My first car accident vent
I was so excited to get Jersey Mikes. For some reason I woke up craving it. I was so motivated to get it I drove right after waking up. I was unfamiliar with the road.There was two traffic light and it confused me. Someone hit me and I pulled the car to the gas station. It happened so quick. My glasses broke. I felt adrenaline rushing. I did the normal exchange insurance and license and number. I had my car tow. I didn't feel the panic attack until hours after accident. Being in a car accident made me stop thinking so much in my head. After I started worrying a lot. Now I'm in my head thinking maybe I should embrace my wants and be more free spirit. Maybe I should appreciate my life and experience more. I feel like I go through the motions of life repressing my feelings. I could have died. Now I know worrying too much is not going to help. I just feel adrenaline rushing and mix panic emotions and stress. I'm thinking how will this affect me? It's my first accident because I've been a careful driver for 9 years. If I died, what would happen to my family and friend? What major change should I make with my life? How has this opened my eyes to change my life? How do I move forward with driving again? How do I get back on the horse after a car accident? Should I recognize and stop myself from being in my head too much?
