My reason for this is probably a lot more tamer than some people who have gone through tragic experiences. I’m scared because my dad and my instructors have yelled at me, or I just panic behind the wheel. I want to get it over with. I want to overcome that fear. I want to easily say to my dad, “Let’s go driving” just so I can gain experience but inside my body I am scared out of my mind.
I renewed my permit today, and it’s the first time. I am 19 years old and I haven’t driven in 2 years. I feel that I’ve lost all that I know. I’m scared of making mistakes and I know they’re totally normal and everyone’s human but I want to get my license badly, too. I want that freedom to be happy and to go off on my own without having a fear of my past.
I can’t believe I’m scared of something that I will like. I imagine myself in the car all the time and driving to places I want to go, but it’s hard to believe I could ever have that.
