I think about that too because I am getting my permit March 13th and will be starting to drive ick.

i dont know whats wrong with me, or if this is the right group to be joined to
please help

Hi, I feel safer in a car than I do walking but yeh I know all about thinking to much

I over think far too much its what every one says who noes me, you think to much, or I'll Analise things to much. I think what if this happens what if that happens and I go through my head what I'd do and whats the best thing to do, yet 9 times out of 10 the things I think are going to happen never do. mad in it???

it seems like you and I have a lot in common... My dizzy spells as i call them always hit me when I am driving if I over think things. I drive for a living doing deliveries in the early AM So I am always alone and thats when it always seems that I feel my worst some days I can work through it and some days I cant......

I have allways been afraid of driving, with my job i have bececome much more comfortable in my familiar are.
I have to drive alot of different places at a momments notice, thankgoodness for mapquest!!.
Its been like exposure therapy for me!

I feel the same way, I am always anxious to go on car trips because I'm scared of getting in an accident. It's hard to be a defensive and safe driver when those thoughts are always in my mind! My husband usually drives but that doesn't really help!

most of my anxiety problems are from driving. I have a really hard time driving even in town. I have been in 2 accidents in the past 2years and I would rather not even drive at all. I go to a therapist, but driving there is a real problem, so its not helping at all. I hope that you find a solution to your problem.

i am learning to do calming breathing so it helps while i am driving it takes my focus off of the things around me that could happen.. i hope you find something to help..**hugs**

Hi this is one of my biggest fears and b/c of that i haven't driven my car in about four years :( I always seem to panic when i am driving. I am so scared im going to lose control on the interstate so when i did drive i just didnt go on the interstate..but not i don`t drive AT ALL ...my goal is to start driving though b/ci have a 1 1/2 year old who will have to go to school one day and play soccer or baseball and he is going to need a mom to drive him around :)
