I've got documentation, but it's all negative toward me.

I've never told them that I'm bipolar, so I can't claim that they fired me for it. I guess.
Here in Cali, you can still get unemployment, but it doesn't come out of employer's unemployment insurance/UI funds nor does it raise employer's UI tax rate. That's why employers fire someone with cause, like poor performance, attendance, etc. Or they try to get the employee to quit.

I think you should be able to get unemployment or disability. The unemployment would maybe only last a certain amount of time. But time for you to focus on your health would be a good idea.
