  2. I saw a video about these three teens in England who were texting and got into a fatal accident, and now it keeps replaying in my mind. It was so graphic and disturbing, and it's really bothering me now. I don't text when I drive, I don't even have my license! But the idea of this scares me, especially because my Mom is someone who texts. How can I get these images out of my head? It's really messing with my anxiety...

    that video is fake, its just to get the point across to not text and drive. when you do get your licence DONT text and drive. but for now watch funny videos or a funny movie to get your mind off it and you wont worry about it as much after.

    Just rationalize- these videos are intended to shock and scare people, with most of them being made up. Being on the phone whilst driving is no worse than needing to pee really badly whilst driving, or listening to the radio, or a hell of a lot of other things you Americans do whist driving.

    It's the government trying to scare you into doing stuff. Like "God" did with the bible.

    The Welsh one with the three girls? well the texting driver survived but she killed both her friends and the couple and their baby, leaving their tot alone in the world....It's suppose to make you feel bad :( that's the whole point.

    Maybe the answer is to get your mum to watch it with you....

    Totally know what you mean about it being in your head though, I watched a suicide on youtube once and even though I clearly knew going in what it was I was going to see, it spooked me for ages and I wished I hadn't seen it.
