"Hello Sam,
I first of all want to thank God for leading me into finding your program, and making all of this possible, and second of all, I want to thank YOU for actually creating this amazing program and changing my life for the better (with God’s permission).
It’s been over a month since I started your program, and everyday, my life has been getting better and better in terms of confidence.
YOU are so fricking right. Social anxiety is not about not knowing what to say or how to act or s**t like that, It’s having confidence with yourself and what you are DOING now, and everything else falls into place. Because us people with social anxiety ALREADY know what to say and what to do. We THINK we don’t, because that’s what SA makes us feel like.
It’s not about being fu***ng born with it or it’s not a genetic disease or whatever, it’s none of that s**t. I CANT BELIEVE ITS POSSIBLE TO CURE IT like this. I can’t believe our subconscious minds can be consciously changed like this. How the hell doesn’t the doctors know the real root cause of social anxiety? What the hell? Without medication, therapy, or surgery? No way!
Because I feel more confident with myself and what I do and who I am and because I no longer feel that what I’m doing is wrong or what I’m doing is stupid or flawed or not ‘normal’, I now realised that I actually do know how to interact with people. I do know what to say. You made me realise that. I really do feel like the daily re programming is starting to work now, and because I haven’t finished it fully yet and haven’t done it for very long, I can only imagine my confidence only getting better and better (Inshallah). So, I’ll give you another update when I feel like I 100% cured my social anxiety (inshallah).
Plus, ITS NOT ABOUT GETTING better at talking or exposure therapy or practicing the things you fear etc etc.
Because, you can do that all you want, if you don’t have confidence in yourself and who you are now, and have confidence with the person you are NOW, you will never beat SA. Practice all you want, that deep fear and feeling of the anxiety will still be there.
I’ll be honest, at first, it’s difficult to stay motivated because you don’t see immediate results from the daily programming and the things you need to do before bed. At first, I struggled a lot with stage 2 pain where I felt like I should be nervous and I was doubting myself. But that is starting to go away after time. So please, your new students need to know that this s**t takes time, and please they need to know that they have to keep going even though it may feel like nothing is happening.
I still haven’t fully finished the program, and so I’d say my social anxiety is cured around 70-80% so far, but that’s because I still haven’t finished it. I’m going with a slow, steady place, and Inshallah (God willing) I’m getting there.
Yes, I may get nervous before presentations or interviews, but so fu***ng what, everyone does. That’s a normal natural response. Prime ministers get nervous before their speeches lool. Even the most confident arrogant person in the world would. The only thing that is a problem is the extreme fear that comes with SA that makes you unemployed because you completely avoid them, but that’s gone now.
I want to thank God for making all of this possible again, and I will remember you for the rest of my life. I want to stay humble for ever, and I will forever be a good person and just be confident with myself. I will do the basic things normal people are able to do.
Onwards and upwards from now on. Alhamdullilah.
Have a great day, Sam."
