It's been one year since I crashed my car

On Feb. 12, 2020, I totaled my car. That was exactly 2 weeks (14 days) after I got my driver’s license. It is one of the most traumatic experiences of my life so far.

On Feb. 12, 2021, I took a trip to Chick-fil-A, by myself, in the same town where I crashed, during rush hour, around the same time I crashed. I’m only mildly disappointed that I didn’t make it to the exact intersection, because it was getting dark, traffic was pretty heavy, and I was getting too stressed out.

But I made it this time.

And man, is Chick-fil-A with a side of catharsis worth it!

Hey there,

That took a huge amount of courage to take that drive by yourself in the same area such a traumatic accident happened to you! Congratulations on making it to the point you did!! That is HUGE!! Plus some Chick-fil-A is definitely an added bonus! Way to go!!

Hi @TheWreckage!

Very well done facing your fears, textbook CBT! You should feel very proud of yourself, we are!
Keep it up and one day soon enough you’ll conquer that last bit of road and intersection. :slight_smile:
