If you get up each morning and say trans are hecking valedirino, even if you don't believe it, you are doing it and your T will drop accordingly.
Allow me to ramble in a non-sequitur a little bit; my mom is a gardener, and has been for many decades of her life. I worked at a data center for a year-ish, and there were various potted plants scattered around the otherwise bleak facility for the sake of decoration. One of these plants was an orchid plant suspended in a clear vase of water. Since the hired plant attendant didn't really take care of the plants, only replace them once they had withered and died, I asked to take home the orchid and give it to my mom to play with. For the last several years not only has it not died, but it is now twice as big, and this past summer threw out 7 gigantic flower blooms for weeks before they dropped off.
I believe very strongly in the sort of magic that internet women call "manifestation." There's a sort of "believing to make it real" that I've seen over the years from people who make drastic life changes like when they quit hard drugs or lose tons of weight. Believing it makes it true to you, and you don't give yourself any option but to keep going in that direction, like psychic inertia.
When people get slowly brainwashed into believing NPC ideas, it's just like you said; you start to behave as though it's true and the idea picks up speed and becomes extremely difficult and damaging to change, even more so when you're surrounded by people who believe all those same things and attack you for deviating from them.
