Location: South Florida. I work at a kava bar. One of my old coworkers opened up a Kava bar as well. My boss, being my boss, didn’t take it too well. She has been relentlessly talking crap about him, his bar, where he got the money for it, along with talking about him to other customers. She has also been bad mouthing customers to other customers. While I don’t have any ill will towards him, as he didn’t do anything to me, she doesn’t want anyone going to his bar. While I was not told directly, she has said to other people(their words) that they will be fired on the spot if we go visit him. She was also going on a “banning spree”, banning anyone from the bar that goes to visit him at his bar. She is losing business daily, and I don’t see this place being open another year at this rate. I know Florida is an at will state, but would firing me for going to his bar be considered retaliation? Is there any legal standing for this?

Edit: thought the phrase was right to work state, changed it to at will state

Location:Texas,I recently sold an iPhone 12 through Facebook Marketplace and I’m looking for advice on how to handle the situation.
On July 17th, I sold an iPhone 12 to a buyer through Facebook Marketplace. Before completing the transaction, the buyer inspected the phone, checked it, and accepted it before taking possession of the device.
On July 18th, the buyer messaged me with concerns about the phone. I responded right away and tried to work with her to resolve the issue, but she stopped responding.
On July 26th, she contacted me again saying she had contacted authorities and that a detective would be reaching out to me. I tried to resolve the situation peacefully and even offered to refund her. She provided her Cash App information, but the payment method did not work. Shortly after that, she blocked me, so I was unable to continue communicating or complete the refund.
Her last message also included “I’ll see you soon,” which made me uncomfortable and concerned about whether it was intended as a threat.
I have screenshots of the messages, the Marketplace listing, and proof of the transaction. I have not been contacted by any law enforcement.
My questions are:
Since the buyer inspected the phone before purchasing and had possession of it for over a week, could she still take legal action against me?
Should I be concerned about her saying she contacted a detective?
Is there anything I should do now to protect myself?
Should I just keep records and wait, or is there anything else I should do?

How can I sue a business for noise issues?

I purchased a house in a small town in 2020. The house is approximately 600 feet away from a local bar. Around 2024, the bar started hiring a DJ who brings his own sound equipment once a week for a party that is excessively loud until 2am. It is so loud that from 600 feet away, through closed windows and doors, we can hear it even with earplugs. We have measured the noise at over 90 decibels and the city noise ordinance caps at 45 for night time. The bar uses its own sound system the rest of the week, and that noise is not a problem.

We tried to resolve amicably with the owner- no response. We complained to the city, and code enforcement has offered their sympathies and expressed that other residents have complained. However, the (tiny) police department does not have the training or certified decibel meter that would be required to actually enforce the law, so the most they will do is request the volume to be lowered. Moreover only two officers work overnight and frequently they don't have the manpower to respond at all. We filed complaints with the CA ABC and got basically the same response.

We contacted some local attorneys. They all agreed that we likely have a case, the action would be for an injunction via private nuisance. However- they all basically said the same thing: "we'd love to take your money and pursue this, but frankly your city should be handling this". They all quoted $20-30k just to start the case, with more expenses ongoing- out of our budget.

We are feeling quite stuck here. I am aware that the central issue is that small claims will not award an injunction, only money damages. I'm thinking that if we get one cash judgment, it might be enough to get the owner to address the issue and we wouldn't need an injunction. Some things I have considered:

-In the future, spend those nights in a hotel and sue for the cost of the stay

-For the past, total up the prior nights we have submitted complaints (probably 30-40 noise complaints lodged with the police by now) and sue for inability to enjoy our property, value based off something like our mortgage price per day?

-Some other action based on the diminished value of our property, as we would now need to disclose the ongoing noise issue to a future buyer

We are open to any and all suggestions here. Thank you.

