Awesome Nupoet! That is huge! Not crazy at all. Brilliant in fact. Repeating the exercise will help you heal. It will take away a little bit more of the pain each time until the pain is completely gone and you can look in the mirror and only see you.

Its like what they do with PTSD sufferers. They recount the trauma over and over again until they can go through the story without it triggering any emotional response.

I went through the process to recovery from the pain of a trauma in my life. There will come the day when you can talk yourself through the declarations and really know you know it to be true.

Good on you! Keep up the good work. Its already working.
