Terminated after 2 years with a hospital system following return from approved medical leave (Oct 2025–Jan 2026). My therapist submitted a request for reasonable accommodations related to ADHD and C-PTSD. Instead, I was directed to apply for other roles; after 20+ applications with no offers, I was terminated. HR later acknowledged they did not have my request on file. EEOC complaint filed. Seeking insight from others with similar experiences.

I’m so sorry to hear this happened to you. Unfortunately I think there is still a lot of discrimination related to mental health. I would make sure to have everything documented, including a timeline of events. Good luck and I hope you find a more supportive work environment.

Wow, HR also made the same false claim in my complaint. Hopefully it's a common strategy that the agency will see through
