Welcome to episode 179 with my guest Tyler W. This episode is sponsored by Pillpack, the online

pharmacy that delivers convenient, pre-sorted meds right to your front door. No more waiting

online at retail pharmacies. It doesn't cost you penny more, and you can support the show.

By just checking out the website, Pillpack.com-slashed-happy-hour. I'm Paul Gilmarton. This is the

metal illness happy hour. Uh, two hours? I think we're gonna be around two hours today. Maybe a little less.

also the Twitter name you can follow me at. And uh, go check out the website. You can join the forum.

pretty much every topic that you can imagine. And God bless the people in the forum when there's a,

a thread that hasn't been created yet that they think there should be one for. They let me know

and I do my best to create it and it's a beautiful thing. So go check that out. Go to the website,

take a survey, see how other people have filled out surveys. Or maybe you go and you support the

show. Maybe you throw us a couple of dollars through PayPal. Huh? Maybe you do that. Um,
