Why did I pay to torture myself?
What's wrong with me?
And then I'll be like...
No, if all these other people around me can do this, I can do this.
I survived nine months of being tortured and kidnapped.
If I can survive that, and all these other people haven't experienced that, not to judge them, because I know everyone has a story.
No, you can say that.
They probably haven't done that.
And so if they can do this, I can do this.
I would assume you understand.
There's Elizabeth Smart, who everyone thinks they know.
And then there's me.
How do you deal with that?
I mean, the people that have pity for me, they don't know me.
Do our mom people's pity?
No, but if it helps them feel better just to be like, I love you.
I'm so grateful you're alive.
