Leo glad to see your trying it out! I'll be honest, Stage 1 was one of the hardest months in the past year. I say that because I went from having a lot of success before using it to going through many stages of depression. Obviously, each person is different and will experience different effects but I just want to say it's A LOT of negative replacement and takes a bit of time. I'm into stage 2 and I'm not even done with negative replacement. Just keep using it and do what you feel comfortable doing. The past month I barely went out, I didn't want to, didn't even want to talk to my friends/girls even though it sucks and I was left in my room the majority of the time I know that I'm taking a huge step in my life and completely ridding myself of all the negativity that kept me down for the majority of my life. I went through the confidence drop and self-conscious stages for a while. It sucks but when you get through it all it feels really good to know you no longer have to worry about these things. In fact, you don't even think about them anymore! Something those affirmations could have never done for me. It's totally worth it, just stay strong! Keep it up!
