Derrick May summarizes his journey as a lifelong project. It unarguably has been a bumpy ride on a treacherous road through storm after storm.
Despite that, he keeps pushing through until he falls... then he picks himself up and pushes through again.
Sexually molested as a child, Derrick chose a life in the Canadian Armed Forces to get away from his hometown of Saint John, New Brunswick. Though he never deployed to a combat zone, he survived trauma in the military when he was once again sexually assaulted by his brothers in arms.
During the episode, Derrick talks about his struggles with alcohol, violence, gambling, weight gain, intimate relationships, social dissociation and the military police, as well as what he has done to pull himself through all the fires before him.
