Hi @kimmyg51 - & welcome to the community. Would it be possible to reduce your hours? The other thing you could look into is 'Reasonable adjustments.' Scope has some info about that here:

Hope this may help.

Hello @kimmyg51

Welcome to the community, sorry to hear you're finding work tricky since your diagnosis. Have you discussed reasonable adjustments with your employer?

Hi and welcome

I would ask to be referred to occupational health for a workplace assessment in the first instance

They can then recommend any reasonable adjustments or where you should go from there

Let us know if you have any further questions
