I HATE driving far by myself! My husband always makes fun of me for that! I had to drive 3 hours to Chicago last week to go to a doc's appointment, and I was SOOO nervous. I couldn't sleep, worried about everything, mainly getting lost, but I don't know why I do that! I grew up in Chicago! I just hate to drive on interstates by myself. You're definately not alone with that fear.
I am definately going to stick with the therapy, but I just don't know how he's going to help me My biggest problem is sleeping. That's the only time I get complete anxiety attacks. I won't take any meds because we're trying to get pregnant, and I don't want to get hooked on anything. I was on Xanax for about a month when these started happening, and it was addictive. I only get these attacks when I'm sleeping away from home - in hotels or other people's houses. Or if I have something really important to do the next day. The attacks are just AWFUL, oh I don't even like thinking about them. Just awful. I really hope my therapist can help me. I'm also doing the hypno tapes.
Do you remember what your therapist did/said in particular that really helped you? I mean, mine is basically trying to change the way I think about things, and it's going to take a LONG time to change those bad habits. I'm just wondering if there was anything he did in particular that you remember?
Anyways, on a different note, we are SO excited to move and get our keys next Friday. I cannot wait! The next few weeks will be stressful, but hopefully really fun
Thanks for your reply I love being able to talk to people on here who know what you're going through.
