I had my sixth driving lesson today, and it didn't go very well. I kept changing into fourth gear instead of second, which meant I stalled quite a few times coming out of roundabouts. I guess that might have been upsetting for a lot of people, but when I got back home I ended up crying in my room for over half an hour about it - I managed to convince myself that I was a terrible driver, and my instructor and a lot of other drivers must be really annoyed at me. My parents kept telling me that it was no big deal and they were sure sure people didn't mind - they were all learners once, too - but I wouldn't believe them. Is this normal? How did I manage to go from "that lesson didn't go too well" to "I'm a terrible driver" so quickly?

I got diagnosed with social anxiety recently, and the fact that I was worried so much about what other drivers must be thinking of me makes me wonder if that was part of it.
