Growly - change your driving instructor, you are paying him. Getting mad at you for crying is not going to help you build your confidence. If you don't already drive, the idea can be shitscary... I can empathise.

I think having episodes of self doubt is normal isn't it? Otherwise we'd all be psychopaths. Mine doesn't seem to get irritated by self doubt but advised me once (for an interview) not to apologise for myself... which leads me to suspect that I have done that a lot in therapy and it irritates him.

Better to irritate than bore though, no?!
