What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
I was baker acted last week because of mental health, ptsd trigger and Im autistic. I get bullied by some of the staff and it causes me to decline. I provided a drs note from the health facility where I received treatment for three days. Is it illegal to lose my job as the company where I worked said they were inexcusable absences even though they have the Drs note. Plus there's an investigation of the employee who bullied me going on too.Thank you. I suppose I pissed them off for bringing the bullying to thier attention even though it was partial reasoning for my hospitalization.

I'm going to the EEOC too

But I wanted to get input as I wasn't the only disabled person who was treated horribly by some of the coworkers. A deaf employee gets demeaned all the time. I'd appreciate honest input and your serious attention to this matter.

Addendum

I also will have a heafty bill from the hospital due to the reaction of the bullying. However, neurotypical people are swift in covering themselves so they don't get caught.

Cant get SSD because I understand the world just like you do and my brain interprets sounds, sights, tones of voices, everything the same way you all do so this isn't a trolling post despite your intentions of wanting it to be. Thanks

Did you let your employer know that you were going to be out sick? Or was this a no call/no show? And have you been fired? Or do you just fear you may be?

The things you list aren't a bar to receiving SSD

Oh I didn't show up on Tuesday so they called my mom when the temporary agency couldn't find me. I didn't have the number of either employer. I was pretty sick.
