I know this woman that works at a top name grocery store, and the store knows that she has minic depressive, which is what you have, she takes her medications and now for over 20 years she has worked there, gotten married, and her daughter is almost grown up. It is against the law to hold that fact that a mental illness person from holding a good paying job. She takes her meds and has not been any problem for them, and she is not the only one that i know that have keapt her job forever, and not had any relapse, the thing here is you need to be on the right medication, and if you are then that will keep you stable for the rest of your life, if you go off of it, you will either become like god, or as low as the lowest thing on earth is, now it is up to you to keep taking your medications, so that does not happen.

I am also bi-polar and as long as I stay on my meds and take them the way they are prescribed I can go through the motions of a normal life when it calls for it. I know that this is difficult to do, but I am living proof that if you want to keep this job you will learn to do what is expected from you instead of what the disorder is inflicting you with ; at least for the time that you are at work.
