That looks correct, if you mean to say "by myself I recover (grow strong)".

Seriously good luck to you mate. Perhaps you should try Latin it will help take your mind of things and, if you get to a fair level, will make you rise above it. Here's the link to the best Latin beginner's book ever to get you started if you so wish: http://www.textkit.com/learn/ID/108/author_id/13/. You can work through it at your own pace, it has a simple lay out: you read it, understand and learn the lesson's principles, learn also the vocabulary to which you are directed (it's all in the book) then do the exercises.
