It does have an impact . Difficult getting to destinations, where city transportations aren’t used

Good post, I agree with the other people's opinions here also, I used to drive when I was younger and had my condition and don't know I obtained it actually, I had it since 17 or 18 years old till 2011, when I decided to get ssdi and was in court and gave up my license to the court and state of my own account, I felt like I didn't want to drive anymore, I was in two prior accidents but one by myself and wasn't hurt that I recall and another one I had a friend who was with me got into a little accident also off in the back road of the mountain territory and no one was hurt either, but I am ok with out my license and it didn't take long to get used to not having it, I am ok with finding out about what I have to do or plan out where I have to get to and what I have to do to get there, pre planning does help with that, but if I do need a ride I will ask if I find it necessary or they ask me if I'm going that way, climb in, no problem at all, but other than that, I really don't want it back and I am ok with other means I have to get to my destination, I also use public transportation also but also that were here on that post here, I am definitely not going to use that Way Mo opinion out there, I am not going to do that at all, I refuse to no matter what amen my opinion here amen and everyone else here and your thoughts here on the post here, amen

When I couldn't drive, it was an up and down battle. I live in IL and worked in MO so I had to rely on co-workers if and when I had a seizure and had to wait at least six months to drive again. I didn't like to do it but they were very nice about it.

I love in Philadelphia. Public transportation takes me to south Jersey, northern Delaware, and surrounding Philadelphia suburbs. I call 911 if it’s an emergency.

The reason why I have seizures is because of my father gave me a concussion and that's how I started having really bad seizures