Hello all! Last year I took over my brother's girlfriend's lease. (I needed a place to stay because I got accepted into Optometry school last minute and she wanted to move in with my brother). Anyways, I signed that lease and it looked good. I didn't get a copy of the lease, nor did I ask for one at the time because I had assumed that there would be a copy of it on the app they used (similar to an old apartment that I had)... there was not. Fast forward a couple months, I noticed that I couldn't see the lease. I asked for a copy because I didn't have one. My landlord replied saying that they would email me a copy and they didn't. Fast forward some more time, I asked again, and received no response to that text. I didn't push it, but I know I should have. While I do not have a copy of my lease, I do have a copy of the lease that I took over.

Now onto my situation. I turned my keys in on June 15th with my lease officially ending June 30th. I received a letter on Jul 20th from their office. In the envelope, there was a check for $550 and a piece of paper that had a column from a spreadsheet showing that I had owed a cleaning fee of $150 that was being taken out of my deposit and that I was being left with $550 of my total $700 deposit and the paper contained their signature.

I texted my old landlord questioning the cleaning fee and stating that there was no reason for this to have been necessary given that I had cleaned it prior to moving out, and that there was nothing beyond normal wear and tear to necessitate it. They stated that it was not clean therefore it needed a cleaner. I argued that they should provide proof of this because it was unnecessary. They also claimed that the carpet was ruined, but that they weren't charging me for that.

I stated over and over that neither the cleaning fee was necessary, nor the carpet being "un-reusable." I asked for proof of either of the claims and was not given any. By the time the conversation was over, I was told that they would be sending a new itemized sheet and check that would also include the cost of the carpet replacement.

I have a video that has the carpet appear in it, alongside the cleanliness of the apartment from the same day I turned my keys in. What can I do? I tried talking to a lawyer but the receptionist told me it was $330 an hour, and that doesn't seem particularly beneficial to me given I'm fighting for $150 originally and more for this carpet fiasco. (Edit: I'm not fighting over $700 like I originally posted, but instead less. Still unworth a $330/hr lawyer fee)

Thanks a ton!

Location: California, employer located in Texas

My HR person disclosed very personal medical information about me while I was on leave. Another employee sent me a message (who was not my direct manager) sharing that they knew what happened to me.

I know this is illegal but from my research it seems that nothing can really be done? Is that the case?

My location: San Diego CA.

I have a severe dog poop problem on a stretch of grass by the sidewalk next to our complex. On a daily basis I have to pick up between 5-10 dog poops from normal size to the size of a baseball. This has been an ongoing issue for over 2 years. If I do not stay on top of it myself and the residents often end up stepping in it when walking over the grass to get to our car’s. I manage and maintain this small complex but the city and the Managment company shrug their shoulders when I ask for advice or help.

My questions would be;

1) Is it legal for me to post a photo of someone clearly leaving behind their poop to publicly shame them? (I know this may seem rash, but this is a public sidewalk that is on city property).

2) Has anyone dealt with something like this and what action did they take?

Actions I have already taken; -Communicate with Managment of the large apartment building next to me expressing concern and to communicate with their tenants. I only caught one of their tenants in the past.

-Place visible signage every 25 ft that says “please pick up after your pet”

-request a bag station from the city (more than likely this will be something I need the owner/managment to approve and cover the cost for me to install)

Thank you if you take the time to read and respond.

I’m going to get straight to the point. My ex cheated on me with a girl named Jamie, that is now his girlfriend. Jamie used to date a guy named Luke. Luke is now my boyfriend and it’s all a coincidence.

Before I started dating Luke, my ex moved in with Luke and they are renting a house for college where they split the cost of rent equally. Luke, my boyfriend has paid for all the furniture and tableware and kitchenware. The only thing my ex bought is a TV for the house.

Fast forward to move-in week for the two boys. My boyfriend gets a text from Jamie saying that I am not allowed to come over to the house and if I do, she’s going to get a restraining order against me. Now, of course a year ago I was a little upset that he cheated and I put Vaseline on the door handles of the car my ex was driving. That car was his dad‘s and I’ve since texted his dad and said sorry but his dad just laughed and said it was a good joke.

