Mental health issues are no barrier to the return of a licence .Just got my medical records for the last 6 years from my GP so I can fill the medical forms correctly and accurately. IM SCREWED. most of these questions in the last 6 years have you....
Been dependant, not addicted to but dependant on alcohol. Answer...Yes 2016.
In the last 6 years have you been involved in an RTA due to alcohol....Answer yes 2019
Either of these boxes I'm sure will give dvla all the excuse they need to contact my gp.
Also records pointing to mental health issues and taking anti depressants in or around 2016.
I don't see me getting my licence back any time soon
Re the accident: many of us would have to tick yes to that as it is often an accident ( even if tiny bump) , that prompts the arrest.
Yes, if you answer correctly, you will have a potential issue re alcohol use . However , issues of the licence apart , I’m wondering from what you say whether you yourself are perhaps a bit puzzled / concerned re your recent drinking after such a period of abstinence ? Maybe you will decide you need to have a think about this . Good luck with everything anyway .
