??: Sounds like post traumatic stress 2nd to your accident unfortunately bicycles can be dangerous as can any physical activity esp if pushed to the max probably should see someone regarding this start with pcp seem most reasonable ? Maybe a "sports psychologist" good luck.

Are you feeling : Insecure because of concerns about a deformity, worry that you haven't healed properly or that you could be injured again or just lack of resolution from the accident in general? For medical concerns - you can start with your physician. For concerns of an emotional nature - consider talking with a psychologist or a therapist. Take care.
