A two+ hour drive would really take it out of me. I would often have to stop and have a 10 minute nap.

I've found meds have really helped, I still feel tired, but I don't have to sleep afterwards or take naps.

Same with riding motorbike, but double. I think it's the intense concentration for long periods of time.

I think my driving issues are more related to autism. Driving just presents so much information in so little time that it, at times, completely overwhelms me. I got my license, but since I can basically cycle or use public transport to get anywhere I haven't driven a car in years at this point. I really dislike driving on public roads and nowadays I think I'd need a few courses again before I'll climb behind the wheel. I do like sim racing though.
