Learning to Drive

Pandoren

I'm learning to drive at the moment because it's something I need to do, especially to work (I live in the country) but I am absolutely hating it... I get such bad anxiety about starting the lesson, hours or even the day before it's due... makes me want to go and hide instead of doing it (and fyi, things like "you'll have so much freedom once it is done!" have been said ad nauseam). I've just booked my theory test as well...

:(

  • Thanks both.

    The problem with the rewards thing is that there is nothing I really enjoy that I could use as a reward.

    At the moment I would like a green and white classic mini... although I know I can't afford a car! (I am entertaining the idea of naming it *** Turpin... lol)

    We've had a talk... I wasted half an hour of my lesson a couple of weeks ago wanting to leg it and cry so we talked... I hadn't told him I had Asperger's so it was a surprise when he said he'd already realised. As for another instructor, I feel that the odds are I will not get on with another person either so it'll probably be a waste of time changing and also especially since I've now done 18 hours it might push back my progress to start again with someone else.
