Reclaiming Freedom: Battling Anxiety with DARE’s Support

I was always a person that was out and about with no worries.

When the pandemic hit, I got my first anxiety/panic attack.

I was told I have GAD, Agoraphobia, Panic Disorder, PTSD, and Depression. I thought that these labels would hold me down and I let them sink me.

With the help of DARE, the DARE community, My therapist and God – three years later I’m taking my life back 1 day at a time.

This summer alone I have done things that I thought I would never be able to do again. Thank you DARE!
