Going deeper into your soul, do you sometimes feel uneasy, uncomfortable and unpleasant when walking or driving on certain roads?

Asked by ZEPHYRA (21750points) October 4th, 2014

Do certain areas, roads, streets or neighborhoods make you feel weird or scared for no real reason? It may not necessarily be an ugly place, it just makes you feel “off” somehow. Do you avoid going past those places or do you go by feeling detached?
How do you explain that repulsion? Ever felt that way? It’s a deep and unexplained feeling that has no aparent basis other than “weird” vibes of some sort.

To me, that would be called anxiety. No, I don’t have it.

Sure. At night when there is a big cliff and it’s a windy road.

Yes yes, I have felt that way sometimes. I don’t avoid visiting those places again but yes, some amount of discomfort can be felt in my chest.

Yes. My old stomping grounds scare the bejebus out of me. Crosswalks scare me. Actually all of the outdoors scare me. I feel safe at home every thing I need is here.

Never on a road. I find challenging roads are fun to drive. I do have some funky buildings like my office building, that give me weird sensations. I probably should be scared to drive, given how many close calls I have every day from idiots. And I’ve been hit by a pickup truck in a crosswalk, but those don’t scare me.

MAybe a little ‘off’ but not scared. I refuse to live in fear so I put out good vibes to the universe & they come back.

I totally get what you mean.

I would sometimes take a route that seemed to have a less negative association.

The problem is much less since I began taking medication for anxiety.
