My wife went through a similar challenge. My suggestion is to find a way to get started, the easiest way possible. That may be in an office or school parking lot on a weekend - whatever is large enough, open and convenient. Then find an off-street bike trail and ride at times when there's not much activity but don't hurry. Anything worthwhile takes time. Make certain you get a helmet.
Let us know how you're doing and feel free if you want to send a private message.
