I submitted a reasonable accommodation request on 10/18/22 asking that my job give me 12 hours off of work, specifically during the hours of 7pm to 7am, due to the fact that I must wake up at 6am to get my children ready for school.

My daughters has myoclonic juvenil epilepsy, last year she had a total of 3 seizures , on February will be the junior trip to bush gardens, she should go?

Does anyone else have an up & down type of depression? One day you’re good, another day you’re doing well but something small makes you emotional & cry all of the sudden, another day you're good but something annoying happens & you get angry fast, another day and you’re sitting with your kitty (or other pet) on your lap at 8pm & you just hold them, thanking them & saying you love them, because they’ve saved your life... going in an up & down wobbly circle.

Does anyone know if 200mg 2x day is a high dose? I mean I could ask my neurologist. Just curious.
