It is normal to be scared to climb back into a car after an accident. People develop phobias\u00a0<\/span>after something frightening happens to them. The trick to overcoming your fear is to face it\u00a0<\/span>slowly and rationally in controlled circumstances.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Being able to climb into a car and travel is important because it enables you to carry on your\u00a0<\/span>life. Don’t start by getting behind the wheel on a highway. Instead, take a deep breath, turn\u00a0<\/span>the key and follow these steps to overcome your fear:<\/span><\/p>\n 1. Sit in your car without turning it on. Let yourself remember the feel of the seat, the\u00a0<\/span>bend of your ankle on the accelerator, the feel of your hands on the wheel. Become\u00a0<\/span>accustomed to the car again. If it’s been some time since you were in the driver’s\u00a0<\/span>seat, it will feel alien. Take the time to let it feel normal<\/span><\/p>\n
