In just a month, or maybe even less, I’ve learned and experienced so much using the law. I started understanding how it works specifically for me, although I still haven’t fully narrowed it down yet.

I’ve had moments where I manifested things in less than an hour or within 1–2 days.

For example: I had my driving license exam at 4 PM. It was already 4:20 and I was still in a city around 20 minutes away from the place where I was supposed to take the exam. I called my instructor, explained the situation, and asked if I could be a little late. He declined and said they always close at 4 and I’d have to come back another week.

But I had already spent money traveling there and already told everyone I was taking the test that day. I wasn’t going to give up just because of time.

So I decided to go there anyway. While I was on my way, I affirmed in my head for about 5 minutes: “I will take the test today and pass.”

When I arrived, the place looked empty and closed, but I went inside anyway. I heard noise coming from one of the rooms and there was a guy packing his things, grabbing his bag, about to leave right as I walked in. Before entering I had also seen a girl leaving the building, probably someone who had been taking the exam, and she must’ve taken long enough that he had to stay overtime.

As he was leaving, I told him I came to take the exam and that even if I had reduced time, I still wanted to take it today.

He paused for a second, thought about it, dropped his bags without saying a word, and gave me the test.

I finished it in like 5 minutes and passed because it was easy as fuck.

I also had success with the ladder experiment, just not in the way people usually talk about.

About 2 days after I started visualizing ladders, I saw one on my way to the city and thought, “Nah, this ladder would’ve been here anyway, just a coincidence.”

Then 2 hours later, I was in a building on the third floor and some guy walks right past me carrying a massive ladder while staring directly at me.

At that point I was just like, “Fine, the law is real, I get it, no need to shove it in my face” lol.

There were other smaller manifestations too, but that’s not really why I’m making this post.

My biggest desire is manifesting my SP. We were together for 3 years, but she’s with someone else now, and I’ve realized it was all my fault.

Before the breakup, I started having constant nightmares and obsessive thoughts about her being with someone else. I felt like I didn’t deserve her, like she was going to leave me. It became extremely obsessive and I stayed in that state for around 2 months.

The longer I stayed there mentally, the more distant she became and the more signs appeared that she was seeing another guy.

And the craziest part? It was the EXACT same guy I had nightmares about.

Even she was confused after the breakup when I told her my nightmare basically came true. She literally said:
“Why did he appear in such a convenient way at such a convenient time when our relationship was failing?”

At the time, I didn’t know the answer.

It took me 6 months of extremely dark thoughts to finally realize all of this. Honestly, I don’t even think I can fully explain what happened to me mentally during that time or the things I was doing to myself. It was terrible.

But now I feel like a completely different person. Like that version of me wasn’t even me.

A few days ago I had what genuinely felt like an enlightenment moment. It felt like I woke up from a deep sleep I’d been in my entire life.

I suddenly realized everything that had happened — not just the breakup, but my entire life — was reflecting what I believed myself to be.

All of it.

I started connecting every good and bad thing that ever happened to me and realized I caused ALL of it.

And weirdly enough, it was one of the best feelings I’ve ever had in my life.

I felt powerful as fuck because now I understood that I could use this consciously instead of unconsciously letting it control me.

I realized I could become anyone I wanted.

This realization happened about 5 days ago and ever since then I’ve felt amazing. Free. Happy. In control.

But now I’m here asking for help because I also feel stuck.

This power feels so real that now I feel like I NEED to control it all the time. Like if I stop controlling my thoughts for even a second, the same thing will happen again and my fears will manifest exactly the way they did before.

I know now that manifesting her loving me again isn’t actually hard. I know exactly how I felt when she loved me that way and I can return to that state.

But my issue is that I keep consuming. I keep reading. I keep searching for more information and more reassurance.

My biggest struggle is letting go.

And by letting go, I mean not feeling like I have to control every thought, every moment, every outcome.

I noticed that I actually DO feel good and stable until I start consuming more content again. Then suddenly I feel like I’m doing something wrong or not enough.

