In this episode of Scripps Tech, a Marine veteran opens up about dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder after returning from combat operations overseas. Christopher Merkle suffered for over a decade before reaching out for help.
He was connected with Dr. Skip Rizzo, who created Bravemind, a virtual reality-based exposure therapy for PTSD.
"It's about getting in the trenches and confronting and reprocessing those difficult emotional memories," Rizzo said.
This episode also features Phil Torres taking a ride in a driverless vehicle in San Francisco. You'll see exactly how these vehicles account for other cars and people on the road.
