0:00.0 | We all have this idea of normal, right? And everybody's different, everybody's very different. |
0:14.4 | I mean, I didn't get to ask you how much a bad comment on social media bothers you. |
0:18.6 | I get the feeling from you having known you for years that you can rush you off a little |
0:21.9 | more quickly than I do, but I brush you off a little more quickly than other people |
0:25.2 | and Joe, it really affects you possibly for days, right? But that's a spectrum, right? |
0:30.0 | So it's not about mental health issues, not necessarily about going, |
0:35.1 | there's normal and there's there's a mental health problem. It's certain things are magnified |
0:39.4 | for you, but those are still relatively quote unquote normal things. And then there are things |

1:20.3 | just because I have appeared to you, because I think about killing myself, but you get your |
1:24.4 | scared to leave your house, that, that means your thing is not worse or better than mine. |
1:29.6 | We're different people. Yeah. It's still, and suffering from a, from, well, your mental health |
1:33.9 | is suffering. Yeah, absolutely. You don't even necessarily have to have a disorder for your |
1:37.3 | mental health to suffer, I guess. 100%. Absolutely, especially with, you know, the, the year |
