Here to Stomp the Stigma today is first responder Darien D’Orsay!  He is a firefighter, a member of the Alberta Sheriff department, Canadian ski patrol, military, AND search & rescue.  In this week’s episode I got to hear all about a crippling phobia and anxiety that controlled Darien’s life for many years.  Hear how he managed to work through it, and now faces his phobia head on every week in his line of work.  We also got into a little bit of the stigmas surrounding first responders and mental health.
