I too have a driving phobia. I always avoid the highway and other very busy heavy traffic streets. I can always find a way to get somewhere by side streets. Also, if I need to go into the city I take public transportation. Have you thought of taking a bus or train if it is available to you? I am surprised by how well I can get around by just avoiding what I can't do. I'm sure some people think I am limiting myself and that is true but I have had such bad panic attacks in traffic that I would rather be limited than suffer again.
