Thought records are a great tool I used to deal with an obstacle. It's not the neighbours who are the obstacle, but the thoughts. As for the driving, it might take a professional to break the task of driving into manageable pieces, since this is a skill which you'll apply in the future, namely - taking a task and making it easier by separating it into comfortable parts.
I just can't seem to start my driving exposure. I can drive around my neighood with my husband in the car but can't bring myself to drive on the main road with him. I also can't get mymyself to drive by myself even to the end of my road. My biggest issue is I'd like to pick a spot to drive to then turn around and then go farther the next time, but I feel so embarassed by my neighbors seeing me do this. How do I get over it and just do it?
