chickencam Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 This thread is fantastic. I have been wondering how to raise this subject on here without embarrassing my daughter. There is so much good advise and life experience on here. I suffered in this way for most of my childhood, but especially in my teens the last major incident when I took my driving test, when I got in the car I had an almost overwhelming desire to run away and felt so ill. I did not run I stayed and passed my test in a busy rush hour I was so proud of myself that I think that acted as a great confidence boost and I have been much better ever since. I still get anxious in new situations especially social ones but I can now deal with it and it does not rule my life. Who'd be a teenager again - not me!
