I was literally HIT BY A CAR last weekend it's still fucking me up :((( how have we become so accustomed to such a traumatic built environment

I'm like scared around cars now in a way I wasn't before. I know part of it is I can't really catch myself with only one good arm if I get clipped but realizing there was this tiny level of trust I had in drivers that I no longer do. any person could get distracted and kill me :(

hopefully most of that goes away as I heal up. but i can already see that some of it will never leave me. I knew at an intellectual level the violent consequences of auto dependency but understanding it first hand is something else

It does. It takes longer than you think, because your body doesn't understand the difference for a while, but it does go away with time and rest and retraining. Keep up with the physical rehab, and forgive your *limbic system while it's trying its best.
