The Importance Of Finding Meaning In Suffering

Tony Fort says he was 10-years-old when he started hanging out with a man his mother knew. He says the man was nice to him, and he believed he was his best friend. Fort says, however, that the man also groomed him, drugged him, sexually abused him, and eventually abducted him. Fort says he struggles every day with the childhood memories. “You have a lot of unfinished emotional business,” Dr. Phil tells Fort on Tuesday’s episode, "'Surviving Evil' Kidnapped And Abused: Former Victims Speak Out." "I want you to know how to handle this, how to deal with this where you don’t have to actively hurt from this every day."
