Car-mares

Posted by Psyche Skinner Thursday, January 7, 2010


One of the weird things about having a driving phobia is my driving nightmares. The exact appearance of the dream varies but I am in a car and driving. Then somehow I either lose the ability to break, or the car starts to accelerate beyond my control. I try desperately to make turns and stay on the road, but inevitably crash, and wake with a start.

Or am I the only one?
