Discussion suicidal ideation & driving

[savethesememories]

does anyone else experience terror at the idea of driving? i personally view cars and vehicles as thousand pound screaming metal death traps. yet i can go on planes just fine, i think it's the fact that you control it. i'm an adult in america still without my license, because whenever i try again i get awful nightmares of losing control of the vehicle and dying painfully. when i go, i want it to be peaceful and not adrenaline-pumped fear. maybe it's just me, though. i'd love to hear other perspectives, especially from folks out of their teens and twenties

It's a healthy fear. Reckless, tiny-dick, Fast & Furious poser dipshits with loud exhausts are everywhere now. Killing innocent people all over the place these days.

These are from my state alone...

Nope I have driven since age 15. It's funny because I always relate to the laundry list of chronically alone/terminally online problems but driving has never been one of them. Fear of flying I definitely have.

Understandably, a vehicle is a weapon.

I agree... I still don't trust the road. I helped a man stay awake after crashing into a man (both were on drugs) hope he's alright... I day dream getting hit by a car and instantly dying... or someone crashing into me. Or just driving into a lake or something.

Question-- you wanted to do partial hanging right? I wanted to do hanging until I practiced the tightening of the rope around my neck... Nope! XD SN it is.
