The other day a couple of my friends and I needed to take a trip about 30 minutes away. One said, "I'll drive." He had the best car so why not. I had to leave the room, actually go outside, in order to have a panic attack at just the thought. Several years ago, 10 or 12 now, I was in a car accident and right after wasn't even able to get in a car period. Now I feel ok as long as I'm driving but still when I'm passing a car or coming to an intersection my anxiety level gets so high. To the point where I've had to just turn into the closest driveway or road just to avoid it. I'm tired of this!! I can't go anywhere unless I drive and gas is not cheap these days. It's affecting me emotionally and now financially. HELP!
