** Here's a big one: there's actually [[http://www.meltingasphalt.com/hallucinated-gods/ a theory]] saying that in ancient times, it was common (as in near-universal) for people to hallucinate voices in their heads, that served purposes such as warning them about danger, and were actually for all intents and purposes fully-fledged intelligent beings. While people thought of them as "gods", this served the same purpose as the "gut feelings" people get about things today—that is, instead of (or maybe in addition to) just getting a feeling, they'll actually hear a voice telling them something like "Run!" In short? This theory basically says that ''people used to literally hear their emotions as intelligent beings in their heads.'' In real life. Now that sounds awfully familiar.

*** It can really be surprising just how close the actual experiences of people with tulpas can get to some of what happens in this story. People with tulpas have very close friends who, while existing only in their minds, can think and act on their own. Many even create entire worlds where their tulpas live, and visit them there in various ways, including lucid dreaming. While there are certainly many important differences, this is incredibly similar to the experience Riley has talking to her emotions and visiting her Mind World.
