New Driver Syndrome is a rush of anxiety and nausea lasting 2-5 days as a result of getting your drivers license and driving alone for the first time. New Driver Syndrome occurs especially if you also have a new car to drive by yourself. The only way to overcome this is to start driving your parents around in your new car, eventually driving without them.

The two states of being are as a human being, or a hungry ghost. Semi-regularly you need to ask yourself which you are. Sometimes it is human. Others, alas, it is hungry ghost.

The hungry ghost seeks validity outside of themselves. Someone pining for an indifferent ex is a hungry ghost. Someone who arrives alone at 6:30 on Saturday night to a pub is probably a hungry ghost. Obsessive checking of mobile phones, chat sites or networks are clear signs that one is a hungry ghost.

The best thing to do is just stay home and ride it out. Read a book. Find some good clean fun.
