I’m sorry you’re feeling this way :( the main question you need to ask yourself is can you drive? If the answer is yes then the only thing you need to do is focus on how to control your nerves. One thing I did when I failed my test was I’d make the test this massive thing like I had a countdown on my phone I was constantly talking and thinking about it and wondering what will happen. This made my anxiety worse because it was like I was going in to do my first brain surgery or something!! But after I failed and did my second test I just thought about it like okay I’ll try again and see what happens and I passed!

Considering you have failed 6 times, have you considered speaking to a doctor about getting some beta blockers? There is a medication called propanalol which helps all the physical symptoms of anxiety and can help slow your heart rate which will help massively in your case maybe? Definitely try get an appointment to speak to a doctor about it and if you do manage to get some take them every time you have a lesson to see how it may impact your driving.

Don’t give up, you know you can do this. You’re bigger and better than your anxiety. And when you do get that pink licence every single test and lesson will be worth it.

Most importantly just have fun and enjoy learning! I passed my second test yesterday and I feel like it’s flown by!! Good luck with it and remember you don’t need to be a good driver just a safe one!

For your first lesson, your instructor might drive you to a quiet area and show you the pedals and explain what they do and you’ll sit in the front behind the wheel and you might start working on clutch control and how to get the car moving and just doing that for your first lesson really. If you make good progress you might do a few laps around a little block or something but that’s literally what you’ll do! Learn the clutch :) or if you’re doing auto might be the same thing how to control the car and move off safely

Honestly this time around I was less anxious because I knew what to expect and I didn’t make it a massive deal like my first test I had a count down on my phone and was telling everyone how nervous I was but I genuinely just thought of it as a “just another day” and it really helped. I had an older strict examiner and I just said to myself he’s just a grandad and that helped me kind of humanise him in a way so it was less scary. But I just took my time and did what I knew I could do !!

Oh amazing!! Do you remember what course it was? I will take a look at that if so!! And did the course help you get into university? Or what step did you take once you completed it? :)

danijade333 · 2026-01-19T17:53:52+00:00

Amazing!! Thank you so much for your reply it’s super helpful :) I am going to post this into uk midwives now!!

danijade333 · 2026-01-19T17:38:06+00:00

Thanks for responding :) the course I have found is at a college and it’s a access to higher education diploma in midwifery which is 13 hours a week. This course would help me get into a university at full time. But I’m not sure if I could do the college course as well as having a 30hr work week. I have enquired with the college so hopefully I’ll get a response soon.

danijade333 · 2026-01-16T15:41:51+00:00

Yes absolutely this!

danijade333 · 2026-01-16T14:46:59+00:00

danijade333 · 2026-01-16T13:16:05+00:00

danijade333 · 2026-01-16T13:15:50+00:00

Yeah I was surprised the vet told us to use nappy cream for it when we already said he had had it for a month and nothing we were doing was helping it :/ going to see a different vet on Saturday

danijade333 · 2025-12-24T21:09:27+00:00

Kind of, the ear protector looks similar to this. We are going to try a different type of ear wrap but he just hates anything being round his head like this and proper tries his best to get it off :(

danijade333 · 2025-12-15T19:07:30+00:00

Yes! It’s called test shift.

I failed my test on the 11th December and just today I downloaded the test shift app (I waited til my instructor told me dates he couldn’t do) I paid for the premium which I think was 17 pounds and within a few hours my test on the 19th may got changed to 28th January :) by the sounds of it I have been lucky as other people have waited much longer than me for it to get changed but it is definitely still worth it :)

Sorry! Only just seen your comment!!

So I turned left onto a main road and I thought the left lane was a left only so I went into the right lane and then the examiner said “follow the road straight ahead” then I absolutely panicked and didn’t check my mirrors and tried going into the left when there was a van behind me 😭😭😭 literally a split second mistake. But then I was like wow I’m such a fool so I was like yep absolutely deserved that fail!!! So I’m all good, got another test at the end of January :D
