So I have been diagnosed by OCD. I get this intrusive thoughts that I really hate. But the most annoying of them is the fear of driving on high ways. I the wider the road is the more scared I am . I feel scared , scared to the point that I want to open the car door and jump or just stop the car in the middle of the road . I feel like am going to crash and hurt other people.
I have been avoiding driving outside the city.
My doctor told me that I should still drive on highways to get over my fears but I feel like am gonna hurt myself or somebody.
Anybody have tips for me to ease the matter ?
