Read what our users say: “Took a chance with this app, and I’m so glad I did! It’s honestly amazing and the best anxiety app I’ve tried. The ‘Evening Wind Down’ is the absolute best, and I love how the app has so many different tools and meditations! Highly recommend DARE!” - StacyS

“This is one of the only apps I’ve continued to pay premium for. It’s truly helped me come off that ledge of anxiety and learn new coping mechanisms that therapy hadn’t even taught me. I love this app, and I love the people that run it. Thank you for what you do.” - Aschom

“20 years of fighting anxiety on my own, not knowing what’s going on with me… until I got this app. It’s changed the way I fight this THING forever. Thank you for all the work you do.” - Glitchb1

“DARE is a lifesaver. I recently started using it, but it’s already helped me more than my therapist. The advice and the DARE response are great, but for me, the best are the deep relief and insomnia recordings—they help me go to sleep.” - MartinB

“I was sceptical of the claim that within 3 days you’d see improvements, but I have an incredible set of tools. I can’t imagine not having this app now.” - RebeccaM

Actually really helps! I've been struggling with panic disorder on and off since I was in middle school. Using this app is finally helping me work through these feelings, not by pushing them away, but by running towards and accepting them. I haven't read the book, but I want to. The combo of emergency sessions that I've used when dealing with flying or panic attacks with daily lessons is perfect. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to finally move past fear and embrace life fully

Life changing. After suffering a panic attack I didn't know where to turn. Reading a few self books helped, but DARE was th easiest to implement. I practiced it for a while for OCD and anxiety with some relief. The app has made a big difference however. I use it to calm myself in times of uncertainty and listen to the daily DARE every morning. I would have a hard time getting by without it right now.

I actually love Dare. Over the course of my life, I've deleted and reinstalled Dare in moments of anxious panic, it's helped me resolve matters in a more "head on" calming way. Im able to live amidst the anxious moments and coexist with them without thinking my world is ending. Even without the "full" experience of the subscription, Dare gives a perfect amount of buffers to help you overcome your anxiety.
