Hi, jwork87, and welcome to Psych Central! Wow, that's a tough one. As you said, the guy you offended is a relative--and then you quit. I fear that will make any promises to you null and void.

You could beg for your job back and tell about your meds, but I am not sure that will help. Do they even know you have a historic problem with depression? I certainly wouldn't demand anything of anyone.

You might talk about how much you like working for the company and that you were having a temporary family issue that's now been resolved. (lie? well?) And ask for a chance to redeem yourself by them allowing you to work for awhile--say for five months?-- to show them it was a fluke. They would have to go through some effort to replace you anyway. Then maybe after that period of time things will have cooled off some, and you will get your job back on a permanent basis.

I suspect that's the best you might hope for. My thoughts, anyway.

Other folks? What do you think?

I sure hope everything will work out well. We are here for you, and we care.
