Thread: Using LDs to Combat Fears?

I have a mortifying fear of driving. I do realize that I will have to drive in the future, but that doesn't make it any less scary.

I have gone driving a few times, and I was way too tense behind the wheel. I've tried everything I could think of to combat the fear, but nothing seems to be working.

The odd thing about all of this is that whenever I drive in a dream (Non-Lucid), it feels...natural. As if I'd done it for years.

That got me thinking: Is it possible to use LDs to make me less fearful of driving? I know I'm not the only one with a fear, and I think an answer to this might help others that have fears that are hard to overcome.

Definitely possible, lucid dreaming is one of well known ways to confront and defeat fears, i've defeated many sorts of fears through LDing myself in the past(Though not that specific one since i don"t drive anyway, but still). You could talk to DC representing your subconscious about it, or try driving in lucid especially since you seem to not have any problems with it non-lucid, it should help you with getting more confident.

That's one of my goals since I practice lucid dreaming; I want to face my social anxiety and defeat it.
