Traffic can be horrendous going into Seattle. When I lived in Tacoma I hated to drive to Seatlle because of the traffic, but I had no choice. I would sometimes take 99 to avoid the highway and stop every now and then to check out a store or get some food, taking a break helped. Also, while I am driving, I make sure to put on the radio and do a lot of; thank goodness it is only me in the car singing or listen to old TV comedy programing from when I was growing up. This helps take the anxiety away and relax enough to make the drive.
I know it is hard, but you can do it. Hopes this helps some. 🤗 😊
