Driving,cannot drive on open roads,petrified of motorways no all backroads in ireland.help?

before i leave home I have to map out journey to avoid all major roads. I cannot rationalise this fear, been driving over 20 years. only in last four years getting worse. tried hypnosis,reiki.It's a mixture of fear of open spaces and claustraphobia.

Answers:
Would an open air car help? Perhaps a convertable, or rolling all the windows down?
Have you thought about taking a trip where someone does the driving for you? I did Ireland with a GO Travel Vaction tour bus. My husband had been ill and I was afraid to drive. I had a great time! Most of the roads in Ireland are pretty narrow.
just go all the backroutes or take someone with u
I would seek psychiatric help.
You could be heading towards Agoraphobia. Basically, a fear of the outside world, in general. Perhaps you should seek professional advice. In the mean time, maybe you should cut back on driving altogether. Being that uncomfortable behind the wheel of a car should be enough of a clue to stop driving, before something terribly irreversable occurs.
Good Luck!
