  • Thanks @eyebrows and @Ludd. I took the train today as the thought of getting on my bike was making me feel panicky. Yesterday on the way home I freaked out in the middle of a junction. It's dangerous and stupid, and entirely counter-productive as it just makes me feel MORE anxious. I don't know where this all-consuming fear has come from but it's making me really unhappy (am I a chopper now??).

    I've been this way for ages now. I've no real idea what's caused mine either, but it's making me miserable too. I've been taking public transport for months which also makes me sad, because it is public transport, vom, but at least I don't need to struggle with the DO NOT WANT sensation rising in my throat when I look at one of my bikes :/

    TBF you did just cycle across Europe though, that'd be enough to put most people off for a bit.
