John Crittenden was in the south tower of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. In this riveting historic program, John shares a first-person account of his escape from the tower in what was the worst terrorist attack on New York City and American soil. For John and many other survivors, the horror and effects of 9/11 never leaves. For the past 24 years, he has lived with the lasting effects of PTSD. He now shares how his experience impacted his relationships and his life. Through therapy, John is no longer alone in his journey. He is now using his own self-awareness to help other survivors & victims to seek help and grow from trauma they have been trying to forget.
