You have my sympathies! I just got fired, essentially, for nursing while bipolar.....I was the DNS for a large assisted living facility and it finally got too much for me to handle. I went out on medical leave in mid-April because I was freaking out at work, and my pdoc gave me the choice between taking leave and going inpatient. When I got back, I was terminated even without a trial of the 'reasonable accommodations' my doctor and I requested. Not sure how they got around the ADA on that one, but they did.

Which was f'ed up, IMHO---they've known about my BP for some time. It shouldn't have surprised anyone that I cracked under the extreme pressure. But where's the compassion, the 'core values' they always brag about in their mission statement? What a joke.
