Driving

Queen

Does anyone here drive?

I've been learning for a while. For quite a while now actually. I drive very well. Studied it so much I know it all of by heart now. Anxiety is my big problem! 

Come the test, every time without fail I get so anxious it leads to panic attacks and meltdowns. This has happened several times and it cost me the test every time.

I saw online you can buy a license online lol and I'm tempted to just do that as because of autism and anxiety I think I'll still be facing this problem in 10 years time... I can drive it's just in test environment I can't cope.

Any of you experience this to?

  • How did it cost you the test? They can’t fail you for being anxious, only if you make mistakes. 
    I do drive, but only when I have to, like to work or to the dr, dentist etc. I rarely go across town, let alone out of it! I drove a bit farther when I was younger. It seems that I now realise I can’t drive S well as listen to instructions, be that a person, or a sat nav. Couple that with my directional problems, and it makes matters quite stressful. I was able to avoid driving altogether whilst I was married. Was forced to start after the split.
