This appears anxiety related, with indeed the dashcam helping to cope with this specific occurrence. I don't know which other issues you have regarding anxiety, but you might want to look into a more global solution. If its only with regards to dashcams, then (depending on your demographics) avoiding driving in Austria is likely a better solution.
Full disclosure: My previous diagnosis was GAD. Now I have an autism diagnosis. I use medication to feel less agitated and nervous. These work, for me, though also force me to zoom in less. YMMV.
- t-writescode 7y agoI'm diagnosed with OCD and have many of the symptoms for it. It tends to stay relatively low-grade and not life impacting, so long as I do the thing I said here. When it gets out of hand, I need to remember to follow through more with what this book told me to do: https://www.amazon.com/Brain-Lock-Twentieth-Anniversary-Obsessive-Compulsive/dp/006256143X https://www.amazon.com/Brain-Lock-Twentieth-Anniversary-Obse... That's the one my therapist had recommended. I try to avoid medication, but that's a personal preference. I do hope you the best on your journey! edit: removed a word that made my sentence mean what I didn't mean for it to mean.
- Fnoord 7y agoHey, though my comment was meant to be genuine I can, on reflection, understand that my comment got you angry. It did not occur to me that OCD could be a separate diagnosis even though I knew it is a specific ICD. Thanks for the book tip, I've added it to my list (I'm interested in related symptoms to [my] autism and some other PDs.)
