[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 547318, member: 84"] Oh, I hate Cincy anyway. I actually loath that city. lol I think Nichole will eventually come around as she grows more confident, she doesn't have many of my issues. I've always had this issue but to a much much lesser degree, post Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) it is through the roof and nothing makes it better, not even medications. I couldn't drive interstate through a major city because my brain would shut down due to both anxiety and too much stimuli and that would not be a good thing lemme tell you. easy child and and I drove up school supplies for the Rez where their Uncle Guy was collecting them.........we took I 75 and omg.....easy child who is not normally bothered was ready to toss me right out of the car. I was either jumping out of my skin, or shutting my eyes, tensed up to the max, holding my breath, clenched jawed......just to endure it without [B]causing[/B] an accident. And I know that route like the back of my hand. If someone ever feels the need to torture me, that would be the perfect way. Needless to say, I grew up in a rural city in the friggin middle of nowhere in central Illinois. There are no inner city interstates type thing. My first exposure was when we went to Kansas for sis's wedding when I was 17........(what a mess that city is/was) I didn't see any of Kansas city, I spent the time going through the city on the floor of the car. No joke. Chicago/St Louis via school bus? Same thing with years of teasing to follow. It's like bumper cars on steroids. :rofl: I can laugh right now, I'm no where near either a major city or an interstate at this moment. LOL [/QUOTE]
