Dare To Drive

Have you ever been behind the wheel in anxiety?
You want to get anywhere by car,
get your freedom back?

Ever sat in your car with your palms damp and your heart pounding in your throat? Are you nervous about driving but want your freedom back? 

 

  • You don't even start because you're afraid you'll have to park it somehow? 
  • Does it make you nervous just thinking about driving the next day?
  • Have you ever cancelled a programme because you didn't dare get in the car and drive off? 
  •  Have you ever paid for a taxi when you own your own car and you haven't drunk alcohol?
  • Have you ever felt like you'd rather just leave the whole driving thing behind? 
  • Have your insecurities ever led you into ambiguous situations on the roads?
  • Have you caused or been involved in a car accident?
  • Don't you dare to drive alone unless you have someone sitting next to you?
  • Your hands shake behind the wheel, your palms sweat and you're constantly worried you'll mess something up?
  • You don't drive on the motorway, you don't drive on unfamiliar roads, or you refuse to drive in the dark, in the rain, or drive into a car park? 
  • Are you paralysed on the roads because of stress?
  • Does it bother you too much if you get pulled over, parked in your s@gged, and you'd rather make a big circle just to make sure no one is waiting behind you while you park? 
  • You've got a baby on the way or a family with dogs, you're moving to the countryside, you're on your own and now you really need to drive, can't put it off any longer?
  • It just annoys me that your idiot friend can do it, but how come you can't?  
 
 

As a psychologist with six degrees, an accident survivor and a lover of an old Volvo, I'm here to help you not only dare to drive, but to do it with joy and freedom, whether you're a novice or returning to the track and behind the wheel after an accident. If for whatever reason you have anxiety about driving and are interested in learning about the psychology of driving with confidence and joy, this is the place for you!

Personal motivations to overcome the fear of driving

Driving a car is not just an everyday activity, for many people it is a very important skill and a source of personal freedom. People who are anxious about driving often report feeling that they have lost their freedom and feel almost imprisoned. However, in many cases, returning to driving is not easy, for example in a

Drive a car in your head - the "as if" method of driving

Many people use mental training instinctively, without realising that they are actually doing it. The term 'mental training' was coined by Swedish psychologist Unestahl in the 1970s and has since become commonplace around the world. In this article, I talk about how my experiences as a competitive athlete have seeped into my psychological practice.

What should you do in the event of a car accident?

I would make it a basic condition for getting a driving licence that people also learn what to do in the event of a car accident. Of course, this is a critical situation for which it is difficult to prepare in advance, and we cannot know in advance how we will behave in a crisis situation. But if we have a basic knowledge ingrained in us, it can often be recalled without thinking,
