No Shame On U Podcast 15: Sophie Riegel, author of "Don't Tell Me to Relax!"

For our 15th podcast, we were delighted to talk with Sophie Riegel, author of “Don’t Tell Me to Relax!: One Teen’s Journey to Survive Anxiety (and How You Can Too)”. We discuss what it was like realizing she lived with anxiety, the bullying she faced and how she got it to stop, trying different treatments, overcoming panic attacks at inopportune moments, advice for teens and parents, and much more. Sophie is currently in her first year at Duke University,  

Editor’s Note: Miriam had Sophie’s incredible book on her mind when talking to her, so she inadvertently said “our readers” instead of “our listeners” a few times.
