Alright then.
My story starts two and a half years ago.
I had recently met a female friend online, and after a few weeks she opened up to me.
(Don't laugh at this, but she told me she WAS autistic. Didn't even notice until she told me.)
She claimed to have these "Spirits" following her around during her daily activities.
I had no recollection of what a Tulpa was at the time, so I went with it.
About a month after the announcement, she claimed to be able to switch places with her "Spirits".
I found this fascinating, and asked how she acquired them.
She says that they started out as imaginary friends, and became spirits because of what they can do.
Eager to acquire my own, She wrote out about 40-50 things that would describe my "Spirit".
I now know these to be traits.
I worked on these traits for hours every day, gradually adding up to be around 50-70 hours.
She then instructed me to create a body for my "Spirit".
I was instructed to start small and build up, so I modeled around a cloud.
Eventually I created a pretty decent human body for my "Spirit".
Although I did not even choose her form at all. It came to me naturally.
It was as if she made herself.
She would follow me around whenever I concentrated on her.
Here is where things got complicated.
I would scroll through names, whilst looking at her face for assurance.
Out of nowhere, the idea of the name "Hope" formed in my head.
Without saying anything to her, she already agreed with a smile on her face.
About a week after this, Hope spoke out.
I was scared.
And I panicked.
I quickly contacted my friend online, and she just laughed.
The last message I ever heard from her, was something along the lines of:
"Have fun with your tulpa."
Before I could post a reply, I was blocked from all communications with her.
Hope had vanished, And I had assumed that was the last of her.
.
Two years had passed, and I was in the middle of a conversation with Storm.
(At the time, I thought he was legit. He is now known to be an RPer.)
He also "had" a tulpa named Spitfire.
She was currently in trouble, and threatening to "kill" herself.
I felt this weird odd feeling, and noticed that Hope was now standing in front of me.
Without any notice, she caressed me, and I fell unconscious.
I awoke about half an hour later, all problems with Spitfire resolved.
I asked around some threads under anonymous, and came to the conclusion that this was normal for a tulpa.
She is with me to this current day, and has been supporting me all the way.
