How should I tell people at work that I have bipolar disorder?

If you choose to disclose your bipolar disorder at work, you may find it helpful to write a script so that you don't forget anything important and your nervousness doesn't get in the way of saying what you want to say exactly as you want to say it. Also know what accommodations you're seeking before you start these very important conversations. You might ask for a flexible schedule or the opportunity to work from home to accommodate appointments or medication side effects.

You might also discuss work assignments that may trigger your symptoms and see if you can be assigned other tasks. If you're having a particularly difficult time with your symptoms, consider asking for a part-time schedule to reduce the stress of having many commitments. You may already have experienced symptoms on the job and find it best to explain your behavior so that your performance can be placed in context.

If you plan to tell your boss, it's a good idea to start with your human resources department, which may help you develop a strategy for breaking the news to your boss. Telling your employer is a big decision to make only after weighing all the pros and cons. Consult with your support group (if you attend one) about their experiences and any tips they may have for you.

Lastly, if you can afford it, consider consulting a lawyer to gain clarity about your rights and develop a strategy for disclosing this important information to your employer.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
