Okay, so... The last week has been pretty bad. I posted before about my break down due to stress, and now, I'm even more stressed. I think my stress level is what's keeping me from kicking this flu/cold that I have. Dx

Anyways, it's worse and I'm feeling a bit down again because of something that's happening with work.

Basically, my boss is trying to get me to quit by cutting my hours. This schedule, for six weeks, I have ZERO days. He didn't give me anything. And he hired someone new, who I assume is to replace me.

I'm a very good worker, I do my job well and I don't love it, but when I'm there, I act like I do. It's retail and I love helping others.

But what's got me upset is the reason why he's doing this.

At the beginning of the year, I went through a difficult time with my illness. Some new symptoms turned up that I wasn't used to, such as hallucinations and paranoia. My moods got increasingly worse too. It got so bad to the point that at times, I couldn't function. I still went to school, because you could only miss a certain amount of days (though, I got a note from my psychologist saying I was allowed to miss more, so I did). But I had to miss work too. I was so out of it, I could barely function. I told my boss what was going on, and that we were trying out new medications, and he said he would try to work around it with me and that he did need me to be there when he schedules me, but he would try to work around this.

Well, he did for a short bit, then he started giving me lame excuses as to why my hours needed to be cut. So he started to cut my hours, because I couldn't come in due to my mental illness. I will admit right now, that there were days I didn't go in because I didn't want to. But a majority of the time, I was having bad mental health days.

I feel... Like I'm being discriminated against, because of my illness. My family doesn't think he's going to fire me, because he knows I could sue him for what he's doing. But I don't know how to handle it.

I just started applying to so many new places, places that would make me much happier, and I know now not to call in a lot, but I'm stable on my medication so I wouldn't have to.

I'm just... Not sure how to handle this, because I feel really stressed about it and upset. It's the only job I've had before and I've had it for two years. I don't know how to handle this situation...

Anyways, thank you for reading this if you did. I know it's kind of long. I'm just not in a good place right now.
