I had decided to go to my brothers for dinner, and I knew it was going to mean panicking the whole time on the highway.  The day of the dinner, I woke up feeling spaced out and really anxious.  I thought the day was a scrub, but I decided to tough it out and try.  After almost getting off the highway from intense panic, my girlfriend talked me onward and I was able to continue.  I made it there and home.  Sure, I had alot of anxious moments;  But I went through them and past them.   Hope that might inspire someone.  You CAN do it.  It's not always comfortable, but you can. *s* Posted By Discussion Topic: I Made It Through A Rough Drive
