Overcoming Driving Anxiety: My Journey Behind the Wheel

I’ve had my learner’s permit for almost two years, but I’ve only managed to drive more than five feet once. Every time I sit in the driver’s seat, I’m gripped by fear—worried I’ll hit something or someone, even in an empty parking lot. My parents hope I’ll get my license by August, but it feels impossible right now. What’s helped me is taking small steps: practicing in quiet areas, breathing deeply, and reminding myself that it’s okay to be scared. If you’ve felt this way, how did you overcome it?
