    If you truly suffer from anxiety attacks you need to try to get some medication that will help with that. It is not uncommon and you should not suffer needlessly....do not be ashamed to ask for help. Once you do you will feel so much better. Now...transportation can be arranged in many ways...taxi - bus - horse and carriage. Simple dates to build a relationship at mutual places at first to develop a friendship first. Then you will be more at ease and possible will not have the anxiety but will have the girl. Do not give up...youhave won half the battle by identifying your problem...now work on fixing it. Good luck...

    well find a nice and understanding girl who would accept the fact that you cant travel as much as she would like u to. also come up with a plan such maybe take the bus or taxi when u have your anxiety attacks or a good trusty friend who could take you to see whom ever your want to see. also girls have hands and feet so im sure they can come see you time to time and maybe drive you once a while....if they dont like those plans or understand that then u dont need to keep those girls around if they cant even understand or consider your attacks may delay you from seeing them or tarveling with them its not your fault rite its their fault for not understanding and for not keeping you..so u be better off looking further for any more girls that would understand cuz thats the kinda of girl any guy would want and would help especially in your situation....Good luck! =)

    I have to say what is on my mind, i know you can control these attacks if you really want to with out medince, but only you can do this bye making up your mind and not settling for less than what you set your mind too. Dont give in to fears and anxiety, or it will rule you. YOu have a real choice here either take charge of your life or let it take charge of you

    Just be up front with her about it. Tell her exactly what the problem is pretty soon in the relationship. If you're truly a great guy, which just by asking this question, it seems you are. She'll be there for you, and not care if you can't drive over to come and see her.

    The best thing to do about any relationship issue is to talk about it. It may seem cliche, but it really does work.

  • ..hum. sure, most girls wanna travel..but that doest necessarily mean u "have" to drive.. u can take a cab..trolley or even a bus to go some girl. (that's if she's worth it..cuz u don't wanna go all that far for a girl who isn't worth it ya know). um..what else.. oOoh she can drive. she can drive 2 u sometimes too. and if she doesn't feel like driving maybe u guys can get away 4 the day and take a coaster or amtrack (yes..more public transportation) somewhere a little further..which gives u more alone time with her and gives u another chance to know her better and spend time with her. well...yup. that's all i got. =) hope everything works out and i hope u liked my suggestions

    have you seen anyone regarding your anxiety? i would be seeking help with that first and foremost. you can't let anxiety control your life. you control the anxiety. it's all in your head. you must have been told that plenty but i find this to be true. work on dealing with it and don't let it interfere in your life plans. by allowing anxiety to control your life you are giving it power and adding fuel to the fire to perpetuate future anxiety attacks. realize this within yourself. YOU are the originator of your anxiety. only YOU have control over it. medications are a short-term fix and there is risk of dependency on them. i would recommend that you see a psychologist...not a psychiatrist who will only prescribe the above medications...but a psychologist who will find out the sources of your anxiety and show you why this is arising within your mind and show you ways to deal with it. YOU are in control.

    go and see a doctor about getting on some type of medication to reduce the number and severity of your anxiety attacks

    Just be sweet and be yourself believe it or not, while some girls would rather have that as a large part of their relationship, you will find that alot of girls will not only "settle" for this situation but love you and would help you

    Tell her about it.

    I used to have anxiety attacks and the person who helped me and healed me of them was Jesus. Whenever I get anxious now, I pray, and He is my comfort and strength. Try Him, you just might like Him! It can't hurt any.

    Explain all of this from the beginning you shouldn't have nothing to worry about if she knows your fear of driving due to anxiety. If she does then she isn't the one for you.
