How do I get over anxiety when driving in busy traffic and especially if someone is driving to close. Last year I had a car accident, I was sitting waiting for the car in front of me to turn when a car who was quite aways from me at the time I stoped just drove into the back of me, totaling both our cars. They think he was on his phone as he sure wasn’t looking at the road. I have had to have physical therapy and neck procedures for my spine which hasn’t been fun, so now I find that when someone is driving on my rear I go into panic and struggle to keep calm and sometimes begin to cry. I try to avoid driving in rush hour if possible but the city I now live in people ride so close and hop lanes constantly as they are very impatient . Everyday I drive past at least a few accounts because people are crazy on the roads. I don’t want to be like this because I know nervous driving can cause accidents too but this anxiety comes over me every time someone is driving so close to me that sometimes I can’t  make my turn for fear they will hit me and I just start crying with fear. It’s not as if I drive slow and I try to be a good driver but people here just love to ride the rear for some reason. What is the best way to get over this anxiety and stay calm? I wasn’t like this before the accident
