“I tried to suck it up. I wanted to be strong — to be able to handle life the way other people did. I didn’t understand why I was so sensitive.”
— Lara McCaffrey
Growing up, Lara McCaffrey loved going outside. But then one day, something happened that left her with a chilling fear of driving out into the countryside. The open spaces she knew so well came to fill her with dread.
Over time, things only got worse.
On this episode, Lara shares her story. It’s a story about a paralyzing anxiety — and about the struggle to lead a “normal” life, when you feel too fragile to function.
