Help please

I need encouragement or stories how did you learn how to drive a car??

I was 18. Graduated high school, going to college when I had a abusive ex he was supposed to be the one I trusted, he bashed my head in the car, he would drive and take my seat belt off while we were on the highway threatening to hit the breaks so I would die.

It was horrible, I'm now 24 years old and I have put an end to the relationship. I want to learn how to drive but I am afraid.
