I'm pretty selective in saying. I have little interaction, so not sure how much it'd amount to anyway(!) I've never disclosed at a job, just had to deal with the consequences. I've always worked at VERY small places, so there's nothing like an HR dept. and they are exempt from FMLA, so...
A notable example from my work history: Had a boss once (at the max it was a 5 person shop) who declared that one day he simply decided he wasn't going to have headaches anymore. (!!!!!) (I'd say he'd never had a real one if it were
that simple(!)) Sooo, anyway... you can imagine how BP would've gone over. While there, I had a really big depression. Way beyond hiding. Fortunately there was a situational thing he assumed it was, so I just said, "yeah, that". It wasn't.
It'd be nice to be able to say, but situations aren't always conducive to it.
