Not only, I mean a wider loss of control.
For example someone who is having hallucinations is usually powerless to stop them. She lost control and it's not exactly an issue of willpower.
If you're scared your body dumped a lot of adrenaline in your blood and you are shaking, your hands are trembling and you can't think straight. You're on the verge of losing control and again it's not really a matter of controlling your impulses.
My understanding is that in the case of tulpas, the hallucinations are voluntary and can be stopped and started at will.
