>>33922521>How'd you develop it? Was it hard?Persistent work over about a 2 week period. It wasn't too hard for me, but I've always been pretty good at visualizing things in my head.
>Does it really feel like another person?I'll give you about a 75% yes. We have our own opinions on things (dogs vs. cats, differences in likes in food). He's also quite a bit more abrasive and brave than I am.
>Does it become a problem in public?Nah, it never has. I know that if I exposed it in public I'd look like a whackjob, and my tulpa knows the same. Only one person who knows me, knows about my tulpa.
>>33922541Oh, yeah, I don't for a minute claim to have actual, trauma-induced schizophrenia. The way I see it is, the human brain is a pretty fascinating thing, so I figure... 'Hey, if the brain is capable of doing stuff like this maybe, why not give it a try?'
He's actually not based on anyone. Once he started developing I just kind of let him pick traits he wanted to have, and I approved of them. And no, I see no physical presence at all. Occasionally I'll get tingling feelings that feel like a hand on my shoulder, or even hugs.
