Hi there.
I am new to this forum, and would like to know if there is anyone who suffers from the same feelings that I have been getting since I was a child.
If I have to travel in a car, bus or train (or anything that moves without me being in control) I get a sudden rush of intense butterflies in my stomach. It`s like the feeling you get when you drop when you are on a roller coaster. I just want the vehicle to stop straight away and it just gets worse if it`s not possible to stop.
It has made my life hell and I avoid travelling whenever possible. It has got so bad that I have been known to open the car door when my husband has been driving on the motorway. It really frightened my poor husband and me and I`m scared to death that one day I`m going to cause a serious accident.
Am I the only person to get this feeling? My GP is no help at all.
