Disclosing MH in the workplace????

Disclosing MH in the workplace????

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to reach out and hear about experiences good or bad, as it could go either way, from experience also, about disclosing your MH in the workplace?

I've read and seen people on the net and youtube disclosing their MH issues in the workplace and read some stories on here too, that some places accomodate for MH concerns, while some may not... I've had the answer forced out of me also back in 2016 where I thought the truth would help, not the case...

Has anyone on here, reading this got to that next step - If so, does it help or is it better keeping it under wraps...

We settled out of court but it was a horrible process I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
