obviously I am not speaking for everyone living wtih this burden, but yea, when you try for years to get it to go away and it still persists, you might eventually start believing not only that it is real (in its own way, and it very well could be) but also that it is just another part of you, some other dimension of your self that you have little control over. It sucks. thats how it went for me, anyway.