But at the same time, whenever I stop consuming content, I start feeling like I’m losing reassurance. Like I need to read more posts or watch more videos just to stay in this state.

So is it actually okay to just let go and allow things to unfold?

Because honestly, I’m terrified that if I stop controlling everything, something bad will happen again. I really don’t want to experience that again.

I guess what I’m asking is:
How do you actually trust?

Do I stop affirming?
Do I stop visualizing?
Do I just let it come?

Lately I’ve been thinking about starting the gym, meeting new people with similar interests, and just living life more because I think I’ve been stuck in my head way too much.

I’m trying to find a way to live like a normal human being who doesn’t feel the need to control absolutely everything, because honestly that’s when I felt the best.

But then my brain immediately goes:
“How will it know to come if I stop affirming and controlling it?”, "What if when i stop controlling it, it will get out of control again and manifest the fears i don't want at all cost?".

I know this probably sounds confusing, but honestly I barely understand what I’m trying to explain myself.

I think I’m scared that if I fully let go, it won’t happen.

Like… do I just set the intention, stay in the state, and stop needing reassurance from success stories and videos 24/7?

I DON’T KNOW. THIS IS SO HARD TO EXPLAIN.

Sorry for the massive post, I just wanted to explain everything clearly because I hate being misunderstood.

I guess I’m confused because how am I suddenly lost again right after feeling so enlightened and aware of all of this?

I really hope some of you understand what I mean because I genuinely love this community, but I’m starting to feel like constantly needing reassurance from more stories and videos isn’t healthy anymore.

Thank you so much to anyone who reads all this and replies. And sorry again if this was way too much lol.

I have used the Law many times successfully, and honestly it opened my eyes and made me more aware of myself and my thoughts. But recently I’ve seen some posts about people completely losing touch with reality while applying it. I know those people probably misunderstood the Law or took it too far, but it still planted a seed of worry in me.

Because of that, during a visit with my therapist, I brought up LOA and Neville. I wasn’t trying to prove anything to him, I just asked how to approach these ideas in a healthy way without ending up obsessive or disconnected from reality.

His response surprised me. Instead of just giving advice, he basically told me none of it is real. He laughed a little and said Neville was just a smart guy who knew how to sell smart sounding ideas. He talked about how modern science has debunked these concepts and then gave me some examples from his own patients.

One story was about a guy who became convinced he was going to win the lottery. For 3 months he saved up around $2000 because he “imagined” himself winning, and then he spent all of it on lottery tickets. He lost everything and apparently ended up mentally destroyed because reality hit him hard afterward. My therapist said they spent months trying to help him reconnect with reality.

Another example he gave was about a motivational speech from a famous successful person called something like “how you can earn millions.” He said that a few days after the event, he suddenly had a huge increase in people booking therapy sessions because they bought into the hype, felt euphoric for a few days, and then crashed emotionally when nothing changed in their lives.

He explained that a lot of these ideas are presented in a very convincing way, especially by charismatic people who know how to speak well and sell hope. According to him, people get caught up in the emotional high and start believing life doesn’t require real world action anymore.

Normally I wouldn’t overthink this so much, but this therapist genuinely helped save me from depression about a year ago, so his opinion means a lot to me. That’s why his words really stuck with me.

So now I’m kind of conflicted. I’ve personally had experiences that made me believe but at the same time I can see how some people can take it into unhealthy territory and ruin themselves mentally.

I wanted to know what you guys think about this and if he's right. If any experienced person could share theyre thoughts on this i would appreciate it 😄

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I’m really curious what people think.

Is it possible for two people to manifest the same SP at the same time?

Like imagine two different people are both affirming for the same person, visualizing them, persisting, etc. What would even happen in that situation? Would the stronger assumption “win”? Would reality split? Or is there no such thing as competing manifestations?

I’ve seen people say “everyone is you pushed out,” but then how does that work when multiple people want the exact same outcome involving the same person?

And is this even possible in the first place, or would one person naturally lose interest/change assumptions before it gets to that point?

