I think of your entire life as a pie.
When you first have PTSD and you don't understand it
and you've got a lot of symptoms and you don't know how to
integrate them into your life,
that PTSD is going to take up a very large piece of the pie.
Maybe even half, right?
And so your job is to figure out how to push the two edges
of the PTSD into as small a piece of the pie as possible.
And you need lots and lots of things to help you brace
that piece of the pie into a very small piece
so that you can fill your life up
with all of the other things.
You're never going to have PTSD not be part
of your pie -- of course
it's going to be part of your pie, you had a real experience.
But you can have it be a small piece,
a piece that has taught you a tremendous amount of wisdom,
and a piece that you can keep small.
But you can't do any of that if you don't come for treatment.
