I have a pre employment medical screening at Shell. I mentioned on the form that I suffer from depression and am taking SSRI for it. Do you think this could be a valid reason to fail the screening?

That would be a discrimination based on medical condition - if they fail you, go get them for $$$$ which is going to be multiples of what you would have earned for a few years anyway.

How are pre employment medical screenings even legal, unless you’re applying to be a pilot?

Something similar happened to me. My test came back failed and the background check company asked me for proof that I’d been prescribed the meds. I took a picture of the bottle and provided my doctors number. Once verified, they changed the status from failed to pass - I ended up getting the gig!

The urine test came back negative so their protocol is to fail until proven.

Companies can’t fail you for taking prescription drugs

Happy Friday. Just a reminder of a few things:

- ADHD is a disability, but it’s not the end of the world
- give yourself a break. Your brain needs it more than you realize
- medication is not a cure-all treatment. Medication + diet + exercise + self-organization is the key.
- ADHD causes us to feel emotions stronger than the average person.
- failure is inevitable, but so is success. Act accordingly, and be kind and fair to yourself
- life is hard, but that’s… wait, what was I saying? 😂😎❤️

My mat leave is ending, and he’s now sick with COVID. He’s quarantining at my in-laws while I return to work and take care of baby. I’m so frustrated… (cont.)
