Last year a woman left work basically telling me to **** off cuz I was reviewing her errors with her. She left out the door on her own. Said I'd fired her, we went to the little court thing and she won unemployment. That had nothing to do with MI, but shows some people know how to work the system. Those of us who don't know how it works get screwed. 
Get the lawyer for your ssi case & find out if you were unlawfully fired.
If you were my employee, I'd have helped you take a short term disability leave. California always strongly sides with the employee.
Side note: during my today's crisis, I considered filling an old adderall rx. It's probably expired but crossed my mind. I need to get back on track focused with work. I didn't do it & probably won't. Just want you to know I almost did that. And it doesn't make me an addict or have evil ways, just a person struggling with bp symptoms.
I'm glad you told your dad that , sounds like a healthy way. Hope it will get thru to him.

Well at this place there is no office manager. People just make their own rules. However I came in on time every single day and was the last to leave. But a girl named Lina was our last manager but quit from the stress (surprise?) but does payroll now and I guess occasionally makes big decisions. So while the nurse was yelling at me for being so moody and complaining about my pay (I had two paychecks come back wrong!) she was trying to call Lina to see what was going to happen to me. Lina never answered and I was beyond tears at that point so I got my things and left. But I texted Lina and said "look I get mood swings because I'm bipolar and the stress of this job and the women treating me like crap don't help. But I didn't know I could be fired for being bipolar?" She never texted back. However I think they purposely accused me of stupid things for reason to fire me to cover their ***. Things that were not true. Their were many things wrong about this job. 10-11 hr shifts with no lunch. No overtime being accounted for on my check ect. Like they stopped clocking me at 40 hrs and if I went over, too bad. I said something to her a few weeks before and she never fixed it. I think I'm going to do a little homework myself tonight now!
Detoxing at home from all psych meds at the moment because of self admitted abuse. Doctors orders and then new cocktail. Just being honest.
I don't get msgs unless the other person using tapatalk app!
