If your boss or someone else of authority asked you why your acting really different and not delivering up to standards what could you say to make things better and without outing yourself as bipolar/mentally ill?

I would just say I'm sorry I'm going through a lot lately and stressed out. I'm going to try harder to refocus on work........i mean something along those lines. That's about as much as most bosses want to hear anyway

Yes, it's usually best not to disclose a bipolar diagnosis at work. I got burned badly twice and I would never do it again if I were ever to go back to work. Using a vague, "I've been dealing with some personal issues" type of statement is all that's needed in the vast majority of cases; it's really none of your employer's business anyway.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
