I am glad that this was so good for you! I think I could that or something similar...I have similar issues about feeling invisible or being afraid to follow my Dream (yes, singular) or having trouble connecting to compassion. I had no idea that those issues were so potent for you..especially the skin condition. :(
The first time I read this point, the bit about everyone dealing with their own suff juped out of me. I have imbibed some important lessons in the past few years, mainly from 12-steppers and from therapy
1) If I'm mad at someone, it's usually more based in my own fear than in anything they did. 2) If someone is mad at me, it is similarly unlikely about me. 3) There are other emotions that may be secondary to deeper processes.
These things are hard to remember, but invaluable.
Extra points, BTW, for use of the word "grok". Have you ever read "Stranger in a Strange Land"?
