Dare: Panic & Anxiety Relief Reviews

by Bufferrabbit

I have dealt with severe anxiety for 10 plus years. My anxiety is more health anxiety. I have lost multiple jobs, relationships time with my children and so much more. I have been to the emergency room 12 times over the last decade with 5 of those times being over the last 3 months. They ran blood work, x-rays and EKGs every time and every time things were normal. I got to the point I was trying to admit myself to the psych ward. I was out of options I had nowhere else to turn. I wasn’t getting answers from my doctors that were helping me at all. I had all but given up. I was staying in bed just waiting to die. I was sure it was gonna happen. Then one day I was looking on Dare Store for ways to help anxiety. I downloaded four apps and this app was the third app I opened and started just listening to without much expectations. To my surprise every single word that he spoke was like Dare was made just for me. Nobody had ever spoke to Me or explained it in such a way that it just clicked everything made sense. Within days I knew I would be okay, within 5 days I was better than I had been in years. It has now been a couple of months and I started going to the gym, eating better and trying to live my best life. Dare will be in my phone forever. I tell anyone that will listen about Dare. It truly has changed my life.

I’m new to Dare and just so happened to find it by chance (thankfully) I have been going through ALOT this past year due to the pandemic and unfortunately this is where my anxiety showed its awful self to me again. It has been EXTREMELY rough for me, but Dare has given me hope! Breathing exercises, meditations, immediate SOS help, the daily affirmations and so much more! I have NEVER seen an app or the creators off “help” if you cannot afford it, this to me shows me that they truly are unique and they honestly care about people! I’m on day 3 but honestly I’m feeling a little bit better each day! Hopefully with the help of Dare I can get out of this anxiety funk and finally be free!
Thank you so so much for Dare and helping people like me!

I ,Like so many others, have been dealing with anxiety for a long time. It is not a pleasant experience and I hated waking up every day afraid. I hated how my sleep and appetite were being affected. I decided along with therapy, I needed some other help. I found Dare and decided I had nothing left to lose. But after only a few days of use, I felt better than I have in months! So many great audios for not only anxiety, but insomnia, worry, and many more relatable categories. The sos section has saved me from staying up late with a panic attack. Dare has helped me feel good again. I highly recommend for anyone who is suffering from anxiety!

I found myself in search for help during my challenges back in 2020. I found this app through a recommendation of a friend and while I was very skeptical after trying many avenues to find answers I can say without a doubt that the method has helped me dearly with my Cardiophobia and general anxiety. While I can’t give it all the credit (Both my Counselor and The wise words of Harry Barry book are appreciated as well)I find it as a great additional tool to tackle on these woes. Dare makes it convenient and easier to access and the SOS was a godsend through many nights of nightly panic attacks. Although my journey is far from over I am willing yo this app on.

I usually never write reviews but Dare deserves it! I have dealt with anxiety basically all my life but a few weeks ago it came back full force. Health anxiety had me running to the doctors daily, intrusive thoughts had me thinking I was crazy, the sensations the come along with generalized anxiety were taking a toll on me physically and mentally. I lost 11lbs in a week because I had to force myself to eat. Doctor prescribed me a medication that made it worse and then my mom found Dare. She actually forced me to use it and I thank god everyday because of it. I can now ride out the waves of adrenaline and calm back down, I have my full appetite back and am gaining my weight back. I’m able to push myself out of my comfort zone regularly and I get through it! Last night I noticed I was able to just let intrusive thoughts float by while I was reading to my daughter and that’s something that I usually stop and try to block for years now. I never noticed how much I let my anxiety control me until I started Dare. Currently waiting for my hard copy of the book and workbook to get here. I couldn’t recommend this enough. Take control of your life! Dare is a game changer as long as YOU are willing to put in the work to get there.

My life was a series of panic attacks. The last and most painful landing me in the ER because I was sure my potassium was so low due to cramping and heart palpitations. I went home from the ER discouraged because they could not “fix” me and diagnosed me with a major panic attack. I decided to search Dare Store, just to see what was out there and I found this program. The this app program is different. It’s about embracing the panic. Getting comfortable with it. Surviving. This is a totally different approach than I had ever seen and you know what? It works. I have been able to control my panic. To ride out the waves. It’s life changing. Get the premium version. You won’t be sorry!

by Thejourneyisthedestination

I believe in the idea of the this app response. I’ve tried it. It works. And I think anyone struggling with anxiety, ( specifically physical anxiety) is going to greatly benefit from it. Now when my anxiety manifests into fearful intrusive thoughts, or obsessive thoughts, I find the this app response a lot harder to implement. Maybe it’s just me, but once I’m experiencing that type of anxiety, I need medication. And then once I’ve brought my cortisol levels down, I can then implement this app for those thoughts in a very helpful way. I would definitely recommend the this app response, and have as matter of fact. But I just don’t want people to think it’s a magic method. B/c for me, medication is absolutely necessary in conjunction with this app.