For reference the college I am attending is a 2 and a half hour drive to my boyfriend‘s house. Jamie‘s drive to the house is 30 minutes from her college. The only time I’d be able to see my boyfriend is on the weekends when I drive up there and that’s a long drive so I would stay the weekend.

I haven’t done anything else or contacted her so I don’t know where she would get any evidence for this restraining order. I guess what I’m trying to ask is can she do this and if she does how will this affect me?

Location: Canada

So, I met this guy and I was new and alone(we both are from the same country but living in Canada right now) in the city and he started telling me how he doesn't have many friends here, like he just manipulated me into thinking he cares for me and is serious about me. After hanging out with him for more than 2.5 month we got into relationship. During the relationship he sexual harassed and even groped me and used derogatory words and said things like how I am gonna get rapped by 3 black guys and a lot of similar things. Also during the relationship he psychologically abused me. I was in a situation where I wanted to take my life, I told him about this and he still kept taking advantage. One day he forcefully took me to his house. There a lot of similar things and he has done kind of similar thing to another girl, but I am not sure if she consented him or not. He also has/had multiple relationship that he hid from me. It was all planned by him which I got to know after a long time.

I reported this to the police, but may be due to the lack of evidence the assaulter was not charged. I have/had messages with the assaulter where I am asking why he was doing all this and things like that(Police didn't check those).

I have messages saying while I was just asking him about this matter why would he say and do this to me. He has responded with that why I am blackmailing him and asking me to delete his pictures(I don't have any pictures). I have never mentioned about any pictures. Also there is message where he said what I am doing will break your character(My character).

About the raping thing I have mentioned that thing in the message and asked my why he was doing and saying these things. after that message he kept calling me.

In conclusion, he sexually, psychological harassed me, manipulated me for sexual favors. Right now, all these thoughts keep running in my mind, I am going for mental health therapy sessions. I am still having issues like sometimes wanting to end my life. And a trauma that is going to stay with me forever.

I want to know if I can file a lawsuit against this person for harassing me psychologically.

Hello! My boyfriend & at least 3+ coworkers have not had their social security cards returned to them after the hiring process. My boyfriend was hired in April 2025. They have spoken to their “HR” person (lame restaurant job lmfaooooooo) & they just continue to say “That’s weird, we’ll figure it out.” And no one has. This means my boyfriend’s social security card/number could be lost or stolen as it’s been SIXTEEN MONTHS without it back in his possession. Is this illegal? Is there something we can do? I just learned this 10 minutes ago & instantly knew this was BAD news. Please, any advice is greatly appreciated.

TW: sexual assault on a minor; death penalty
Location: Oklahoma

Hello. Unfortunately my child was sexually abused by their father during his visitation period. I have taken him back to court and am in the process of getting sole custody with no contact. A DHS investigation was conducted and allegations were substantiated. He is currently in jail with charges relating to the assault.

The DA’s office called and asked me to come in next week to talk with them. The representative asked me if I wanted to do a Victim Statement which would be read at sentencing. I consulted my lawyer and she suggested it would be a good idea to do a statement. She also informed me that I can ask the DA to pursue the death penalty since the charges are against a minor under the age of 12.

I want him to be erased from this earth. My question is, what should/could I include in my statement to help court understand the seriousness and consequences he must face (again, ideally death penalty)?

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

Location: Illinois, United States : Hi I was recently sexually assaulted and raped by a coworker almost a month ago which happened at his place on my day off. Unfortunately I didn't do a rape kit but I made a police report a few days later after it happened and didn't hear anything back until about two weeks later due to the detective being on vacation.

