Car anxiety?!
Question: Car anxiety!?
I'll be turning 16 soon, that means I'll be driving (hopefully)!. Whenever I'm in the passenger seat with someone I always get a sinking feeling in my chest whenever a big truck merges onto the road next to us, or whenever a car pulls out of a driveway and goes into the lane right next to us!. I don't think it's a terrible problem but I don't want to be distracted when I'm driving because I get a sinking, and fast heartbeat whenever I see these things!. Is there anything I can do without getting pills!? (I don't think it's that bad to be prescribed pills)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had a problem with going over a bridge!. I would be in tears from fear that an earth quake would hit and we'd go falling down into the river!. When I learned to drive and had to drive over the bridge and I, not someone else was in control of the car!.!.!.the phobia went away!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