I have always had OCD,anxiety and depression but this year I started having intrusive thoughts and health anxiety like never before to the point where I couldn’t hold jobs or function like I used too…I’m so thankful for Dare…just knowing that other people have these bizarre disturbing thoughts at times due to anxiety makes me feel like I’m not alone…I thought I was going crazy but listening to these audios when I’m losing control helps me so much. I tried going without medication but at this time I can’t so I use these audios to help in conjunction with that. I have every kind of anxiety mentioned on these audios , I’m just greatful for you guys who created Dare. Baby steps…its all a process hang in there to anyone who’s suffering.

I am embarrassed. I have been using Dare for about 4 years and am JUST writing a review. I also finally caved and got the premium version (seriously just do it.) during this period of highhhh anxiety for me. Dare is perfect in every way. I dependent on it so much for so many things. Theres so many meditation apps out there i find myself just browsing for 15 min to find what i need and thats frustrating. Dare is clear and to the point i have what i need in seconds. It touches on every single anxious situation, sensation, perception etc etc. theres few things in my life that i am unbelievably grateful for - passionflower for anxiety is one of them, as well as Dare. I am forever in gratitude for this tool. Thank you thank you thank you

This so far has helped me come out of a bad panic attack I just had a few minutes ago. I am truly shocked at how much Dare helped. I had an attack so bad that I couldn’t walk without feeling dizzy, I couldn’t breathe, I felt hot & cold at the same time ... I was just absolutely freaking out. I was so desperate I downloaded anxiety games it didn’t work at all... I finally came across Dare & subscribed to it desperate for my attack to go away. Now I can honestly say I will forever keep this subscription, my panic attack was resolved using the many videos they offer. I am now working on the health anxiety section as that is what my anxiety focuses around, & so far that section has been amazing as well.. I would seriously recommend Dare to anyone suffering from anxiety or in a panic attack.

by Hunwarriorprincess

Ok I was very skeptical about Dare and I also hate writing reviews, but I decided to give it a go. I did not think my anxiety can be treated with anything but meds. I was on Zoloft for 5 years. A year ago I decided to ditch the meds and give CBDs a try. The point is , Zoloft and CBDs are just crutches to treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Dare is really drilling into the root cause and teach you how you how to deal with your anxiety by yourself without any crutches. Almost within days I was able to manage my panic attacks and not let it escalate to full blown panic. Dare really teaches you how to deal with those anxious feelings that manifest. Please get Dare if you are struggling, you will not be disappointed.

I can’t thank the creators of Dare enough. The man who does the narration is so comforting. I’m a 25 year old man and have been having panic attacks and terrible anxiety since I was young. Since using Dare and going to therapy regularly, my panic attacks have become infrequent. But there was a time when it felt like I was using Dare every night to help get me through what seemed at the moment to be the end. The “SOS 12 Minute Panic Attack” recording has been an incredible tool. In my experience, using Dare while having a panic attack reduces its severity by 20-90%. I can’t recommend it highly enough. To those out there suffering from anxiety, you aren’t alone. There are solutions to your problems. Dare just may be one of them. It has saved my neck more times than I can count.

I’m still in recovery mode but am seeing significant improvements in my general anxiety and panic attacks. I was having panic attacks in the comfort of my own home due to COVID anxiety. I always had an issue with anxiety and driving in particular but recently got to the point where I couldn’t even drive down the street to my parents house. I was taking several anxiety meds just to feel safe. Then I found the this app book and app. I’ve read the book once, and listened to the audio book 4 times in just a month & just want to continue listening to it over & over until I have it memorized. I had a set back while stuck in traffic, but this time I didn’t dwell on it or get extremely upset over it. I’m able to accept it and keep reminding myself that it’s ok to be uncomfortable. “Get comfortable with being uncomfortable “. This quote from Dare sticks out to me. I love you Barry. Thank you!

I have been an anxiety patient most of my life, but this past month has been such a rough patch for me. I started getting more severe and daily panic attacks because I was showing symptoms of a sinus infection and dizziness which my mind had tricked me into believing i was dying. it sent my health anxiety through a loop. After multiple doctor visits to find out that there isn't anything seriously wrong, and that my anxiety exacerbated those symptoms, I had to take some sort of initiative. Dare has helped me so much in taking back my power and changing the way i view my anxiety. I had really begun to feel hopeless, but now i feel more in-control. this app is helping me along with my weekly therapy to get me to a point where i am able to manage and handle my emotions. Sorry for the rambling, but i am just so excited with where i'm headed on my journey. I recommend this to anyone dealing with severe health anxiety!

