I used to have trouble when driving. My therapist and I worked out several solutions to the problem, and I do much better now! I have a teenager (17) who does most of the driving. She is very responsibile, and does a good job. I use post-it notes on my dashboard to remind her where we are going, and I have a GPS to help her out when she needs it. I am mostly co-consious with her but not always, so I end up getting from point A to point B without remembering it sometimes. Also, sometimes I get lost b/c I dissociate and think I'm in another city. I'm trying to find familiar landmarks, and they're not there! When this happens, I know someone else is driving, and I pull over to get grounded. Yep, never a dull moment!
