So how can we get rid of it?



Most victims of anxiety would describe their feelings as almost being out of control and describe their physical symptoms as rushing into them.

Some of these symptoms could be:

heart palpitations, dizziness or unsteadyness, choking and/or feeling sick, trembling or shaking, feeling of detachment, shortness of breath, hot flushes or chills

When a specific situation makes you feel anxious, it is known as situational anxiety. What is referred to as situational anxiety basically comes from a fear that is really out of proportion, which makes it unlike normal fear. Any kind of fear related to performing the driving exam might just be a form of situational anxiety.

The mere thought of taking a driving test can bring on anxiety. Anticipatory anxiety is the term for situations when you're worried about potential future events, such as getting behind to wheel to take a driving test. Sometimes this anxiety becomes intense enough to be called panic.

Driving test nerves is not something that happens to you alone, there are millions who experience it.

So, what is it that you are capable of? Are you panicking even though your driving coach has complimented your ability and do you worry even though you're confident you can pass?

You will want to feel self-assured, calm and attentive during your driving test, so you need to keep those feelings at bay.

You may achieve this by undergoing hypnotherapy, since it facilitates mental readiness, concentration, and the ability to relax prior to taking the driving exam and as you are taking it.

In hypnotherapy we use breathing techniques to calm you down, relaxation exercises, visualization techniques using your imagination to practice the driving test in your mind, seeing yourself driving calmly and in control and passing with confidence.
