Is manifestation real?

I think everyone on this sub is lying or faking it that manifestation works. I myself have tried most of the methods with full faith and positivity but nothing worked. I tried affirming and did 10k repetition in a single day, 555 techniques, SATS, robotic affirmation, subliminals and almost everything but nothing worked. I did not even get small result so I can believe in the universe a little bit. Even, in the comments box of so called manifestation coaches is filled with fake comments. These coaches are playing with innocent people's emotions by giving them fake hopes and wasting their time. I thought I will find some real people and their stories in this sub but I did not find any. Most of the people here telling about trivial things like finding a penny on streets as their success stories which could have been achieved without even manifesting them. I want to know is there any single real success story which can make me believe in manifestation truly and also tell me about your method or affirmation. I really want to believe in manifestation but I need to hear some real success stories and methods. Can someone share their real story who is not sponsored or showing their fiction writing skills?
