And I can't tell pnurse because I signed a paper that "I will let her know if there are any further incidences with either biting or driving, and appropriate measures will be taken; not limited to restricting driving if necessary if strong alters are taking over". I will not lose my driving privileges!!!
My safety net is gone. Where I thought I could get help with the behavior is gone.
New t told me to get 10 a ball to chew on  22 said to me "she's not a d... Dog".
"I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine"
And alone.

question....if this was someone else what would you tell them...reason i ask this is right now you are in the emotional side of this. take yourself out of the equation for a moment and imagine this is happening to someone else while they are driving. or teaching. now imagine this person is in one car and you are in another car on the same road... how is what they are going through going to affect you... would what is happening to them put you another driver in danger of having an accident for which you may not survive.
my point is yes its hard to give up driving, its horrible and not fair, that something out of your control is costing you , your right to drive... but so will being in prison for knowing this is not safe and purposely putting others in danger, possibly killing another human being. I know its hard. Ive been there. I had to give up my driving in order to not harm another human being due to my health issues. what got me to see reason was that my wife sat me down and said what good is being able to drive if you are in prison for murder because you lost control while driving. she was right, its well and good to be able to drive but those driving privileges are wasted if you end up harming someone.
driving privileges can be given back/returned/reinstated after the problems have been taken care of, a human beings life is not able to be given back, returned should you ave an accident while driving and losing control.
my suggestion is do this on your terms. go to the motor vehicle department and hand in your license before you even tell your pnurse. then later on down the road after this problem has been cleared up reapply for your license to be returned. sometimes all thats needed is a doctors statement that your mental and physical health no longer poses a danger to yourself and others to have the license reinstated/reactivated.
this way maybe it wont feel like a punishment but rather you doing a good deed of being responsible and saving lives.