Would love to hear different perspectives because this question genuinely messes with my brain lol

So I’ve been manifesting my ex for about 3 days, trying to get her to want to come back. Up until today, everything actually felt really solid. I was doing SATS, visualizing, and I didn’t feel desperate at all, more like a calm, certain “it’s already done” kind of feeling.

But this morning something strange happened. Out of nowhere, I felt a huge urge to check her social media. I haven’t had that feeling for over a month, it was like I stopped thinking and my body just made me check.

And yeah… that was a mistake.

I saw that she posted pictures of her and her new boyfriend kissing. On TikTok, she reposted a bunch of things about how much she loves him—calling him cute, innocent, all that typical love talk. It hit me really hard. Honestly, it felt like someone stabbed me in the chest.

For the first time since I started manifesting, I felt real doubt. Thoughts like:“Is this actually working?”“Is any of this even real?”“Am I just being delusional?”“Can you even manifest another person?”“Is this going to mess me up mentally?”

Before this, everything felt so natural, like we were already back together in my mind. But seeing that completely threw me off. I started spiraling, searching things like “can you really manifest someone,” and I couldn’t focus on anything all day because this situation kept coming back to me.

My faith is slowly coming back now, but that moment really shook me.

For context: she broke up with me about 6 months ago and got into a new relationship just 2 weeks later. I went no contact around 2–3 months ago. I still think about her every day.

I’ve noticed some “movement” too, like her friends randomly watching my stories, and she even blocked me out of nowhere recently, even though I hadn’t messaged her.

Before committing to manifesting her, I tried the ladder technique to see if any of this is real. It kind of worked:

• The next day, I randomly saw a ladder
• Later, while sitting on a bench, a guy literally carried a metal ladder right in front of me

That made me think maybe this is real, so I decided to fully commit.

But now I feel lost.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I really want this to be real, and I miss her even more after seeing all that. While I was manifesting, it didn’t hurt this much, I was more like “yeah, of course I can get her back.” Now it feels way more emotional again.

I’ve also started having thoughts like: doesn’t this seem kind of unrealistic? That just by thinking and feeling in a certain way, we can somehow change the feelings of another completely separate person?

That doubt hit me hard too.

I still believe that one day I’ll have a success story… I’m just really confused right now and don’t know what to think.

Any advice would really help. Thanks for reading.

So I’ve been reading about manifesting and Neville Goddard for some time now, and I feel like I already understand the whole concept. It feels very surreal to me that there could actually be an explanation for so many things that have happened in my life, and that I might be able to use this to my advantage.

The problem I have is fear of losing myself if I fully commit to it. I’m ready to let go of fear and the logical/realistic part of me that says this won’t work, but I’m scared that if I do, I’ll become delusional and start living only in my head.

For example, let’s say I want to manifest someone into my life. Wouldn’t it make me lose myself if I keep telling myself they’re already here? I’m scared I’ll lose touch with reality in the process and become insane.

If I visualize scenes of what I want, won’t that turn into living in a fantasy that isn’t even real? Does that mean having fantasies about romantic or sexual scenes with someone is also manifesting those scenes?

This part of me is really holding me back, but what if it’s actually trying to protect me from something harmful? What if letting that part go would make me lose my mind?

I want to start visualizing and doing SATS (state akin to sleep), but I’m honestly scared that letting go of all doubt and fear might be dangerous for me.

Is this normal for someone starting their journey with manifesting?

I was thinking of starting with something small and simple, like the ladder method, just to see if any of this actually works and to have some kind of proof that I really can create the life I want.

It also feels strange that simply thinking in a certain way could manifest something into reality. How could my way of thinking make a completely different person decide to message me?

I really love this subreddit because it makes you feel powerful, like you can achieve anything. But I also fear it might just be a coping mechanism. Has anyone here ever had real proof of their manifestation working, or am I just believing success stories because I want to?

I’m sorry if this is just my fear talking, but I feel like if I could get answers to these worries, I could finally let go of that fear and start using my full potential to become successful and happy.

Thanks in advance!!!
