I have epilepsy and I am unsure how to start navigating biking.

I'm somewhat new to outdoor biking (did a lot of spin). I have to say goodbye to my car for now, and I am so scared to bike out there cause I'm such a novice and people drive crazy sometimes. I'll do it in my neighborhood, but yeesh, too scared to go beyond that.

I'm in suburbs where even sidewalks are a distant memory. I live maybe a 1-2 mile from 1960 and I would hate to be the next death story 😳

Regardless… I need to start doing something. I don't want to slave money I work hard to make to put into uber. I do have a boyfriend who will pick me up when we hang together, and I do have my mom that drops me to work, but for other things, I want to be somewhat independent…

For those of you who bike/walk outside the city of Houston, how do you make it work?
