I haven't had an incident like that, but I have had some close calls that left me shaken, but not to the point of not riding. HOWEVER, I did have an incident 17 years ago where I was blown off an icy highway in my rear-wheel drive Mustang, and even though I went out and bought new, better winter tires, for the next year, I got panicky and feared highway driving in the snow or rain. Eventually I got over it, and a couple of years after that I bought an AWD Subaru. My wife then bought an AWD car, and I just replaced the Subaru with another AWD car, my first non-manual transmission car in 31 years. If I want to shift gears, I have three bicycles. Anyway, you CAN do it Novakane. I didn't see if you used a mirror or not. I know the incident took place in front of you, but I have found a helmet or glasses mounted mirror, plus a bell for pedestrians, and an AIr-Zound air horn for cars works great for my confidence (as well as lights for dusk, dawn and night, although some use them in daytime, too.) The bike incident that left me most shaken was at a stop sign at a 2-way stop residential intersection. I waited for a couple of cars to pass; one from the left and one from the right. The car on the right passed, the car on the left passed and I began to cross when another car from the right came flying through at at least 40 mph! I don't know how I missed him as I had just scanned one or two seconds earlier. He may have pulled away from the curb, or been blocked from my view by the vehicle I did see. And with two other vehicles there was much engine noise going on.
