This is very interesting to me Karen, because the same thing happened to my mom after her car wreck. She was terrified to get into a car and honestly, I don’t know what else because she was afraid to share it with me - probably thought I would think she was over-reacting. She’s better now, back to driving, etc. But I shudder to think of what she went through...alone. ❤️
This is exactly why we need to talk about it--to remove the stigma and help people understand it is how our brains were designed to respond to trauma. I’m so glad your mom is doing better!
Thank you! I needed this :)
