I would claim that someone that goes thru with making a Tulpa is probably not in the best state of mind and, from all the reading i've done from people in the tulpa world, are using them (whether their fake, spirits, or actual figments given life) to compensate for something they don't have most unnaturally. But it's everyone's right to do what they want as long as they aren't hurting others. you say energy is energy, and i understand that, but you're also playing with your brain which is high risk in different ways from physical harm.

Doing your research sounds right. Tho i'm not adverse to (some) drugs and weird situations so maybe it's a bit hypocritical for me to be talking about brain safety

You would indeed be playing with your mind, which there are consequences to anything that we do, on our conscious. It all depends on how the individual can handle the situation. Drugs affect the chemicals in the brain where I would say having a Tulpa affects the mind itself.

If jokingly, I don't care. If serious, get the hell away from me.

Lol you guys, tulpa isn't really a new concept. I'd elaborate my opinion later, if I feel like it. That's no joke and comparing it to sleep paralysis is kind of out of the question.

I have a lot of things I want to say about the idea of tulpas. Like, I have DID so the idea of having head mates/system members isn't foreign to me. I mostly have fictive alters and it can be fun to talk to them in head space but like I don't know if someone should force anything like that, especially with a crush. I mean it is possible to have relations in the headspace but I feel it's messy. But I really think forcing a tulpa or alter is so so bad. Usually these things are a result of turama and it's how the brain copes with what happened. Also if you feel close and ID with a character closely you might have a kinsoul of that character which is a processes of awakening the characters soul inside your own from past lives or however you want to believe they got there. There are a lot of ways you can meet your crush other than forcing something like a tulpa.

I've spent nearly a decade in a solitary relationship confinement so I believe I am well versed to leave a comment on a thread such as this. There are people that are not as tolerable to loneliness as I am, and such, develop psychological issues. I say issues and not problems for a very specific reason. Okay, say for example you are a hideous looking human being and you don't have a great personality. What are your options? You have to settle and make sacrifices to get a partner. But after taking in so much media that presents to you idolized people, you have an unrealistic standard of what you want. Some people do not want to settle. Thus, the beginning of a psychosis forms as the mind's attempt to create balance in conflict. The extent in which it forms varies from person to person who reaches this stage. Yes, I believe people who have created tulpas (had to look up the term, aka imaginary friend) definitely have a psychosis that should be treated. However, there is a part of me that thinks it's ultimately better for them to live in their own imaginary world.
