[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's interesting. When we moved from a capital city to a rural town, everyone in the family was relieved not to have to slalom in and out of traffic like F1 drivers. We relished the slower pace.

Anger is a reaction rooted in fear. Why do you think this situation makes you so afraid? Are you perhaps claustrophobic? Do you feel suffocated when stuck in a long line of slow-moving vehicles?

If this is a particular form of claustrophobia, you need to find a therapist that specializes in that particular condition.

Oh, this is interesting. I do feel claustrophobic when I'm stuck in a line of traffic! But I don't have problems flying or caving, for whatever that's worth. I'm going to pursue this idea more, thanks.[/quote]

PP you replied to. My Japanese cousin experiences such severe claustrophobia on planes that she cannot fly anymore. She has trouble with the metro as well, but is fine with trains, cars, elevators, etc. Her condition was triggered by a serious earthquake and aftershocks in her town. 
You could absolutely feel this in traffic, but not in other enclosed spaces. [/quote]
