My friend has schizophrenia. I know he can't drive due to the meds he's on. Can't remember what they're called. Zo something?

As you handed it in voluntarily it looks to me that at most you might need your GP to approve you as medically fit. I think handing it in was likely a good idea.

That's where I'd start, by asking your GP if they'd do that. They'll know all about any potential drugs issues and alternative drugs may be available.

Then it's pretty much just a D1 or M1 form from the DVLA.

I'm certainly not an expert, this is just advice.

Good luck
