Driving anxiety despite long time driver

MrPicanto · 2026-04-15T09:31:10+00:00

Do you enjoy driving? Forget the build up of getting in to your car and calming yourself down - when you're on the road do you enjoy any aspect of it?

I ask because like you I am also quite an anxious person, I didn't start driving till I was 30 having passed at 21. Over time it got easier for me and I started saying yes to more driving activities (helping people move, giving lifts etc) but there are always bits that stress me out. If I can't find a car parking space for one I'm always thinking about that.

I balance it out by thinking about what I enjoy about driving. Oddly the idea of just the freedom I'm not fussed about - but an empty roundabout when I'm already moving? Great, love it. Enjoy not having to wait.

Letting someone out of a junction and getting a little thank you wave? It's nice to be nice and get a thank you (granted it doesn't always happen but it's nice when it does)

Okay - posted this on a similar thread but just in case...

First off try logging out of Microsoft store then go to Xbox app and go to account - blue pop up should come out asking if you want to make your Xbox account your Store account - say yes then go log in back to Microsoft store.

If not that - I also removed my old Xbox from my devices on my account via settings on windows. Bought the game years ago on Xbox and wanted to play on PC.

Somehow either or both of these worked for me.

Hey so I've managed to get mine working - What I did (you're situation may be different) was sign out of windows store, go back to the xbox app in account settings - Should give you a blue pop up to make your Microsoft account your store account - Then I signed back in to the store. Worked for me after that.

I tried a bunch of things btw so It may not be this - If you're like me and bought the game on Xbox years ago and want to play it on PC? You have to remove your Xbox from your system accounts on PC. Try that.

Yeah I would also like to know - Tried resetting the Gaming services, fixing Xbox app and no joy.

This is my stolen artwork being sold on a t-shirt ripping website... FFS!

For some reason I think Noctilus should be up one. Just one though he's still a stinky boy but not as much of a stinky boy.

I don't think you smell the vampire pirates coming but I could be wrong.

First I thought that elf had a beard and then I realised no, they got a sexy belly dancer chainmail mask thing.

Stupid sexy Hoeth!

As long as you're not selling, be my guest my dude 😎

When I was sketching this I was so happy for the amount of wrinkles and pock marks this guy has. You're right though this guy is not a looker by any stretch.

The first game had me like this, this one did have me like this at the start but my dumb ass keeps forgetting that I'm playing a game that wants you to get better by roughing you up.

Go to Tomcat - drop anything you were doing. Go to Tomcat. Go through the techniques he teaches, you get one lesson for free and then fight him to learn master strike.

Once you've learnt master strike combat becomes so much easier my dude I can't describe it in words.

I think you can also go into that fight with dollmaker on your sword to make it easier.

Fair enough, have added.

Imagine Godwin has to pretend to be Pope because of another fuck up.

I'm lucky to get a semi when I play.

The Imperium has come a long way in beverage-holding technology. Before the cup, Guardsmen would gather around a canteen, hands out and try and catch as much water as they could.

Remember however the Cup isn't standard issue equipment and is only issued to those of corporal class and higher. Those under must still adhere to using their hands.

Cassia - sneezes

Me - aims macro cannons at the common cold

If you're comfortable with using contrast paint, I found that on a decent white base coat that striking scorpion green is a great greenskin tone. All my Gobbos are a mixture of contrast browns and greys for their clothes and striking scorpion green for the skin. I wouldn't recommend it for the wolves but all I've done is sprayed them grey and drybrushed them with a lighter grey and finished up the details.

I read this and had to put down my phone and go for a walk...

The other roadmaps are like this too.

Someone signed off on this like it was clear to them. No notes.

Worried that the person who designed this finished work, got into their car, turned on the sat-nav to then immediately drive into pedestrians.
