And the alcohol, that's also a very common issue that I see.

People are both very concerned about the impact of drinking on medication

and also are afraid to talk to the doctors about it.

Hey everybody, before we start the show, I want to make a couple disclaimers.

This show does cover a wide variety of topics related to mental health and life in general,

and some of those could be sensitive for you.

I want to simultaneously encourage you to be brave

in consuming difficult content but also respect and recognize your limitations.

So please use your best judgment. I will never be offended if you need to skip a question or an episode entirely, but feel free to feel it out, check out the episode and just see what happens. If you need to skip, that's okay, but you know, feel free to give it a shot first.

I also need to say that while I am a psychologist I'm not your

psychologist and I'm not your therapist. This is not intended to be direct medical advice and

you should not use this as a substitute for professional help. So with those said let's go ahead and

get into the show. All right, hello friends of all varieties, this is the Hardcore Health Podcast episode 334.

I'm your host Dr. Robert Duff, aka Duff the Psych.

I make mental health content for real people just like you and today I have a

question and answer episode with two really interesting questions from listeners like

yourselves. If you'd like to shoot me a question for a future episode of the show, please

give me an email at duff the psych at gmail.com or go to my website duff the psych

dot com and use the contact form there.

Speaking of the website,

we're going to be doing a little bit of,

migrating of hosts and some stuff on the back end
