Hiya!!

As a learner myself I can completely relate I go into trances and get so nervous that my instructor has to shout at me because I've nearly crashed a few times!

I wouldn't say I get anxiety about it, my first driving instructor said to me he had a guy that was shaking so wildly while driving that he literally couldn't do it because he was so anxious, he went to the doctors about it and first went on pills but he wasn't keen on them so he got hypnotised and that worked amazingly apparently. It depends whether you believe in hypnotism. You'd be surprised how many options there are for anxiety and finding breathing methods to help you! I'm thinking about going to the doctors and I think you should too!

Sorry I couldn't give you any better advice but I really hope you manage to pass!
