Why This Matters
The trauma of a crash can linger, even after physical healing. You might fear walking or relive the moment of impact. Emotional recovery is just as vital—here’s how to cope.
Emotional Challenges
- Fear of Traffic
Returning to streets can feel impossible.
- Tip: Start with low-traffic areas to rebuild confidence.
- Anger at the Driver
Frustration is natural, especially if they were careless.
- Tip: Channel it into a legal claim for justice.
- Anxiety Over Recovery
Bills and injuries can overwhelm.
- Tip: Break it into manageable steps with support.
Support Resources

- Health Clinics: Many offer affordable mental health care.
- Support Groups: Connect with others who’ve been there.
