How do I stop hating driving?
I have really bad driving anxiety and every time I get into the car I can feel my stomach drop. How can I learn to like driving to make the experience better for myself?

We’re sorry to hear that you’re struggling with driving anxiety! Some things you can do to try to stop hating driving so much include:
- Turn on some music that makes you feel calm and focused.
- Download theJerryapp and check out the roadside assistance program, which gives you access to industry-leading roadside assistance for as little as $4.16 a month. This can be really helpful if you’re stranded and need help!
- If you feel yourself getting nervous, do some deep breathing exercises to help yourself calm down.
- Keep practicing, even when it’s scary. The better you get at driving, the more confident you’ll feel behind the wheel.
- If nothing seems to make you feel better, it might be a good idea to go to therapy for your driving anxiety. A trained professional can help you better understand and cope with your fear to make it more manageable for you.
Having a good car insurance policy can also help ease some of your driving anxiety. The