I don’t think I’ve ever written a review before but I had to for this this app app. I’ve had bad Health Anxiety for about 8 years now but I’ve been able to manage it on my own.. 4 weeks ago I got covid and it sent my anxiety through the roof, real aggressive panic attacks every other day .. real horrible experiences. About a week and a half ago I downloaded Dare out of desperation to seek any kind of help. In the back of my mind I was skeptical of an App being able to provide any sort of therapeutic or mental / emotional help. Once I felt an attack coming I put in my ear buds and listened and it’s been such a life saver. Within this past week It has saved me from 3 really bad panic attacks and potential trips to the hospital. 3 weeks prior I’ve been to the hospital 4-5 times with no help and even felt embarrassed for going. I truly love Dare and I’m thankful for all the work the this app team has been putting together for people like myself. Thank you this app!

I absolutely love Dare. I have struggled with generalized anxiety disorder with anxiety attacks my entire life. In recent months I found myself in a tough spot with my anxiety. I can’t explain the amount of things I’ve tried, including different medications that unfortunately weren’t able to help or only helped in a tiny way. Dare has done so much good for my anxiety and it has been amazing. I know I can turn to it and it will be of help. I’m so very thankful for Dare and have been telling my friends and family about it. I have only used the free version but I’m hoping to buy the subscription soon because there’s a lot of great tools in Dare that seem worth it! If you’re doubting if Dare is for you, there’s a lot of free audio files in Dare that you can try. It’s always worth a shot. Again, highly recommend Dare to ANYONE. Thank you so much to the creators of Dare. It’s gotten me through a lot and I feel so validated/proud of myself!

I decided to download a bunch of self help anxiety apps when I had my first real panic attack and then another panic attack each day afterwards. After not eating and throwing up and being miserable every night and scared during the day, Dare was the best at helping me with being alone with my thoughts. I’m still working out of this anxious state and Dare has been so helpful at diffusing my anxiety spiral thoughts.

I recommend it to anyone who is looking for an instant help to manage this constant feeling of dread that you might have another panic attack. The SOS feature is so nice but the actual lessons on working to deal with your anxiety is even more helpful (which is why I would recommend buying the addition stuff-it’s only monthly and you cancel at any time which is nice.)I think the reason I had a panic attack was because I was living with my anxiety unchecked for so long! So far it’s been nice working through these lessons and using Dare! Hopefully it works for you the way it’s been a relief for me. ✨

I have suffered from anxiety since I was a small child. At times it has been horrific. I’ve lost jobs, lost my home, and my car because of anxiety literally crippling me! I downloaded Dare yesterday, as well as the audiobook by the same name (completely free with an audible 30 day free trial) and I cannot begin to tell you the impact they have already had on my life. These tools are worth all the wealth in the world, and I’m only using the free version thus far! As soon as I’m able to afford it I will be subscribing. I see a therapist regularly and will continue to do so as should you. As mentioned repeatedly in Dare and book neither of these tools take the place of a therapist.

As I said, I have suffered with anxiety from an early age. The thing that made me get Dare is the fact that I’m 45 years old and having total hip replacement surgery in less than a week and I’m terrified! Dare and book don’t only help with irrational fears but totally REAL ones as well! I highly recommend Dare and book. As a matter of fact I shared it with a friend hours after I discovered it! If you’re reading this and skeptical, use it and see for yourself!

Dare saved me. I was going down a path that was not healthy for me. Something happened at my old job that caused me to see i needed to work on changes in my life and to work on myself and i had panic attacks like everyday i could not concentrate in school, or driving, or other everyday activities. I found Dare and i am still in process with it but i am better off where i was.. i am still achieving progress each day following what is taught. Its such a great tool and I thank these challenges & daily dares to learn so much about myself and give the self love i deserved and needed. If you put it to your everyday life, you will see progress and it will teach you to not get down on yourself & see the little things as progress. I also enjoy the quotes each day that pop as a notification!
Its a good app to do free but also the payment option is really useful too because you can do the challenges which really help your progress along and teaches you more.
My only complaint is the mini bugs that happen where my app will have a period of just not loading.
Its a great app if you struggle with severe anxiety / panic attacks this is Dare that can really
Help you out through this!!!

Dare is helpful for a variety of factors. 1, logging your progress daily can help you look at your issue from a different perspective. If you log triggers, you may be able to focus on those and reinforce avoidance or try and combat the behavior. Psychoanalysis (uncovering the roots of your anxiety) is an amazing tool and although it is just you and Dare , logging your episodes can help you uncover what is making you react in such a way. 2, that breathing technique used is a great relaxation tool. Dare says to breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, and release. There are a variety of other techniques such as the 4-4-4-4, the 4-7-8, 4-2-6, and many more. The point if to help you relax and it definitely did that. I also love that it coaches you when you are having an episode and can help you cool down. Overall I would say this is a great app to help anyone who is struggling with anxiety.

