Hi Al. Driving anxiety is very common, I have it myself. Sometimes I am fine for 10 mins then I start to feel like theres a weight on my chest. Then the fear is of not being able to breathe. It gets worse if I avoid driving so dont do that. It helps me to remind myself I have never been in an accident and only had one speeding ticket. I tell myself I am a good driver and so am in no danger. It might help you to distract yourself with music too. best of luck!
