Transcript

Me and my wife was going through relationship problems

at the time.

We weren't married then but there were certain things

that was putting a damper on our relationship and that just.

I'm a very loving person and I take family values to,

I don't know, probably like way high and to the right

or something like that.

But however, sometimes it just don't go the way it's supposed

to and things happen.

I'm not going to get into it but I just snapped.

You know, once I snapped, I kept snapping.

There was no stopping it.

And then to where it got too bad to where it got

into a physical form then it's like, OK,

I need to get some help.
