Were you in a car wreck? Is that why your affraid of driving.


Well, it was a bunch of little things that added up to a big thing. For starters, my Driver's Ed instructor when I was 16 was an a**. He basically verbally sexually harassed me when we were alone in the car. Add that to the fact that I was very unsure of myself at that age, and wasn't a very good driver to begin with, and the whole experience was pretty horrible. Then about a year later, my father bought me this huge boat of a car with power nothing and the first time I drove it, I stalled in the middle of an intersection. And about two days later I rear ended a pickup truck. I haven't driven since. xp

But I want to work on it, because I'm 30 years old and I'm tired of depending on other people to meet my basic need for transportaion. Hence, the book.

I think when you have no choice but to drive you have to force yourself to do it. It did take me along time to not freak out while I was driving though.

Yeah. If I had made myself get back in the car and drive after my accident, I would have been fine, but, like I said, I was very unsure of myself at that age. So I let the fear get the best of me, and over the last 13 years, what should have been a minor setback has become this huge....thing in my head. I literally can't even think about driving without getting sick. I tried to read my husband's driver's ed book from a defensive driving class he had to take. I had to put it down after reading two pages, cause it almost gave me a panic attack.
