I'm willing to learn how to drive and really tackle this issue because we really do like each other and I want to give this a shot, as does she. If facing my fears of driving is going to help, then I will definitely do that. But I had two problems. First is obviously my extreme fear of driving. It absolutely terrifies me and I don't know how to get over that.

Second, as I have no one to teach me how to drive, I looked into driving schools. They are super expensive and definitely not something that I can afford. So I'm conflicted on what to do. I really want us to work out and I don't want the fact that I don't drive to stand in the way of that.

But I'm also stumped as to how to learn how to drive when I have no one to teach me and I cannot afford driving lessons at any of the schools near me. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Yeah, no mention of where. I will say, though, you do need to typically go through a driver's education course and have a couple behind-the-wheel lessons before you can get your permit.

Yeah, but I do think that's an idea to consider is you might have to, you know, I don't know, do what you're going to do. I'm not going to tell you to do something one way or another. But it might be good to just like sit in the front seat of the car in an empty parking lot and get comfortable and maybe, you know, drive around in the parking lot or dirt road.

Yeah, but it is scary. There are a lot of options out there. And I get the driving schools might be expensive. But something I would consider is there's a lot of driving, like specializing therapists that will go into the car with you and kind of work through some of your fears. There's fear of driving and anxiety treatment programs. So this might be something to do first.

Your insurance could even cover it because it is so expensive. negatively impacting your life. And you have to figure out the language you can use to justify it to a doctor. But it's preventing me from going to medical appointments. It's preventing me from living my daily occupations. It's impacting me negatively for my job and relationships and blah, blah, blah, blah.
