@attorneyryan: If work has you stressed out, you might be tempted to ask for “stress leave.” As a workers rights lawyer who’s sees a LOT of wrongful termination cases, this is a mistake! Stress *by itself* is not legally considered a “disability” or “serious health condition.” That matters because your leave request will NOT be protected if it is not taken for one of these reasons. Protected leave means it’s illegal to fire you for doing it. You get these protections when you work for a covered employer and you take FMLA for a serious health condition, OR When you take leave or leave as forms accommodation for your disability If your stress causes or is related to a disability or serious health condition, get some documentation and use the correct form of leave to protect your job!

I suffer from anxiety and I have adhd, I am medicated and I love my job, but my supervisor constant micromanaging and questioning of everything I do and accusing me, is causing me so much stress.

doctors appointment, "medical condition" you don't need to disclose medical details, nor can they can ask... mental health days ask doctor to write, "medical condition" sign date for day/s. absent....

I have had two doctors write me off work for 12 weeks FMLA and short-term disability and this third-party case manager will not approve it. I’m on week seven with no pay..
