I've lost my driving privileges a couple times. The last time I was way more traumatized by the accident and it took me a little longer to get back on the road (2 years). I still only drive very minimal, my fiancee drives most of the time. But it's where your comfort level is. I always ask myself these questions when it comes to driving:

Do feel confident that your meds are right??
Did you sleep well last night??
Are you stressing about something??
Did you do everything you needed to do to be "healthy"??

I drive now but not to far away. If I get tired I pull into a Walmart somewhere and take a nap. Not driving in excess I believe is the key.
