I suffered from panic back home in the UK. I have not been able to drive on a moterway for 3 years now.
It just came on me one morning, I started to go dizzy and felt the world was closing in on me and like I was going to crash my car. My heart would race very fast and my hands would shake and sweat. Just the thought of going on a moterway would have the same effect!
I went to see a Hypnotist (forgive if spelt wrong) just before I came here in June to see if it would help. It didn't and I was petrified at the thought of driving here.
It took me around 2 months to drive and I took it really slowly. I think it was a bit better here cos there is plenty of places to pull up and catch my breath if I started to feel like the panic attack was going to come on again.
