I was having a panic attack a few minutes moments ago and listening to this made me giggle a soothed my anxiety. Thank you so much. I’m going to save this to use again later if needed. I’m getting better at the Dare response but every now and then I fall back and all of sudden get a panic attack again. I struggle to shake it off and need a video or the app to help. Thank you. I don’t think anyone knows how much the dare response has helped, it saved by life when I was starting to become hopeless because I didn’t know there was a community for me. ❤❤❤
You girls are amazing My wife is a nurse She’s talked me back to reality so many times It’s so simple what y’all are saying….but I’m impatient and I want this to GO away Now I’m getting better at just letting the feeling come and go without acknowledging them ❤❤
Went to a mall today thanks to this podcast, there was an hour of lead up and high anxiety cause I couldnt leave till my phone was charged. Almost didn't go, but once I got there it was basically fine and had the podcast on in the background as support, I felt miserable but at least I was able to buy some things I'd been putting off and there were a few good experiences, like seeing all the Chritmas things and some nice exchanges with sales people. If not for dare I would've been so concerned at how I felt and labelled the whole experience as a failure.
What i can’t understand ‘ is how i can understand all aspects of anxiety and let the physical symptoms play out properly , completely feel better and then all of a sudden i’m worrying about a real life problem or catastrophe about a new relationship i’m in , i get emotional my appetite gets less than less , then all of a sudden i wake up sensatized once again and have to start all over with the same process ‘ it’s like i get all better and then fall back in , I think anxiety is more then just anxiety, it’s a learned mindset . If you understand sensitization , but your mind has been wired since a child to repeat the cycle how can you break it ‘ i don’t fear anxiety or the sensation, but can’t handle the emotions and brain fog and repeated physical sensations ‘ it’s gets repetitious …
So by the logic here we are meant to be uncomfortable for life pretty much going with the ups and downs but not worry about it . It took me two years to really feel better . Still getting better but I had to change my whole lifestyle what I ate and did etc
Does the DARE method works also for people withrawaling from Benzos? (Xanax, Klonopin etc). The high anxiety is then happening because we have underworking gaba receptors, does it matter when it comes to using this method?
How can you stop…. X , don’t be so eager to stop it and work more on accepting it to the best of your ability. Accepting it doesn’t mean you have to like it. Wanting it to go away is precisely the anxiety that keeps it alive. Wanting it to go away IS the anxiety.
Hi . I’m suffering from bad anxiety . My son is being cruel to me , saying I’m to blame for this anxiety . I’m thinking of taking all my meds & just going to bed & not waken up . I’m very serious .
Sorry to hear this, it’s hard for those who have never experienced it to understand why we sometimes can’t snap out of it. Especially at the beginning when we haven’t learned acceptance all the way. Things will get easier with time
Dear DARE, How do you relate/anchor yourself to things that normaly bring you pleasure/happines/value when It is hard to find pleausure in them during periods of prolonged anxiety, even though you are aware and acceptful of your anxiety?
THE BEST CHANNEL FOR ANXIETY hands down
DARE needs to be taught in schooools!! make a program or go talk to schools that would be amazing!
It is
I agree!

I'm in the field and have to say, You two really know your stuff! I wish I would have found you a few years ago.

Michelle and Aida are so both so pretty.
That's all I have to say
That is true but not important for the great job in helping people as they are doing.

@@SmithSmith-lb2ce I am tapering slowly don't worry. I just want to know if DARE is applicable. I wish I would get an answer from the author..
@@SmithSmith-lb2cethis is facts
I’m trying to lower Ativan slow I think DARE helps a small bit when I feel withdrawal
Please I am suffering from severe anxiety. I lost a brother who has been in my mind and triggering my anxiety.
What can I do to stop this
Sorry for your loss, difficult experiences bring out a lot of emotions realizing this is normal and accepting it will help
