I am very chlostrophobic (sorry about the spelling) and I often get anxious in elevators, closed spaces, etc. but lately I have been feeling onsets of anxiety attacks when i am stuck in traffic. (I have had this happen about twice) I know what causes it: i feel nervous in closed spaces and when i'm in traffic I feel trapped. Does anyone have any advice on learning how to calm down when stuck in traffic? I try to listen to the radio, make calls on my cell phone, anything to keep my mind off of it but it doesnt seem to work! Traffic is a part of everyday life! any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
