I know I haven't written on here in a while, but yesterday I was in my first fender bender with my new car. My car just has minor damage to it thank god, and the person who I hit seemed understanding about the whole thing. The damage to the other car was minor as well. I just hope I don't have to pay a ton of money I was in shock when it happened and I tried to go to work that day, but I just couldn't. I told my boss about it and she offered me the option to go home which I took because my anxiety was through the roof. Today I'm feeling better, but I'm scared to get behind the wheel again. Idk maybe it's just my anxiety talking. I hate it...I wish my anxiety would just go away.

Do you have any antianxiety exercise or routines that help calm you? What about meds? My biggest help for me is to talk about it with anyone who'll listen. I don't mention my anxiety about it but just tell the story of the of the incident. Usually by the 3,rd time the story is old to me and I'm not anxious anymore.
The 2nd exercise I use is journaling. It's a cross between counseling and the afore mentioned exercise of talking it out. Breathing exercises. Help during my attacks. When all of those fail, I have a low dose of antianxiety med I can take.
