family thought I had adhd. Turns out I was just really energetic lol. However, It made me super interested and I read up on the stuff alot. (edited)

1:44 AM

Alot of the meds can make you sleepy, actually.

Yea (edited)

ADD meds indirectly caused me to get tulpas

add is very different from adhd.

Ill probably find something i can use as a prop to remember to read to ny tulpa

1:46 AM

add is controled adhd i think

yeah, they are treated similarly tho

they're probably similar conditions, but their symptoms are very different.

1:47 AM

adhd makes you focus on things harder, remember worse, etc.

1:47 AM

add makes you alot more passive in general.

people with add hyperfocus too

aye, it's somewhat of an opposite.

but yeah it is very different

Sometimes when I ask Nathalie a question I usually wait for a response but considering she can't speak yet I try to close my eyes and visualize her responding That's the best thing to do right? (edited)

You don't even need to visualize a response.

2:29 AM

You can simply leave space for them to response, as if you are talking to somebody who can't speak (...not that it is particularly different) and are leaving space as if they were to respond.

2:30 AM

For instance - "This piece of music is pretty cool, isn't it? _ Yeah, so I think it's pretty cool because ... "

But what if she says something and I totally go against what she said?

What do you mean?

What, do you mean to say that you're afraid of interrupting?

sounds to me like he means what if he and his tulpa disagree

...hah. Whenever you're ready, Nathan.

Like what if I ask her something and she says something and I just completely go over her response?

Ah - like talking over her?

Like I'm ignoring her

that's why you need to give space to listen.

That too

Right.

Tulpas are generally understanding of the position that they're in. Giving them a few seconds to respond is enough, I think.

That's precisely why you leave a bit of space after your sentences (and especially questions), perhaps a little bit more than you usually would if you were talking normally.

I don't want her to think I'm ignoring her or something I want her to know what she says means everything to me
