Default Ok I know I am stupid

Even though it's been a very nice winter I haven't been able to ride first I was sick, then I hurt my back. Last fall my bike was at my son's house and I was riding from there. I brought the bike home now comes the problem. I live on a hill and the driveway is gravel with a slight curve in the middle. I am terrified to ride down this hill and it's really not that steep. The what if game has played in my head all winter. What if I drop it, if I get it up is it going to just run off and leave me? If the road was straight I might could deal better. There is NO flat place here where I ride out of my yard. (I am sick to death of this place) Everyone doubting me doesn't help either. It's like everything I knew last fall has gone out the window. My son keeps telling me "yes you can, look how far you were riding by yourself last fall. This is the only gravel road that terrifies me. HELP!
