This year I made it a goal to get my drivers license before my birthday.
I am 28 years old and in 4 days I'm going for my drivers test. For such a long time I hated myself and called myself a loser for not having my license. Why didn't I have it? As a kid my mom and I got into a car accident with a drunk driver. That night has stuck with me my entire life, and cars and being on the road scare me and driving is not something I wanted to do. I couldn't trust the people on the road and shit, could I really trust myself controlling a giant metal death machine?
I have finally gotten the courage the start driving and now am taking my drivers test and am I nervous? YES! I already have crippling anxiety, let's add a stranger in a car with me that I've only driven twice, while in the middle of a pandemic. Yea, sure, I won't FREAK OUT (⊙_⊙;)
However, it is a step forward that I am finally taking for myself & I am proud of myself for doing so.
Baby steps, silly girl. Baby steps 🖤
