I wrecked a car couple of years ago and now I have a job and they've given me a car and I'm petrified of driving. I still drive, but I'm always scared - avoiding highways, not going out of the house unless i absolutely have to.

I always feel like people are staring at me when I drive and that I'm always doing something wrong. This makes me even more nervous and as you can see it's a really stressful situation. How do I get over this?

Try to drive around at night/in deserted areas to get back confidence in the driving abilities. Tell yourself before you drive that it'll be fine, you know how to do this, last time was a freak occurrence, etc etc
