How do you get back to driving a car after an accident? I had an accident a month ago and i cant get driving anymore, like i get a panic attack once im in the drivers seat or imagine driving. Ive been getting by walking, bicycle and scabbing rides of others but i need to start driving again
Pic related is my car, i know its a shitbox but i got it for free
Stop being a puss
I've been a really reckless driver, escaping death by a hairs width many times, but once I did have an accident (rear ended by some guy in Audi), I was deathly afraid of getting into a car. More so even at revving of engine. Don't worry you just understood the implications of the forces that it brings because they actually are scary and we are ignorant.
It took me 3 months to step into a car and drive like a pussy, 6 to get fully accustomed to it and a year to go hooning like a madman again. Just give it time, its a psychological wound that heals like any other. Slowly, and with time.
Pussies. I was nearly killed by an old man who drove into oncoming traffic and I got to reenact a "small frontal offset" test in my corolla. I was driving the next day in my brothers car browsing car gurus for a manual Golf
