We're human, we make mistakes. They know that. Even if they're a bit upset with you over the whole thing, just sit them down and tell them how you feel. Tell them you're sorry, beg for their forgiveness, ask them to help you stay on task. They'll do it but they're your subconscious-- you need to admit it to yourself openly that this is what you need before anything else happens, they can't just do it for you. Tell them you love them, that you -want- things to work but you're having a really hard time, just explain it to them. Communication is key in any relationship but especially here. They may know your thoughts but that doesn't mean you can just assume they'll know and respond to what you're doing if your mind keeps them at bay. Have faith, you'll get through this.

Hello everyone! New to the forums (partially) but definitely not the fandom or Tulpas at this point. I haven't started on one yet but I have read every single post in this entire thread (thanks to a few hours a night for the past week) and have read just about every guide imaginable over at tulpa.info and said forums. Obviously theory is far from practice, but having looked over it all there was one major thing that I've noticed go somewhat untouched in this thread that I wanted to point out. No matter what your reasons are for starting a Tulpa, how far a long you are, or what your emotional level is at with your Tulpa, I think one of the major keys, if not -the- major key, is LOVE. A very basic principle that I'm sure everyone here understands and I'm sure subconsciously recognizes, but IMO, when you bring it to the fore and truly focus on that one sheer emotion, and energy, if you make that connection and pursue the drive of loving your tulpa with all your heart, then not only will you expediate the process 10 fold, but it will be one of the more rewarding experiences of your life. Now with that little thought out of the way, I did have a minor bone to pick that I feel sometimes goes unanswered here: There are two 'schools' of Tulpa thought. Psychology, and Metaphysics. Please, for the sanity of everyone on both sides of the field can we keep them separate? That last handful of pages have seen some rather irritating assumptions about what Tulpa are/aren't and who is 'qualified' to create one. If you're a metaphysicist/spiritualist and notice another spiritualist who you think isn't doing things properly then by all means, tell them how you feel. But please don't openly look down upon other Tulpamancers of the Psychological school as if you 'own' some higher-power form of knowledge on the subject. I don't make it my business to make Spiritualists feel inferior or like their method is unscientific, so please don't look down on us like we're missing half the picture or being childish. Keep it separate. Now, as for my own progress, again I'm going to be starting out fully next week (now armed with tons and tons of data/threads/info) and will update how things go for myself. I also plan on launching a Tulpa Diary/Information based show on Celestia Radio/Canterlot TV discussing Tulpae on the airwaves. For those of you that might be interested in coming on as a guest at one point (especially folks with more developed Tulpae) please feel free to PM me and let me know! I'd appreciate it~ TL;DR- Don't forget to love your tulpa, don't mix metaphysics and psychology, and I'm starting Forcing next week with a new show on Celestia Radio. PM me for details.
