I hope you have better luck than I did. Maybe it would have been easier if I hadn't had to tell them I was bipolar, but my pdoc was the one to take me out of work and then wrote a request for reasonable accommodations for me when he let me go back. My employer decided the accommodations couldn't be made, and fired me a few days after I returned because it was clear that I couldn't perform the functions of my job without them.

Don't wanna be a Debbie Downer, but stigma is alive and (unfortunately) well even in this supposedly enlightened era. Hope it goes well for you.
