I didn't know if I was going to be able to handle it, quite honestly.

Transcript

I was extremely worried about

receiving treatment for my PTSD.

I had worked so hard

and spent so many years

trying to bury

all of those memories.

And the VA said, no, we want to

bring those all right back up.

And that scared

the crap out of me.

I didn't know

if I was going to be able

to handle it, quite honestly.
