How Driving Anxiety Took Over My Career Hopes

My driving anxiety has gotten so intense that it's now a full-blown phobia. I used to be confident behind the wheel, even delivering for apps like Postmates. But after a couple of accidents, I avoid highways at all costs. Recently, I had to quit another job because the commute was just too much for me. Yesterday, I tried to make it to an orientation for a job I really wanted, but the stress of merging on the highway and getting lost left me shaking and defeated. I ended up calling HR to say I couldn't do it. Looking back, I wish I had considered public transit before giving up. If you struggle with driving anxiety, know you’re not alone. What helps you cope?
