Went on medical leave and now the project is saying they can't support my accommodations. I feel like they're just using this to get rid of me and at a time when it seems like there are so few roles at my level right now.

I want to believe the best but it just feels like I'm getting punished for being disabled and asking for help. Going from being an over achiever to chronically ill has already been a nasty shift and now this. UGH

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)