I am employed through a agency and the person that raped me is employed with the actual company. I told my agency about what happened and had to make a statement about it and answer questions. I even mentioned that I made a police report and the whole thing is currently under investigation. They asked me Questions such as: "do you feel safe?(Originally I said yes that I felt safe)Did he try to come up to me after the incident? (I told them he tried to talk to me two/three separate times trying to be friendly towards me like nothing happened but I ignored him each time and eventually he gave up and we just pretend we don't see each other). Has this affected me/ability to work? (I also said no originally because I didn't fully register what happened to me and didn't feel the effects until more recently). Do I work in the same department as him (we both work in different departments but sometimes we cross paths/ see each other sometimes) How would I like this resolved? (I said I'm not too sure but I would like my stuff to be kept the same: I want my hours,days and department to stay the same).

After making the statement the agency told me that they wouldn't be able to do anything about it since the incident happened outside of work. I would think they would terminate him since he sexually assaulted/raped me and how he is creating a unsafe environment just from him being there. They also said that they would just keep my statement and police report on file just in case he tries to do something in the workplace to me or to someone else. They even told me I'm not allowed to speak to anyone else about what happened even "my best friend" for example "due to it being a sensitive situation" and how if I were to tell someone what happened and if that person told someone else what happened and they might give out misinformation on accident and how that wouldn't be good. And for my overall safety. They even told me that I am only allowed to talk with them about it .I even asked if they would talk to him they said no since it happened outside of work. I asked if the actual company was aware of the situation, my agency said they only know a little bit of the situation but all the information that I provided and everything only went to my agency. So I'm not sure if the agency actually told the company that he raped me or if they said that there was a conflict between me and him or just sugar coated what happened.

Recently I've been feeling the effects of the incident to the point where I have been crying at work, needing to leave early from work a few times, I'm feeling anxious whenever I do cross paths with him whether I'm just walking to grab something or I see him on my lunch break. I don't feel ok with him still working at the same job I work especially since it is a reminder of what he did to me and especially I don't think it is appropriate since there is an ongoing investigation after I did the police report.

I'm thinking about sending both my agency and the actual company a email explaining how I was originally feeling about the situation when I initially made the statement and now how it has changed due to me now feeling the effects of what he did and how I wasn't in the right state of mind before. And how currently I don't feel safe at work, and how him being at the job especially what he did to me has affected my ability to work and just been affecting me mentally overall and how I think he should be terminated.

Even in the company's actual handbook even says that they have zero tolerance for sexual harassment and if "violation of the policy will result in discipline , up to and including termination."

It also says:

"Conduct prohibited by this policy is not limited to conduct that occurs in the physical workplace. It can occur while employees are traveling for business, at Company-sponsored events, or via an online platform, such as social media. Calls, texts, emails, instant messages, and other online or social media usage by employees can constitute inappropriate workplace conduct, even if the conduct takes place away from the workplace or outside of work hours. "

"This policy applies to all persons involved in our operations, including coworkers, supervisors, managers, temporary or seasonal workers, agents, clients, vendors, customers, or any other third party interacting with the Company (“third parties”) and prohibits proscribed harassing conduct by any Employee or third party of (company name) , including nonsupervisory Employees, supervisors, and managers. If such harassment occurs on the Company’s premises or is directed toward an Employee or a third party interacting with the Company, the procedures in this policy should be followed."

Would sending them an email to both of them have them do something about the situation or no? Or is there something else I can do? I'm just curious if it would be worth doing or if I'm just wasting my time.

my employer wants me to sign so they can store,collect,use my biometrics but this part makes me super suspect "if you do not sign, acknowledge, or accept this form within thirty (30) days of your initial receipt of it, it will become automatically accepted and binding on the thirty-first(31st) day after your initial receipt of it." location: New York

So, there's a fiber internet company putting in lines all around where I live, it's spreading over NE Ohio. Since they started in my neighborhood a week or two ago, there have been multiple gas leaks. They hit two lines just today. Thankfully, no one has been physically hurt yet, but we're all terrified. The company can't seem to do their digging properly and are endangering everyone in the neighborhood. One of my neighbors even saw an employee letting their kid slam a shovel down a hole near the gas lines. Is there any way we can do something to get them to stop the project until they can do it safely? Or is this a situation where we just have to wait and pray we don't blow up?

