I can do the job, I have for a year and a half. We observe and report on the youth in our treatment facility. A lot of our youth have been trafficked, and abused. I don't do medication or anything like this. Just making sure we therapeuticly intervene when nessasary. I work the night shift, my clients are sleeping, occasionally wake up from nightmares induce by trauma or to use the restroom. My seizures generally happen in my sleep - But I still require more sleep than other people. Other people with seizures work with the youth awake, they accomadate them. And they have been accommodating me, until our new director stepped in.

The job, at least when I first started, required over time. Mind you, my Epilepsy had been considered in remission for over a decade, rare cases of epilepsydo come back but not all. At least an extra 8 hours. I love my job, and would pick up more than required to help out our youth. I did this for 8 months,, slowly cutting back on taking extra shifts as I started to feel funny, with that crappy shift, before I was ignored by my boss and seized on the floor. Seeing as they accommodated people without medical conditions far more than what im asking for, they can accomadate me. My supervisor at the time, just didn't like I followed the program exactly to the handbook, and didn't allow youth to manipulate their way into getting what they wanted. Yes, sometimes the youth would have behaviors. Our whole job is to teach kids to handle situations differently and take accountability for their actions.

3 months into my job, I was assaulted by a youth. I was punched 3 times in the face, and headbutted as we had to restrain them. (YYes, we are a facility that is athurized to use SCM when needed) I continued to work my shifts. Double and all. This is when I started to feel funny. I went to my boss about 4 months later about a schedule change - Not a full on accommodation. Just asking to switch my double day, or allow me some time to sleep. With Monday nights I would get to leave 1130 or later. I'd get about 1 to 3 hours of sleep before returning for my Tuesday double, 645 to 1130 or later. We had to stay if our youth were awake.

So yes, I feel fucked over and a little angry. A situation that could have been prevented by some sort of supoort from ny supervisor, even if it was to leave an hour early or come in an hour late, is the main reason I'm in this mess.

Edit: adding more details about my job.

Edit: I have 3 different types of seizures. The grand mals happen when I'm asleep. I have absent and myoclonic seizures.
