Hello all,
I am brand new here and have been having SUCH a hard time maintaining a positive state. I continue to look at what is and often go further and make what is even worse in my mind. I tend to go to the worst case scenario quite often I think as a defense mechanism, self preservation if you will. and it's so hard to get out of.
Here's my conundrum. Law of attraction (LOA) keeps hope alive and therefore, I have not let go of my person (ex in this case) because I plan on manifesting him back. But if it weren't for knowing about LOA, I likely would have let go a long time ago and therefore, be in a much better position/emotional state to manifest him back. It's pretty ironic.
Can anyone help me stay in alignment? I don't have full trust in LOA at this point as I am rather new to it so I can't use my faith as an "excuse" to stay in a good emotional place.
UGH! This is so frustrating.... I don't know what to do.

Not that I agree with you 100%, but I think you are onto something. You use LOA all of the time it's not new it's always existed you'll always use LOA so you're not "new" to LOA you're new to all of the information about LOA thats out there. Now I don't know what you have looked up and watched but I'm sure whatever you have done has probably confused the heck out of you. You feel like you need to this, that, and then this and then that. Someone says one thing, and some other LOA "teacher" says the opposite. You are probably just confused. And I totally understand that. My advice would be to line up with the energy which is HAPPINESS, stick to things that make you feel good don't do things that feel like such a force to do. If it's watching The Secret over and over again, do it. Do things that actually make you feel happy. And then if you want to incorporate one of those routines after you've done those things try visualizing or scripting or something like that, OR act as if.
I agree with you when you say you feel like if you didn't know about LOA you would have let go by now and most likely would have this person back. Which seems to be quite common in the getting back together stories I have seen. A lot of the times I notice people just going on with their life and probably just randomly saying "I hope we get back together" and it happens.

Sweetlove has explained LoA in a very nice and simple manner and I completely agree with what she says.
Ask.Believe. Receive.
This is the simple LoA formula. You send out your intention to the Universe. You have complete faith and trust that it will happen. And you live your life as if you have received it already.
When your boyfriend is back with you, you will obviously be in a happy and content state of mind and that’s what you have to do now. Don’t send out signals of missing him in your life but pretend that he is there with you. Visualise you two having a good time or something. Focus on the happy times together.
But try and not contact him for sometime, reason being let any unsettled feelings subside first. Try Veronica’s 25day challenge available on YouTube. It definitely helps in us feeling better about ourselves, which is very important.
I am no one to promise that this will work 100% but it is the correct LoA path.

Here's a success story about only visualizing to receive their desired outcome. This story is simple the only "technique" she used was visualizing! It's fine to get a lot of info but if you find it confusing you maybe just stop and get simple with it. Like
I said, line up with happiness and do whatever technique you find suits you. Think of things you've manifested before with ease!

That’s a great story
Honestly, do you even need actively do any techniques? Do you think just feeling good/happy is enough to manifest?
I mean, I honestly think we all visualize. We might not even realize it at times, but especially when we are at a good place. We drift off and visualize what we want

Honestly, in some cases I think techniques do help people especially for desires that are specific like getting a specific person (but then again there are people who get their love back/specific person without doing anything but saying or thinking it), or maybe you desire a new home and wonder where you're going to get the money for the home. I think techniques are fun and are a good aide in achieving your bliss and happiness back. Personally, I can literally just pray like I always have before I knew what LOA was. I just always knew God was real. I have a friend who has been manifesting things her entire life and she didn't start doing any techniques until recently. Right now the only technique I am doing are Rhonda Byrne's tips from her book The Magic, meditating, subliminals and scripting/journaling and things I did before I knew about a lot of this!

It’s not just visualisation, it’s even the belief...the trust that it is happening, that makes it work.
The trust will come only when you are at a happy space in mind yourself. There is no room for doubts. Your visualisation also becomes stronger if you have faith that what you are asking for will be delivered to you.

