What can i do about my anxiety attacks when it comes down to driving i get so af!
Question:
What can i do about my anxiety attacks when it comes down to driving i get so afraid?
they started shortly after my sister died. we spent countless of hours driving around town and going places, of course i did 95% of the driving. one day i was taking my parents to work and bam it hit from out of nowhere i felt the sudden need to slam on the brakes because i was going through an insection. i think that i came from the stress of moving, her death, and taking my parents to work everyday risking my job because i cant be late. now a days my b/f is acting like a prick because he says that he is tired of doing all of the driving but actually he doesnt because im fine (sometimes)except for when i have to take someone some place thats when it hits. im so afraid to drive when someone else is in the car because having a panic attack is embarrassing.i told my b/f about the situation but he is being mean to me and with out me he couldnt get up the road because he doesnt have a car. i feel like crap because i have a new car and gets chauffered i need help i dont know what to do
Answers:
try cognitive behaviour therapy....
dont give up...in time the anxiety will get much better.
dont give up now....this is the best time to work on it. try not to quit driving. most people dont manage to restart once they do
