- I didn't ...

I didn't go seek help
right away for years

for the reason being
was I guess I didn't

trust anybody

and I didn't want to talk
about things that

have happened

because I felt if I
talked about 'em

then I would just
keep 'em in my brain.

If I could push 'em to
the back of my mind,

I would think
they'd go away,

which didn't happen.

I guess I felt guilty
and I didn't want to

talk to anybody

because I guess I felt
guilty for the things

that I saw, the things
that happened.
