One of my biggest anxiety/phobia things are car rides. If I'm driving by myself it is at least bearable but I struggle on and off to be with other people in a car. I get so anxious I start gagging... Which is another of my phobias so that makes me wanna go places and be in cars even less. And I can't handle being in the back seats anymore, I have to sit at least passengers or I'm too claustrophobic. But even then I have an extremely hard time and usually can't do it. It's so hard and even my medication doesn't really help. I flat out refuse to go anywhere with anyone and let people down :(

Yes! I usually just have trouble when I’m really close to people, but I have had many panic attacks in cars and planes. It’s awful! And sorry to vent for a minute, but when it’s my Mom next to me she always acts like I’m trying to get away from her, but I just need SPACE! Thanks for your post, it’s nice to read that other people experience similar things to me!
