The DARE app is an evidence based training program to help people overcome anxiety, panic attacks, worry, and insomnia. It is rooted in MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress reduction), MBCT (Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy) and ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) which are widely-used and empirically-supported therapeutic approaches for overcoming anxiety. In their essence MBSR, MBCT and ACT are psychological interventions that have at their core the practice of mindfulness -an open non-judgemental and accepting way of relating to anxiety.

I have a thought line of questions for which I wish I could get a "sanity check". Say you have episodes of lightheadedness, nausea, peripheral paraesthesia, and even chest discomfort (repeatedly found "normal in the ER until you don't go anymore). You check your pulse and the rate and the rhythm are normal. What are the chances that the sensation is caused by an INOTROPIC deficiency for some reason? (I'm just imagining vasospasm, for lack of anything else to consider.) And say you check blood pressure too, and it's normal. Now what are the chances? A little background info: I have had these episodes for over two years, ever since a tickborne illness and long COVID triggered an onset of ectopic episodes and even paroxysmal SVT, which all went away within a year. Now I just have the weird sensations. And it is absolutely gastrointestinal related, especially after too much coffee, too much sitting (driving or at a computer), and most powerfully leading up to a bowel movement, triggering even a cold sweat and achy legs.
So I have. Been feeling my pulse strong and I can visibly see my pulse jumping in my stomach and feel it all over. Im dealing with anxiety and i have been to the doctor 4 times already. Does anyone on here have similar symptoms. And is it normal ?
Is there anyone that has underlying anxiety that drives them into deep dives into theology? I'm a Christian and I don't know what I believe in certain things, deconstructing I guess, so it's been overwhelming me to the point of insomnia
Thank you, Dr. Sally. This is the last piece that I needed to be set free when she said that “Let Go and Surrender. Believing and Trusting that Thought are Just Thoughts.” Having faith to a God + this is the key that set me free. Thank you!
I feel a lil better... i keep feeling like i cant breathe and my heart is beating so fast.. this help some.. still a little jittery.. this is all new to me
This is what I experience to a tee and the ruminating is horrible which keeps me stuck bc it jumps from one thing to another then will some how connect back to the initial thought and it starts all over again
Great information. Dare and Claire Weekes have helped lessen my anxiety. Question about about the approach of being stuck to the ground through the panic - my anxiety is more constant so how do I get on with my day but not give the impression I’m running away from anxiety. Any suggestions/self talk would be appreciated 🌞
This was so useful! Could you do more of these videos? Having the whole concept from more people's point of views, in different words really helped me to absorb the 'mindset'.
I'm still learning to drive and I'm terrified that I'm going to hit a person or animal. My issue is that my anxiety becomes so severe that I completely dissociate and almost 'black out' and I'm not aware of anything that's happening. People tell me it will get better as I get more experience but I have a diagnosed dissociative disorder and I'm scared it won't get better :(
@@jennyoshea1958 They have! But to understand that, u have to listen more carefuly to them and NOT try and focus how to get rid of your anxiety/panic attack while listening to them. Because what DARE is about is teaching you how to BE with the anxious state, whatever that is. They never mentioned getting rid of the anxiety because guess what, there isnt a single human being who wont experience anxiety/panic attack in their life, anxiety is basic physiology trying to keep u alive. That's why Michelle and Aida make it sound funny because tbh there is nothing "wrong" with anyone experiencing that, what is wrong is searching for a way to get rid of the feeling whatever that is. And if you want to hear those people who make anxiety sound as the next disease impossible to be cured but only managed, then you are in the wrong channel.
My fear of driving anxiety comes From driving In snow storms and fog . I had an episode of full body shaking . 6 years ago was the Last time I drove on the highway. My heart rate goes 155 . In town driving Is ok.
Thank u for explaining something i have been having issues with understanding. I have had times in my life where i was so stressed that i would start to physically shake uncontrollably. I always knew it was my anxiety, but I couldn't understand how i could easily move on from that symptom once it had run its course, but i can't do the same now. The fear of this unknown new symptom that was slowly building is what is keeping me from moving on. Thank you 💙
