Riding in Cars

My fear is to drive alone in the car I feel like I will forget where I live or get a panic attack because no one that I know will be there to help me out if I do.

Members,

Do you struggle with anxiety? Today we will be looking at sample exposure plans to help you overcome your fears.

If you fear riding in the car as a passenger…

• Sit in the car, with a safe person & the engine off for 1 hour
• Sit in the car, with a safe person & the engine on for 1 hour
• Ride with a safe person driving on quiet streets at a quiet time of day for a half-hour
• Ride with a safe person driving on quiet streets at a quiet time of day for an hour
• Ride with a safe person driving on a busier street and busier time of day for ½ hour
• Ride with a safe person driving on a busier street and busier time of day for 1 hour
• Ride with a safe person on the freeway at a quiet time of day for 1 hour
• Ride with a safe person driving at a quiet time of the day to a specific place you want to go
• Repeat the previous step but during a busier time of day

Is riding in a car as a passenger a fear of yours?
