I get anxious when being as passenger in a car plus while riding a motorbike. Does anyone else has this same problem ?

I know I struggle with things where I'm not in control especially if someone else is driving I cant do rides or anything like that because I'm not in control

So how do you handle it or how do you stay calm and what is the cure ?

I don’t handle it I hate not being in control I went on a Ferris wheel and freaked out my body hated it. If I’m in a car with someone else driving I try and distract myself.

Hi,

I’m not great at being a passenger. Especially on a motorbike as I convince myself that I’m going to die!

I think it’s a control thing – I’m fine if I’m driving/riding.

Yeah Boss! I get extremely anxious while being a passager in a car but it's for good reason while driving with a 92 yr old man whose vision ain't so great as well.

That would do it alright!

Having anxiety symptoms is dangerous to ride a bike. Please don’t.

Very wise Agora1. 😊xx Even the sound of a bike scares me but that’s my own anxiety.
