A member asked:
Can you please tell me why it'sthat mentally ill people cannot disclose their disability to supervisors at work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They can: They often do not for the same risks that exist in the community. Stigma, harsh judgments, discrimination takes place and often subtly so many workers with mh issues find themselves out of good jobs without really knowing how it happened. So, persons can disclose their disability, but often choose not to.
