I have been learning to drive since May this year, and I think I probably would have passed by now if it wasn't for my anxiety. I suffer from anxiety, but learning to drive has added extra anxiety on top of it.
Generally, I'm a decent driver. When I'm calm. But whenever I do a mock driving test with my instructor, I go to pieces. I make so many mistakes that it wouldn't be wise to book my test just yet. I just want to do well and be able to book my test and hopefully pass my test. Driving would make my life so much easier.
I just want to do well, and I think that's putting pressure on me which is making my anxiety worse. Does anyone have any advice on how to calm down?
Friends have suggested Rescue Remedy (It doesn't work on me), Kalms (Both the normal and Lavender version), and other herbal remedies (I'm relucant to try another herbal remedy as they don't seem to work on me).
Has anyone else had this problem or is it just me? Any advice would be most welcomed.
