Prolonged Exposure was very personal.

You, I repeated myself about a million times about what I did

into a tape recorder where I would be honest with myself

and I would listen back to it and realize

that there wasn't anything I could do.

My stories were consistent in my choices.

My choices were consistent because of what happened.

I didn't feel that me doing it by myself

and not seeking treatment was gonna be beneficial.

So going to PE was actually an advance forward.

It was a step.

It was a progression in the direction that I wanted to move.
