Anxiety

...ba href=/anxiety/a/b disorder.

The ba href=/anxiety/a/b is mostly due to the work environment, and started five years ago when management started to make unreasonable requests such as spying on my fellow employees.

My short-term disability plan has denied my claim due to a lack of medical information but I will be seeing my doctor shortly.

In the meantime, as I may be off another six weeks, I would like to know how long an employer has to hold my job open.

I have been looking all over the Internet, but keep going in circles.

- Worried Sick Dear Worried, Cyberspace may be rich in free information, but there's no clarity or judgment there.

And when you don't feel too well and you're facing a tangle of legalese, superstition and fear - the landscape where work and mental health intersect - a little clarity is just what you need.

But reassurance on the Web?

You're looking for love in all the wrong places.

That's why we need experts.

My advice is to consult three in particular: a human resources expert at the bank who knows its disability program like the back of her hand, your doctor and a labour lawyer.

First, find out from your contact at the bank exactly what information the insurer requires from the medical professional.

Then take that information straight to your doctor and give him or her your written permission to communicate with the insurer.

Doctors are rightly concerned about privacy issues and can be cagey about what they reveal.

The resulting holes in your dossier may be why you were first...
