(slow, dramatic music)
- [Female Voice]
Before treatment,
my life was extremely chaotic.
Whether it was my trauma,
or everything else going on,
I just, I couldn't get
a grip on anything.
A lot of hurt.
A lot of isolation.
I hid from everybody.
(slow, dramatic music)
I was homeless, and
had to sleep in Penn Station.
I just couldn't deal
with being around people,
because I was so overwhelmed
with fear and anxiety.
I wasn't sure who
was there to hurt me.
The anxiety would be a ten.

(moves into uptempo music)
- Hi! (laughter) How are you?
- Since I've gotten treatment,
my quality of life has
definitely improved.
I enjoy being out in
public, with people.
And now I'm always telling, my
husband or whoever I'm with,
I'm like, "Come on,
guys, let's be outside!"
You know, I don't like
being stuck inside.
- At 110 degree
weather, in the south.
- I'm thinking more in the
positive side of things.
(laughter)
- Oh my gosh.
- Cheers
- I don't think I could have
done it without therapy.
Because,
I didn't have,
the knowledge of
what was occurring,
within my brain, specifically.
- I don't know what this is yet.
- So if I hadn't sought therapy,
I would have just
continued to ignore it
and just keep things inside.
- No oh! (laughter)
- It's definitely, nice to
be able to feel supported
and to not be isolated.
To know that I'm
not an army of one,
but actually an army of many.
So, it's great.
