I was in a(nother) car accident a few weeks ago. I was already pretty terrified of cars and had some mild anxiety, but it's been awful since then. Luckily, I'm back at school and take the train everywhere, so I rarely have to deal with riding in a car right now, but I have nightmares every night. Not bad dreams, just normal dreams where I'm sobbing inconsolably and no one notices. Last night I was even trembling in my sleep, it woke me up a few times. I'm exhausted, and I can't even workout because I was injured in the accident. I can't go out to relax because I don't know anyone at this new school and I'm trying to stay off my leg until it's better. And I find myself impulsively telling my family to "drive safe" every single time I talk to them and asking them not to go out driving if they don't have to. My eating has gone to s**t, too. I just keep thinking bingeing will make me feel better, or I don't feel like eating at all.
I'm not sure what to do to make myself feel better, do you have any suggestions?