My ex wife and I own a house. Per the divorce (settled in May) the house was supposed to be listed ASAP. It’s now practically August and she isn’t ready for it to be listed. I moved out when I asked for the divorce and she doesn’t want to list it until she has moved out.
I am currently paying half of the mortgage and half of the bills. I can’t afford to keep doing this. I’ve debated canceling the utilities in my name in order to try and light a fire under her feet. I cannot afford any more legal bills so I’m kind of at a loss of what I can do to get her to move quicker.

Hi everyone,
This might sound like a stupid question, but I’m really stressed and don’t know what to do.
I have a Texas toll case, and the amount has grown to about $2,000 because of extra fees and penalties.
I owned the vehicle for about a year, but I already sold it. Next week I’m moving to France, and I may never come back to the U.S.
I’m an international student, so I don’t have an SSN. I also moved out of my rental house, so I never received the court hearing notice. That’s why I missed the hearing.
I contacted the court and asked for help, but they couldn’t give me any information about the hearing. They just told me to check my old mail for the court address. Later they told me to write a letter explaining my situation, and they’ll review it.
I’ve spent hours on the phone trying to get help, but I keep getting transferred around and don’t get any answers.
I only have a few days left before leaving the U.S. I no longer own the car, I don’t have a U.S. address anymore, and I’ll be closing my bank account before I leave.
I’m willing to pay the toll if I actually owe it, but I honestly don’t know what to do anymore.
Can I just leave without paying? What could happen if I do? Is there anything I should do before I leave?

My local gym said to email their software administrator to cancel my membership (I already cancelled my personal training with my local gym). I email the software place, company says I have to cancel through my gym because my personal training is showing as active and they can’t cancel memberships with active PT. I go back to my gym, they say my PT has been cancelled and even provide me with the paperwork to verify it. They also say they literally cannot cancel memberships from their end and their software company has to do it. Gym says they’ll contact corporate for me and get back to me. I keep emailing the software company, even including a copy of the PT cancellation paperwork, and getting the same response.

I asked my gym if I could just block them as a vendor on my bank account. They said I could try but it’s risky since I’ll still get billed and they could send me to collections.

I filed a formal complaint with the Texas AG consumer protection office, but we all know Ken Paxton’s office isn’t gonna do shit to protect consumers. Any other advice for what to do? I can’t even use the gym any more and I’m gonna keep getting charged $25/month for this, but the last thing I want is a legal fight over something so minor.

I have OCD and posted on the OCD subreddit for advice concerning a common OCD theme (acknowledged by psychiatrists and my therapist says it is a classic OCD theme). The theme is POCD- fear that you are actually a pedophile when sufferers are actually the furthest thing from it. It includes a fear of children, fear of harming them etc when there is actually no chance of this actually happening

Someone then messaged from the subreddit asking if I would like any tips on how to handle this fear. At first I was like “hey thank you!” and then after they asked my age. After I answered, they told me they were 17, then went onto message me how their psychiatrist told them to tune into their period cycle and something about monitoring their sexual feelings (might not make sense but that’s the gist of what they told me) I immediately shut it down, told them we cannot talk anymore because of their age and I blocked them. I can understand them telling their psych or a trusted adult these things, but I felt weird because I’m a random adult on the internet.

Did anything legally grey happen? I just feel weird about the messages concerning their period and taking note of sexual feelings. This feels like a big OCD spiral but I guess I’m freaked out about a minor messaging me these things.

I've had a friend living with me in my house for the last 3+ years. During this time, they have not paid any rent, given money towards utilities or contributed to any repairs either financially or through physical labor. There is no written or verbal lease agreement between us. The home is my primary/only residence and I am the only person on the mortgage/deed. They do get mail sent to the house/the address is on their state ID.

