I believe I have heard of this, but also heard that the findings showed similarities to scans of people experiencing a religious phenomenon, so only indicates that. That may have been a different study though and I will watch this when I have the time. Regardless, it’s all very interesting

The issue is that endogenic doesn’t mean “person who doesn’t remember trauma” it means “I am a system and my system did not form with trauma”, which is going to harm systems who don’t remember their trauma because they’re going to think they don’t have it.

Wow I really need to start playing this again

I’m in the UK and was always told I couldn’t have a cat because we live too close to a road to be safe. Even though it’s not great, everyone has outdoor cats here. Indoor cats are seen as cruel, at least I was always told they were

I hate the term sysmed but I’ve also seen “traumascum” before and that’s. So. So much worse

Hi !! We’re a suspected DID sys :3

idk it always makes me :(( that people equate a mental disorder (DIDOSDD) to sexualities and genders. being trans is not a mental disorder, and having DID is a mental disorder

I agree. OSDID is literally designed to make someone forget their trauma. Especially with endos who have trauma holders or say that they have childhood trauma but just “know” it isn’t what caused their system.

Modern tulpermancy has no psychological evidence behind it.

It is effectively creating an imaginary friend.

Yes, modern tulpermancy is a misunderstanding and bastardisation of a closed practice

“The concept of tulpas has origins in the Buddhist nirmāṇakāya, translated in Tibetan as sprul-pa the earthly bodies that a buddha manifests in order to teach those who have not attained nirvana. The western understanding of tulpas was developed by twentieth-century European mystical explorers”

I know Wikipedia isn’t the world’s best source, but the section on theosophy and thought forms is interesting en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulpa

I’m not suggesting tulpermancers are faking being tulpermancers. I really, really hate when people insinuate that every “endogenic” system is faking.

There is a closed religious practice known as tulpermancy, but what most people call tulpermancy is a bastardised version.

“This study was a survey-based and observational. A series of questionnaires were used to gather data from users on several of the most popular tulpamancy forums and chat websites”

This isn’t exactly reliable.

“The majority of media surrounding tulpas and non-traumagenic plural phenomena has been limited to poorly researched sensationalism”

I haven’t read through this entire article, as it is quite long, but it appears to just be a self report.

It appears to just be a group of tulpermancers saying how tulpermancy has affected their lives.

I also cannot find any information on the man who wrote that article or his credentials.