First of all, I want to thank everyone for the responses, I really appreciate them.

Thanks Sweetlove I don't disagree about how confusion can happen (it has happened to me big time) or about the fact that LOA is active all the time (I know this) but that is not the issue here. Also, I know HOW to manifest, I have done it, I've manifested HIM back at one time but because I wasn't ready in other ways, it didn't last. My problem now is I cannot maintain alignment and if I try a method like Veronica's, I usually end up feeling worse than I did when I started. I just don't have enough faith in LOA (I am fairly new to using it deliberately) to risk my emotional state. Does that make sense? Like I said in the last part of my post, it has to do with hanging on and by doing so, taking a big risk that this won't work and I'll just end up even more hurt in the long run.

This is the problem though. I can't get into the good feeling state Veronica talks about, or should I say, I can't maintain it when I do. Emotionally, it's almost easier to stay "miserable" and stay prepared than it is to get into a happy state and live from the emotional place of what I want. I have so much doubt and so much fear (and definitely some of the feeling not good enough) that I can't maintain what Veronica is suggesting so when I try, I end up feeling worse than before sometimes.
I love Veronica's suggestions and techniques BUT I also think that you have to get to a certain place emotionally before you can do something like this. Something that no one ever talks about. What about letting negative emotions run their course? Like a grieving period if you will? Or figuring out how to get a place where you don't need this person so much that it doesn't feel like such an emotional risk? No one ever talks about that. They simply say "set your intention, feel good, be happy, and then you will manifest". No one ever talks about the grieving period or working through negative emotions first so you CAN maintain a good feeling most of the time. Where does that idea fit in to all of this?
Does that make sense?
Gratitude, I know to "ask, believe and receive" it's the "Believe" part I am having so much trouble with. I feel like I either need to really believe (which I don't at this point), be "over" him enough as to where the risk is not a factor, or be willing to take the risk and go for it. I'm just not comfortable with any of these things at this point.

You said you know how to manifest and you've done it before, including this person, so you know you can do it, but now you don't believe you can do it and you are full of doubts and fears and don't want to take the emotional risk of trying again and failing. That doesn't even make sense to have succeeded before but now believe you will fail or may fail. It sounds like you are already torturing yourself over this and in emotional pain anyway, so what have you got to lose? Everything in life involves risks. Leaving the house could result in getting hit by a car, but most people leave the house anyway because they want and need to live their lives and the risk of getting hit by a car is a possibility but not a probability. It doesn't happen most of the time.
I really think listening to or reading Neville Goddard would help you a lot. He was a master at using his imagination to create reality and made it his life's work to teach it to other people. Neville married his second wife by imagining it as an accomplished fact. They had a long and happy marriage together. Here are three of his lectures that I have found particularly helpful.
My favourite book of his is The Law and the Promise because it contains many letters from people telling him their own success stories in many areas of life that they achieved by following his teachings.

It's a big contradiction. What I should have said was it seems like I manifested him back because he did come back before in the way I asked but my mind goes into "what if that was a coincidence?" Also, he is now dating someone else which makes all this crap way worse.

But it's not on purpose, that's the thing. Also, if I am in emotional pain, don't I have to get out of it on order to manifest? According to Veronica I do. If someone said to me "You can manifest even if you feel like crap emotionally", that would make this so much easier. I wouldn't be beating myself up and doubting even stronger for feeling like crap on top of already feeling like crap....

This is so true. I was actually just think about this. I think my fear here is if I do the Veronica method and I start to spiral downward. I might manifest something unwanted (which if there is any truth to LOA, I totally manifested him dating someone else, UGH!)

I love Neville and his teachings. I am in a Neville inspired LOA group on Facebook but I will check out these links.
Thank you so much. I know this all sounds a bit crazy but this is how it's been for me. It's just been lousy with doubt and fear and I just can't seem to shake it enough to be in alignment more than I am not. I'm trying.
