| 0:00.0 | All righty then, let's do this. This is part three of my little three part series on my |
| 0:15.8 | experience with anxiety medication, antidepressants specifically between 1996 and 2005. So dudes and |
| 0:25.3 | dudes, welcome back to the anxious truth. This is podcast episode one, four, seven. This is part |
| 0:30.4 | three. I'm going to talk about my experience with antidepressant withdrawal would happen when I |
| 0:35.8 | stop taking the medication. So catch a couple things to get done before we do that. This is part three |
| 0:41.9 | of a little three part series. Like I said, so go listen to parts one and two before you listen |
| 0:46.0 | to this one. Please just it'll it'll really put the whole thing in perspective and it'll explain |
| 0:51.2 | my stance on medication and you know, I mean, I don't want to go over it again. So I did two |

| 1:43.1 | experience will be if you decide to stop taking antidepressants. But I can tell you this before |
| 1:47.7 | we start. I want to definitely want to say this. First of all, it's my experience. And if you did |
| 1:51.4 | not have this experience and you have not had problems taking antidepressants and you're happy with |
| 1:55.9 | your decision to do that, then I'm happy for you and I respect you. So there's no reason to roll in with |
