anxiety depression driving

Anxiety and depression in driving: clinically oriented mental-health symptoms and disorders as they affect driving — driving phobia, post-collision anxiety/PTSD, depressive symptomatology, rumination, and their effect on avoidance and performance. The psychopathology/symptom level, distinct from affect_mood, which is normal-range transient mood; from stress_driving, which is situational demand-induced strain rather than a clinical condition; and from anger_road_rage, which is hostility rather than internalizing distress.
