I'd advise against this.

If you stop the lessons for a while after your confidence has been knocked like this, it'll be even harder to go back to them and before you know it years have passed and you'll be too scared to start again.

I wouldn’t stop, just do automatic. I have so much more confidence with an automatic.
What a lazy way of driving.

That's amazing.

I agree with this. You may take a bit longer than others but you’ll get there in the end. Maybe take a short break to focus then get back in that car. Just focus on that licence.

I've just come back from probably my best lesson yet (I wasn't on a dual carriageway granted) but it went really well, I think the encouragement in here and other circumstances outside of driving have really boosted my confidence. Didn't do one thing wrong.
