I struggled for years. The pressure and responsibility behind the wheel was so nerve wracking. Finally got my license at 21. I’m 23 now and feel so comfortable driving!

Yep. I’m about to drive 45 min home at 1am after a party, and I’ve already convinced myself that I’m gonna crash and die tonight for no reason. And that happens every time I drive lol but I’ve never been in an accident. Always on the verge of exploding with anxiety

Really slow, I’ve only been on an actual road twice for a brief moment and I’m having a really hard time getting the hang of turns

Honestly idk because I know I wouldn’t be able to afford to live in a place like that unless I could drive to a well paying job

Yeah, affordability’s an issue, particularly these days. I would say hustle try to get a well-paying hobby in the city. Idk if that’s doable for ur career field

Honestly, exposure. I grew up in the country so there were a lot of backroads I could drive on without worrying too much about dealing with other cars, then I got up to driving 3 hours to see my sister, then I moved to Boston where I had to drive through the city every day for school🤣

update: just made it home and did not actually crash and die. This experience will be added to my data set however it will not ease my anxieties
