Went to renew my driver’s license today only to learn that I had a mental health hold put on me

Now I have to jump through a bunch of hoops to maybe be able to drive again in several weeks

So much for de-stigmatization, that’ll teach me not to tell people about my problems

    For this to be true in the US (which is where I would guess you’re talking about, since you’ve used the initilization “DMV”), a court would have suspended or revoked your license for some reason, and you would already know about that.

    I don’t think there’s anywhere that would have said “This person is too mentally ill to be driving a car, but we’ll just let them find out when they go to renew their license.”