The best part about Dare is the “Daily this app”. It’s a daily message that helps me through the day with dealing with my issues. I listen to it everyday when I wake up or whenever I feel like I’m dying. The only recommendation I would suggest is to have an Apple Watch companion app that would go hand in hand with Dare wherein you can play daily this app, meditations and SOS recording. Furthermore, I would also think that the mood logging can greatly improve wherein you can customize parameters and see graphs of your improvement and not just a calendar. Thank you this app app developers. I truly wish this gets heard as I love your app very much. Thanks!

If you want to build an effective arsenal, as opposed to medicating, or as opposed to managing or avoiding. If you want relief or respite over the persistent dread, every minute, every hour, every day... give Dare a chance. The this app Workbook is another part of that arsenal for me. Imagine that, nothing to be medicated away. Nothing to fear. Barry will help you understand your own power of influence. Barry and his team know what they are doing. These folks will teach you how to self-correct by observing what's actually going on. Breath again, and breath deeply, push the fear out. Make room for the breath. Get familiar with what is actually going on for yourself.

I have used the this app method in the past and it helped me. I stopped using it because my anxiety improved and I felt like I didn’t need it anymore. Well, I am struggling again after being anxiety free for two years. So I downloaded Dare and paid for a year subscription and I am feeling more positive again.

You have to make yourself uncomfortable at times to get through anxiety and this method teaches you how to do that. When your anxiety improves continue to use Dare. That’s what I should have done. There is nothing wrong with using Dare everyday.

I started having panic attacks last Summer after a horrible case of pneumonia a few months earlier. I had never been scared of anything really before. I was pretty carefree and suddenly became a person scared of everything. The this app book helped me a lot but Dare was the piece that really started getting me to recovery. It’s so worth the money, I promise! It’s better than any therapist. I tried one once who terrified me even more. Even though I feel pretty much recovered now, I will probably keep Dare until I feel I don’t need it anymore. Thanks so much for creating Dare.

by Emarie412

I used to get up to 7 full blown panic attacks each day, I was in a crisis, the this app Response book was my last ditch effort before admitting myself. Shortly after finishing the book I also downloaded Dare . The book introduces you to the in-depth concepts, Dare has audios they guide you in applying it in various situations and progressing forward. I haven’t had a panic attack in 4 months, and when I last did I was able to pull myself out. This method has done more for me than any medication. It is really rooted closely to CBT therapy. If you have anxiety, this tool can change your life.

by Blossomme

Dare has been very helpful in my journey getting through Anxiety. I have been doing great for the last few years with minimal Anxiety. Lately my symptoms have been really strong. Getting on Dare has thought me so many great techniques and has educated me so much more on what my body and mind are going through. This in combination of lots of prayer has been so helpful and I’m grateful for Dare. I received a news letter today from Barry Mcdogahg and it hit home and actually made me very emotional because it felt good to know that there are people who completely get you and your not alone! Thank you!!

I have been struggling with anxiety and panic attacks for months. My doctor started me on a low dose medication but medications take time. To wait for the medication to work, it was driving me crazy. My anxiety and panic attacks were worse and more frequent. Then I found Dare. It’s hard enough to explain to anyone what I’ve been going through. Then there’s Dare. It knows exactly what I’m going through. Barry’s voice is calming and reassuring, it helped give me a sigh of relief. This is something I hadn’t been able to do for months. Dare challenges me to fight and become my own warrior. His guided lessons help me through my thoughts. I cannot think Barry and his team enough for this!

by Sunflowers&smiles

I have struggled with a severe anxiety disorder/agoraphobia/panic attacks/hypochondria for 12 years. Barry has helped me tremendously. I use Dare daily. He has the most soothing voice too that really calms me. I love his approach to anxiety and have found much success with the this app program. One of my favorites on Dare is the End Insomnia “deeper sleep” where his soothing voice repeating sleeping affirmations truly helps me to sleep. If you struggle with anxiety then buy this! But remember! You have to actually apply what he says...which is the hard part. To anyone reading this who is struggling: I completely understand and I’m so sorry you have to deal with this...but there is help! And things can get better. Buy Dare and start to make the needed changes in your life. Hang in there!

The key to my recovery! Therapy, meds, yoga, meditation, books, etc. were helping, but if I hadn’t stumbled upon Dare in the middle of the night during a panic attack, I don’t think I would be as far along in my healing journey as I am right now. The tools are so accessible, helpful and practical. Especially when you’re alone and struggling with yet another panic attack. Kept me out of the ER several times. I am so very grateful to Barry and his team, and I continue to recommend Dare/book/Facebook group to everyone I know who is struggling with anxiety.
