I worked as a Support Worker caring for Men who all have Autism. 2 of the guys also have Bipolar. I was sacked from my job on "ill health" grounds. I was told my manager would need "Mental Health training" Ironic huh!! We are not Mental Health trained ie Bipolar trained..... yet we had 2 service users who have the disorder and a lot of the staff were off due to Depression. So we had Bipolar and Depression floating around work but no-one understands it!
