Donna Kshir Opens Up About Anxiety: Breaking Barriers on Real Talk

I want people to know that I too have different problems, that I, you know, I don't want to say suffer with, but that I have going on in my life and I want to make a difference.
Ever wondered how anxiety can impact even the strongest advocates? In this episode of 'Real Talk' on AU4H Radio, Donna M. Kshir gets candid about her personal battle with anxiety. Despite her fierce advocacy for Connor's Law and child protection, Donna reveals that she often hesitated to share her mental health struggles due to fear of judgment. However, she realized that speaking out could help others facing similar challenges.
Donna discusses how anxiety sometimes leaves her grappling with brain fog or forgetting her points during crucial moments. Yet, she emphasizes that it's okay to not be okay and stresses the importance of breaking the stigma surrounding mental health. Together with co-host Lee 'Cougardawn' Roberts, they dive into various social issues such as women's health, invisible disabilities, addiction recovery, and child abuse.
Donna passionately advocates for a central registry to identify abusers and protect children, highlighting the necessity of speaking up despite the difficulties. This episode is a powerful reminder that sharing our struggles can make a difference, breaking the silence around mental health and advocating for those in need.
