That's what I thought you meant, but wasn't 100% sure. I'm glad buddha1too asked. In response, I did get various accommodations at my last job, for my bipolar disorder. Actually, my husband was the one that initially asked for them for me. The initial ones included having an office space with a window and having the space out of the main walking drag. They were also flexible about me adjusting my arrival/departure times, as long as I got the full day's hours in. Later down the line, I was allowed to work from home for two or three of the days of the five day work week. That was about 10 years ago, when working from home like that was not that common. Also, there were a couple tasks of my job that I needed to give up, so they transferred them to a subordinate. Sadly, my illness continued to worsen again, so I had to go out on permanent disability from that job. I was eventually terminated, but only after three and a half years of being in and out of work because of bipolar disorder.

What is something someone said or did that was especially helpful in terms of understanding of your bipolar disorder? Could be anyone, but I'm mostly thinking of people other than your psychiatrist or therapist.
