-You can also tell discord.py to process commands as usual after you're done processing messages with [`bot.process_commands()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands). However, this method isn't recommended as it does not allow you to add multiple `on_message` handlers.
