I feel like disclosure is fairly risky in this economy. My therapist feels like it could help in setting limits at work, since so far they pretty much ignore my requests to keep my hours part-time and call constantly and over-schedule me so that it's very difficult to do what I need to do to stay well.
Anyone have any experience with disclosing your illness to your employer? I feel like even though there are technically legal protections, disclosing your illness is still an invitation to terminate--like, they'll find a reason if they know.
