0:00.0	Welcome to episode 399 with my guest, Emma.
0:05.9	I'm Paul Gilmarten, this is the Metal Illness Happy Hour, a place for honesty about all
0:09.9	the battles in our heads.
0:11.8	From medically diagnosed conditions, past traumas, and sexual dysfunction to everyday
0:17.0	compulsive negative thinking.
0:19.2	The show's not meant to be a substitute for professional metal counseling, I'm not
