Great guide, ive been taking notes the whole time

[@iveneverseenahealthyvegan.9885]

I am 52 and have recently been diagnosed with ADHD.
I work for the local council and have done for 30 years.
I have been Targeted Victimized and Bullied for many years, by my manager and collegues this is not due to my work or ability.
I have a long list of instances,
I brought out a grievance recently this was investigated they did not find anything. I am now been investigated for making a complaint saying I am Vexatious.
I feel worse than before, I have now extra stress added.
I don't know if I should take legal action...?
Ps. I am the most friendly helpful humourous member of staff and welcome everyone.
Please offer advice..

Also look up videos and other sources on disability discrimination and the Equality law, also apply to Access to Work and explain you're struggling at work to the point of losing your job, thry might rush your case. Once they accept your request for reasonable adjustments in place, you can look up a neurodiversity work coach that can advocate for you in the workplace. My coach has ADHD too, and she's an angel. So far she had supported me for about a week pro bono, as my funding didn't come thru yet. Best of luck ❤

Interesting

The word ‘hidden’ is a bit unfair. Many employees might struggle without knowing their condition amounts to a disability
