Had wreck on Friday...

I am in full blown panic attack right now. I believe the Lord blessed me on Friday morning. I was on my way to work when I t-boned another vehicle. I am 43 and this is my first wreck ever. While waiting on the police and other emergency vehicles I was calm. I was calm throughout the whole incident. My brother came and got me and took me home. I was able to relax throughout the weekend, however, I woke up by my alarm about an hour ago in a full blown panic attack. I am scared to death about getting out today. My aunt is letting me borrow her extra car, but I am terrified about getting out.

I made it to work this morning. I am so terrified now to drive, but I made the 20 mile journey.

To tell a little more....

I am supposed to get the accident report today and take it to my insurance company. I am not sure if they have considered the wreck my fault or the other driver's fault. If it is considered my fault, then I don't know what I will do.

Here's what happened....

I was at a stop sign at a divided highway waiting to get in the median so I could go northbound on this highway. I had my left blinker on. There was a car on the other side of the highway I guess waiting to do the same. My side finally cleared, so I crossed into the median. I looked back toward the northbound traffic and within 5 seconds it was clear enough for me to pull out. Not even looking back toward the other car because I assumed I had the right-of-way, I floored it and turned just long enough to see the other vehicle right there. I t-boned him. Neither one of us were hurt, but they took him off in an ambulance for precautionary reasons. They said he just had hip surgery and I would guess that he was in his mid-70s.
