[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 998969, member: 17713"] There are a lot of medications that patients should inform DVLA of their usage. Some for depression... I know 5 years ago with my driving incident that after phoning DVLA and informing them that their lengthy drawn out processes were making me depressed I suddenly two days later had a further letter from them stating I had not informed them of all my medical circumstances. When I phoned to ask them what they were referring to it was because I had stated they were making me depressed- they wanted to have further evidence of any medication prescribed for the depression and that I wasn't going to deliberately kill myself driving... There are a lot of conditions that are reportable to DVLA and also a lot of medications. Patients are not always aware of this. [/QUOTE]
