Get the short- and long-term disability policies off the Intranet and read them. It is important to get private disability instead of getting fired. Or, perhaps, you retain the option of qualifying for private disability through this employer even if fired - find out. If you get on disability instead of getting fired, you will retain medical insurance through the company. Moreover, the company might even pay your premium while you are out of work - find out. Yes, I easily believe the cost of Abilify because I pay as much for Geodon. I think you need to try to keep the job. Too many people know how to edit and proofread, even nowadays when you hear my pet peeve "I am doing good" soooo frequently (I swear I have heard it several times today!). You may not be able to compete in this marketplace, and with the added cost of medications you need to make more than the competition to break even. So even with the steep learning curve on your job, your job still remains the more viable, realistic option. Keep it at all costs, even if you have to go on the company-provided private disability first to stabilize on meds and learn skills. I will write more tomorrow. Good luck.
