The cross bar saved my life as I was hit at 40mph on the drivers side door by and SUV. I now own a new Saturn Ion, with same saftey features and cross bar. It's a super safe car and God forbid, can save your life. The Ion's also come equipt with OnStar incase you need any help.

Im not sure if a newish one would be within your budget so you may have to look for a Polo, I think you would find the solid "clunk" when you shut the doors reassuring.

I've not had one while driving, but I have had one as a passenger. You have other options. If you are not on medication or your meds aren't working, talk to your doctor. If you know exactly what triggers the panic attacks, it's easier to find a remedy. (For instance, my mom used to pinch her thigh as hard as she could if she was driving.) Try to be as safe as possible - a panic attack while driving could cause a major accident. Check out the school bus system, or see if anyone in the neighborhood carpools, if you don't have a relative or friend available to drive your daughter. If none of these things are an option, you may be able to find a cheap car at carmax, or a used car lot. (I found my Accent for 10,000, barely used.) I don't know if you are claustrophobic, but a cheaper car usually equals a smaller car. Good luck to you!<br><b>References : </b><br>Epileptic with anxiety.

If for some reason you don't want to do that, use anything that will relax you such as over the counter antihistamines, or the latest sleep med that has 3 ingredients in it: 5HTP and melatonin and one other. I think it's call Altovil or something beginning with A. Your 4 main brain chemicals are out of balance and that is easy for your doc to correct with the benzodiazapine class of drugs and others.<br><b>References : </b><br>R.N.

I found one with lots of different textures. When a panic attack is coming I have it close and can hold it in my hand. I usually use my thumb to feel the different textures and put all my concentration on that until it passes. Stones are easy to find and are free so you can change them often. Which also helps as you can compare them to the others you have.<br><b>References : </b><br> I carry a very small stone/ rock with me. I found one with lots of different textures.

I don't think it's safe for you to be driving if you have known panic attacks while driving. This is not safe for you, other drivers and, most importantly, your daughter! Can you make other arrangements for her to get to school?<br><b>References : </b><br> My first suggestion before getting a vehicle would be to see a doctor ASAP if you haven’t already.
