Tulpa.info - tulpa-questions

thats one of the reasons I came to the discord group. I havent used forums in years and its easier to do so in chat.

I thought he left cause he got banned

I don't know that much about binaural stuff, but I know that they make some for lucid dreaming so I'm pretty sure that if they work, they work while you're asleep

anyway as for binaural beats they’re kind of a meditation supplement.

He was banned from parts of the community. Not banned in general.

Using them when you go to bed will just help you sleep better if anything.

well thats not really an issue. Im just trying to find the best way to practice and improve my visualisation and figure out meditation.

6:12 AM

Meditation over the years hasnt really gone anywhere.

If they don't encourage sleep frequency waves, it might-- theoretically -- disrupt your sleep.

I’m way too tired to type it out again but someone posted a meditation method that worked for me in the meditation channel

6:14 AM

might wanna give that a look

the theta is for stuff like rem-sleep

6:14 AM

most recent one yes?

yea

its not easy for me to breathe through my nose. that a problem?

6:16 AM

I get lightheaded.

just breathing is the idea. So whatever is most normal for you

through the mouth in and out usually since Otherwise it triggers something akin to breathing in an oxygen-deprived environment.

6:18 AM

anyway this helps. Thanks. Ima head to bed tho so. Just to be sure its better to use this with my eyes closed in a dark room, with it on my desktop yes? for the 30 minutes.

6:18 AM

and perhaps in my sleep.

6:19 AM

anyway I gtg. just downloading the VLC app for android so it loops lol

6:20 AM

goodnight

Goodnight.

do y'all think prompting responses earlier on is more effective than just narrating endlessly?

try to mix it up

I do not see what it would matter. You will likely end up with the same thing after a certain amount of time.

okie

6:35 AM

thanks, gives me more certainty that what im doing is right

I do not think there is a "wrong" way.

what i'm doing works rather xP

@wemmy I don't think that it is a particularly good idea to establish a habit of making up responses yourself and essentially talking to yourself instead of your tulpa.

i didn't mean parroting, just prompting

7:00 AM

with questions and what not

Ah.

giving time to respond, etc

That is an excellent idea, then.

okie! thanks

yeah, that's a pretty good way to go about it

Apologies, I must have misread.

7:01 AM

Or, rather, I did misread.

7:01 AM

...my mistake.

I've literally never been so demotivated in forever

aw, why is that?

At first forcing Natt was fun but now it feels just so... Idk how to even describe it

7:31 AM

I haven't willfully forced in I think two weeks

7:31 AM

Sometimes I'll make some remark to her but besides that it is just...

7:31 AM

sigh

7:31 AM

I dunno

there's gotta be some enjoyable ways of spending time with her that you've simply overlooked, there's lots of ways to force you know

7:35 AM

that said, try not to make it into an obligation, if you need a break from stuff I'm sure natt will understand

I'm not even sure if she's there...

oh, she's been quiet lately?

I know once they're created they can't just disappear but

7:40 AM

Yeah a bit

7:40 AM

I'm just parroting\puppeting at this point

have you tried prompting for a response, like wemmy mentioned above?

Not lately

7:44 AM

I feel bad for her

7:44 AM

I even told her that she deserves a better host

aw, don't blame yourself

7:46 AM

sometimes it takes time for them to speak up

I know

8:22 AM

Just wish I knew what to do to get back on the horse and show her the world like I promised

Cheer up ^^

8:24 AM

Give yourself reminders.

8:24 AM

And put on a happy face.

Put On A Happy Face- Dick Van Dyke & Janet Leigh

Haha

Have you put an avatar of her on your phone?

Sorta

@Deleted User >I'm just parroting\puppeting at this point

10:11 AM

really now?

10:11 AM

what are you actually doing?

Wdym?

like, why do you say that?

Why do I say she deserves better?

10:32 AM

I dunno why

10:32 AM

I seem like a pretty bad host if I can't even talk to her

10:36 AM

I hate it. Because there are times where I'll imagine some sorta scenario with me and her, I clearly care, she means a lot to me. I just can't talk to her for some reason. It's like it's some sorta obligation that makes me not want to do anything.

10:40 AM

And by puppeting I basically mean I'm just imagining what she's saying to me rather then letting her actually speak.

10:40 AM

Even controlling some of her movements.

why are you doing that?

Because...

10:54 AM

I don't know why

well you need to figure it out.

If I'm being honest

Nate this is completely understandable

11:03 AM

what you need to do, and this is hard if you have gotten set in your ways, but you need to cut the strings, I mean literally picture the puppet strings being cut, and leave her on the ground limp. Don't force her down, but take all of your energy out of her and see if she moves.

Maybe it's because I keep fearing she won't turn out the way I want so I reinforce a personality on her, giving her lines to say

as far as speaking, that hose method crushed it for me and AJ last time we tried it

11:04 AM

shrugs why would you fear that?

Idk

AJ didn't turn out the way I wanted at all, which I am 1000x more happy for, she is her own girl and I love her all the more because of it

you need to disassociate yourself from "the way you want".

I've told myself I'd love her no matter what but it feels like I won't

11:05 AM

I don't know why

then confront that feeling

11:05 AM

a major mistake most new tulpamancers make, myself included, is push down those fears and doubts, repress them I mean.

11:05 AM

what you need to do is confront them, resolve them, and be at peace with them

11:06 AM

this ensures that your tupps development won't get snagged by represed doubt or fear such as that
