I have been on the fence about replying on this thread....

I can see all the many sides people have pointed out,, for pursuing this and walking away.

I do know there are some differences between laws in Canada and USA.

I would consider the whole process and if its going to cause you emotional upheaval and destabilize you, I know your currently seeking out ECT and/or other meds to find stability.

Maybe grabbing hold of this and working on it will be something healthy to focus on and it certainly may make others who find employment there will have a better non judgemental experience.

I do know here in the USA.. the ADA is really all bark and no bite. Sure they talk all about standing up for people when they are discriminated on the job. But sadly the reality here is the employers hold the power and if you do fight back, Employers will make changes to " look good" but then 3 months later write you up 3 times for being 1 minute late to work or coming back from lunch or break and have a "legitimate reason" to let an employee go... This isn't 100% but its certainly more the norm.

Also here in the USA seems like everyone is always sueing someone one for something , So our court systems are over loaded and most everything just gets put off and/or made so difficult that people just throw there hands up and say to hell with this.. "I was looking for a job when i found that/this one"

I think if you have been advised that you do in fact have a good case and your up to that.. then by all means go for it. What if once this process starts ( I dont know how long it takes in your country) you find it knocks you sideways , Are you able to drop out or do you have follow through to the end regardless if this is something that is going to be harder on you than expected/planned on?

And lastly .. Good luck in whatever you decide to do. I am glad that you found PC , These kind of situations happen and by discussing it other people can think about what they would /should/could do in there own lives if faced with the " Do I disclose"
