Question: What are you afraid of if you suffer from vehophobia?

Answer: You have a fear of driving. It can range from mild highway jitters to an absolute refusal to get behind the wheel. It often develops after a car accident or near-miss, and expresses itself in the symptoms of a panic attack: Sweating, trembling, shortness of breath, and chest pain or tightness. Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the most effective treatments.
