Immersion therapy was my therapist's main solution, but I feel like it was hard to completely get used to the roads. It did have me more comfortable riding on the main roads I had a tail spin going on, and do credit it for the fact that I'm much better driving now than I was in 2014-2015 when almost every road made my head spin. It is something I need to keep in mind though and push myself into doing more as I get comfortable riding on different streets I'm not used to.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but figured I'd get more feedback from here. Only recently have I been so comfortable to open up around folks from here, but I need some more input than what I'm getting now. Around 2014, I developed severe driving anxiety. Panic attacks, being afraid of driving and of being a passenger inside of a car. I haven't been able to drive on highways since then. I also develop irrational fears for parts of the road like a curb that goes on for too long, the left lane/left turns, overpasses, hills, large roads that are too empty, and such. It's gotten better over the years, but I just got accepted for a lucrative full time job; the only catch is that it's an hour commute with roads I'm not comfortable driving on. I should be happy, but I'm terrified, horrified, stressed, and feel like the people I'm opening up to are fed up with me being pessimistic and scared all the time about driving. I was actually doing better last year when I stopped worrying about seeing a therapist a year ago, but now I'm thinking I might have to go back because of my driving anxiety and possibly seek out medication. Anyone know someone who's gone through this? Is there a cure or coping mechanism I'm missing? I hate the feeling that this wouldn't have been a problem if I wasn't so fucked in the head. It wasn't always like this. I was driving normally on highways to and from everywhere at ease for 4 years before everything scared me. It kills me to my core that my gut reaction to getting a wonderful job is looking like I saw a ghost over the distance I have to drive until I move out. Is there even a healthy way to seek treatment for anxiety that involves being in a car?

The drive there is rough, but there's things about Savannah I remember fondly, like this one coffee shop by the farmers market and some nice restaurants

I remember Suga Mama getting pumped up about Solange and Destiny's Child doing the OP. It was way better than the Macy Gray song in As Told by Ginger

STAHP, 2018! You're getting too freaking WEIRD!
Chapinator_X replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Anime & Manga
Knowing Hollywood productions of anime films, they probably won't take Oda's character race chart into account even though Oda outlined them. The casting will be based on test studies like GitS or Death Note. Instead, Luffy will be played by a young white actor who will be sacrificed at the alter along with the others. -

This looks like Photoshop. It doesn’t help that fake casts often have A-listers headlining the film. It’s not very conspicuous when most anime films only have one or two high profile actors (Ex: Williem Dafoe and Lakeith Stanfield in Death Note, ScarJo In GitS, Samuel Jackson in Kite, and Chow Yun Fat in DB Evolution) while the rest of the cast is rounded up by low key TV stars who are cheap enough to star in an anime movie. A realistic Hollywood OP movie would have only Chris Evans and/or Eminem being side characters alongside the cast of The 100, The Flash, and The Maze Runner movies -

As far as TV Compilation albums go, this one always had the funniest name. She knows what’s going down with him and the boys.

The Oscars usually snubs superhero movies. The only exceptions for giving popcorn movies awards are animated movies and Fury Road, and they had to make the latter artsy to get there.

I missed the chance to try the beta when it came out around the same time as the DBFZ and Dissida ones. I don’t have much experience with the MH series too, so I don’t think I’d pick it up any time soon.

It's only proper if you're drooling into eachother's mouths. Otherwise, no one learns anything from it.
