Hello, I have joined I guess, since I decided to start developing a tulpa. I actually started about a year ago, but decided to stop and think about it for a while and also because I was a bit impatient. I have now started again from the beginning, communicating toward them for a while for the last few days.
I don't want to be unhealthily attatched of course, and don't want to use them as an escape, so I must try to be careful. However, I will try to be more confidemt and reslonsible for them, and will intend to give them as much respect as I would anyone else.
I do want to base them on my OC, if they agree to it, though that will be a while until I get to that point. I have other odeas as well, but of course it is what they want, not me.
I really find this topic fascinating. Like most people my first impression was apprehension, but I have learned it can be quite a healthy thing if treated with respect and responsibility.
I do have slight worries of course. I may be too young, as many suggest having maturity to make one. Also, I am lonely right now, so perhaps I may be using it as a replacement for social experiences. I know I must be confident, but these do worry me a bit.
