After 7 years of chronic driving anxiety, tomorrow I’m finally going to drive alone for the first time. Wish me luck 😅😅😅😅

you’ve got this!! remember that you DO KNOW how to drive; if your anxiety tells you that you don’t, identify it and do your best to acknowledge that it is there and push past it take it slow, and be confident - you’ve got it

trust it’s not as bad as you think from someone w adhd and who’s hands used to sweat at the thought of being behind the wheel , just take your time the other people on the road will adjust to avoid crashes . you control everything that goes on with the car just be patient i’m sure you’ll be fine

uh i would NOT count on other people to be paying enough attention to adjust though, that’s kinda a dangerous mindset

that’s that anxiety i’m hearing . and i don’t COUNT on other ppls driving literally saw someone road raging at 90+ because someone wanted to pass them . You control your fate looking in your mirrors driving how you can control your car trust like i never thought id be driving but look at me now going out of state w 0 anxiety

you said “other people on the road will adjust to avoid crashes” this is a very scary thing to tell a new driver because that is not always the case. and i’m actually not an anxious driver at all so don’t tell me you’re hearing anxiety. you can be an incredible driver and have someone else be the idiot that runs into you - never assume other people will adjust. driving isn’t scary - but you do have to trust yourself and only yourself
