06:51why should I do anything for him?
06:52because he's your brother
07:27following the assessments
07:28we believe you have complex post-traumatic stress disorder
07:33or CPTSD
07:36throughout your life you've
07:40experienced significant trauma
07:43and it's now got to the point
07:44where it's difficult to control things
07:47so I'm weak
07:50is that what you hear I'm saying?
07:53no
07:53control
07:54no use
07:55equals
07:57weak
08:00those terms
08:02weak
08:04no use
08:05they feel familiar
08:08did you
08:10perhaps hear them growing up?
08:15my dad didn't love me
08:22oh well
08:24you have a harsh tone towards yourself
08:32you're looking forward to seeing your partner later
08:35Priya
08:36I understand you have children
08:41I am
08:44I need to keep a distance
08:48I need to
08:50protect them from me
08:51because
08:53because I'm
08:54I'm poisoned
08:56and they're
08:57and they deserve to be happy
09:00they deserve to be happy
09:03you're aware of
09:04you're aware of Grish Dijivan
09:06the life of the householder
09:10this has nothing to do with God
09:14much of what's been preoccupying you
09:18doing good
09:20being selfless
09:21protecting others
09:24it's central to the faith
09:27now most has shown those values by
09:29compassion
09:30and love within the family unit
09:33others aren't
09:35why do you
09:37why do you keep going there?
09:40I blame myself
09:41no one else
09:43you do acknowledge
09:44a problematic relationship
09:47with the paternal figures in your life
09:49no
09:51no
09:51not anymore
09:53because
09:54they are dead
10:00they're dead
10:00they're dead
10:03death
10:04often emphasizes the shadow
10:07I can help build an understanding of who you are Ravi
10:10and how you got here
10:14I understand
10:15it feels like a lot has been taken away
10:18but my aim
10:20is to give you back control
10:24so how about we both work together with that in mind
10:46have you been looking for a midnight snack in the dark again?

10:53who's going to tell you off about that
