Hi it's so not good when you feel discriminated like that in a workplace situation. It's such a pity that more people are not compassionate enough to understand how a comment would make someone like that feel, Sorry that this happened to you. Take care Piglit

Thank you for sharing. My employer has targetted me for over a decade but other's with disabilities are not targetted at all. Some people fall asleep at their desk and nothing but when I stand up for my rights as a human being, employee and hard worker I become the victim of retaliation...
It's horrible especially since I work in the mental health field..

Some people are so miserable themselves that they project their feelings onto anyone that stands up for equality.
You are so right...no compassionate, no heart, no empathy, no respect etc...

Unforunately many doctors look at a persons list of medications and assume that whatever u r being referred to them for is "in your head" because they judge the person ss being a "hypochondriac" how unfortunate. It has happened to me and it it is so degrading

It's so sad that people have to put up with this some on a daily basis because they feel that they have no alternative

I can relate to this a wrong diagnosis was placed on me, of bi-polar , unfortunaltey this is on my hospital records and at times you can know that people are looking and speaking to you differently It does make your feel degraded.But always remember the special person that you are and try not to take notice of their ignorance

Hi rox good post I enjoy it hugs jodi

me2 I like her discussions

Kudos to you for having fun with your sister; that will get her mind off the illness for awhile. I've been diagnosed with a terrible (to me) illness and my sister won't talk to me at all. In a wierd sort of way, I'd say how lucky you both are!
