How do you cope with a tsunami?
Not a metaphorical tsunami. An actual tsunami.
In 2011, Dylan was in Japan when the tsunami struck.
Her doctors tried to measure her PTSD with numbers and checkboxes and questionnaires.
What does this do to our understanding of ourselves and our experiences?
And what does it do when you begin to measure yourself in a new way? What happens when you leave the world of checkboxes... for comics?
Quote of the episode: "I wish you could get your prescription and collect a comic."
(PS: I flippin' loved this conversation.)
