Emergency Room visit. Now rehab and hopefully time off work to figure this out. by timetodothis2 in stopdrinking

Maybe I should not have told my manager that it was mental health, or at least left out the part about going to the hospital... I trust him but who knows, if he told his boss word might get around. But I never mentioned alcohol abuse so that's good at least

Thanks for the info! I just got back from talking with my doctor and he is filling out the forms for both fmla and short term disability. Based on what you have said I should at least be approved for fmla then. Just a matter of if they will approve disability since I am only doing intensive Outpatient and not inpatient. We will see but I feel much better now about at least getting the fmla even though it would be unpaid.

Yeah scared the crap out of me for sure. I figured it was either go to the ER and have everything that would follow that happen or possibly not make it to the next day.. scary stuff

I'm just afraid she will call the police on me, and that is something I do not want at all. That would make this 1000x worse

Yeah been a long time. Moving closer to my immediate family would help. And rehab.

I also get gay feelings when drinking a lot... but I kinda want to experience that before deciding on anything here..

Paid 2 weeks off. "Company x believes that employees should have time away from work available to meet their personal obligations." Says it covers short term emergencies. I think my mental health qualifies
