I got in a car accident last week. Some idiot rear-ended me. And dealing with this whole thing is causing me serious anxiety. You'd think a car accident would mostly just cause physical pain, but it's causing me some mental anguish now too.
I've had to call my supervisor at work, the insurance company, personal injury claims adjuster, auto body shop, chiropractor, might end up having to call a lawyer. I have major phone anxiety to begin with and this whole situation is seriously putting me over the top.
It's beyond irritating that I was driving carefully, in fact, I was completely stopped waiting for the car in front of me to turn, when some idiot who clearly wasn't paying attention rear-ended me. I was crying and basically having a panic attack the night it happened cause I'm unfamiliar with how to deal with situations like this and I don't like talking on the phone, so I was just freakin' out.
Has anyone else ever been in a car accident like this? I keep wishing that I was still a kid, so that I could have my parents handle all this for me. But I'm legally an adult so I have to handle all this grown-up crap on my own. ::
