            Tulpas are created through rituals. If you are a plural person (assuming that means what some call multiple personality disorder), they arent necessarily created through intention, thus Im not referring to plural people at all.

            Additionally, the use of ‘psychosis’ is not clinical, its everyday language slang. Im not actually calling people psychotic, id be calling myself that, as i do practice ritual magick every once in a while

        I know plurality and things like DID are real. But is tulpamancy a thing? The description sounds like a meme

          Unironically, yes. The brain is really weird about a lot of shit. It’s not that difficult to make it believe something if you’re committed.

          I got involved in this around a decade ago learning a bunch of “brain hacking” stuff. Can confirm, it is real. Can’t say it’s something I’d recommend to the average person, though. It’s a fast track to some major instability if you aren’t used to playing around with your own thought processes in detail.
