I did the drive on the highway (about 15 miles each way) all by myself. I had some anxiety, but not panic. I drove in the right hand lane and didn't speed up if someone came behind me. Instead I slowed down and they always passed me. I am emotionally drained but I feel good about myself for facing the fear. If I can do it anyone can.

That's wonderful, Elaine! Good job facing your fears. Reading your journal today has given me the desire to face mine too.
Love, Debi

That is so very understandable, but I am glad you are driving. I was in an accident about 10 years ago. My car was totaled, but I wasn't hurt, but it took me three months to even be able to get behind the wheel of a car again.
But, before I knew it - I was just fine with driving again.
But good for you! I'm proud of you!!!
Hugs
