I told my new boss that I am bipolar. He reacted by thanking me for telling him! It's just that I have such a long commute, and when I get my blood drawn, I have to do it during work hours, because that is when the lab is open. Better come clean about the absences than try to lie about it. Also, there is always the little problem of taking potentially dangerous meds and having no one around know what you are on. If I go toxic and no one at work knows I take Lithium, things could get bad. Sigh.
