This is my first post at PC. I am diagnosed with ADD and bipolar-2 disorder. Recently, I've been offered a substantial raise to take on an organzationally challenging job as a Program Manager for a number of household hazardous waste sites. I'm a bit terrified of what I'll be up against. I don't feel safe telling my managers that I have these diagnoses but I am being proactive in my approach to this totally new experience. I will be going in after my shift to train while my replacement is being found and trained. I'm doing this so that my first day in this alien position won't feel like the longest day of my life. This process of finding a replacement (actually, two people are needed to cover what I've been doing) will take some time, so I'll have a bit of a head start. I'm wondering if recording what I'm being taught might help, along with furiously taking notes. Good luck with your new position, sara76 and thank you all for your insights. Aloha