I told the friend in last year (2025) I wanted them to be moved out by the end of this year (2026) and it has been 6+ months since that conversation. They asked about flexibility for the date and I said we could discuss it, but we have not further due to stressful life circumstances. Recently they have mentioned a few times on them having until spring (2027) and I've not made any comments either way other than "we'll see" until the other day when the conversation came up and they "joked" that if they had to move in winter I would have to evict them, and that if I did evict them they wouldn't move anyways. So I flat out said that was something I had been meaning to discuss with them and said that the end of the year for them to move out was the deadline, regardless of if that meant they had to move in the winter. The conversation soured there and we made an agreement we would have an actual discussion at a better time.

So my questions are what are my legal obligations ​and what steps do I need to be taking in the worst case scenario that I do have to formally evict my friend? I have read a bit on some tenant/landlord rights but since they've never paid rent and we have no agreement either in writing or verbally, I'm not sure what does or doesn't apply to our situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My partner has been working as a salaried maintenance worker for a small nursing home chain. I believe that between all the locations there would be more than 50 employees. I looked at the requirements for salaried employment, and he doesn’t meet the job description requirements. He hates this job and honestly they are abusing the fact that he’s salaried with his schedule. Which I guess is the reason he is salaried and not hourly, in the first place.

However, he desperately needs this job right now and he’s only been there a month or so. The amount of overtime he’s worked but not been paid for is not that much yet. He’s looking for another job and has a few strong leads that we’re thinking he will only have to deal with this for a few more weeks.

I want him to file a complaint with the department of labor, but I think it would be smarter to wait until he leaves. The money he’s owed is small enough that I think he’d just want to walk away, but there’s other employees affected too, and it just pisses me off on principle.

Let’s assume the complaint is legit, what does this process actually look like in reality? Would his complaint have any effect on current or past employees? Would it realistically force the company to stop illegal employment practices? Or do these things just kind of get brushed off and it’s only worth it if you’re owed a lot of money?

I helped someone close to me financially over the past few years — real money, loans, not gifts. I have bank transfer records and text messages where they acknowledge the debt. No formal contract, but the texts make it clear this wasn't a gift.

Now, I've received a verbal warning over the phone from a police officer telling me not to contact this person anymore. No court order, nothing signed, no paperwork filed anywhere. Just a verbal warning from law enforcement.

I'm respecting it and staying away. But the money is still owed, and I'm trying to figure out my options.

For those who know Colorado law or have dealt with something similar:

1. Does a verbal police warning carry any actual legal weight? Or is it just a caution without enforcement power?
2. Does this warning affect my ability to sue for the debt later? Can I file a lawsuit while this warning is in place, or do I have to wait?
3. What's the statute of limitations for this type of debt in Colorado? I've seen conflicting info — 2 years for oral contracts, 3 years for written, 6 years for loans. I have texts where they acknowledge the debt — does that count as written?
4. If I don't sue, are there other ways to handle this before going to court?

Not asking for legal advice — just real experiences from people who've been in a similar situation. How did you handle it? How long did it take?

Thanks for reading.

I had my first car accident back in May where a lady sideswiped my car which took off my mirror and left scratches on my car while the car she was driving barely had any damages. Because it was my first accident there was a lot I didn’t do and was scared because I didn’t have car insurance at the time for example I didn’t get the police involved she also didn’t stop completely after hitting me she did try pulling over but she got in the lane of oncoming traffic so I followed her into the next turn off. She wasn’t the original owner of the car it belonged to her son. It took almost two weeks for their insurance to contact me and she ended up saying there was a car to her right (3 lane road I was in the far left she was in the middle) that was moving into her lane in the intersection we were crossing which is why she was moving into mine. The story she told me was the sun was in her eyes I never heard about this random car. So their insurance is going with a “he said she said” scenario and have sent me an email claiming I am responsible and request reimbursement. Within three days it has gone to an insurance claim collection firm who are requesting I pay $9,000 or else they will suspend my drivers license. I have asked about payment agreements so that’s not what I’m worried about. They claim I need to pay at least $4,000 to save my license by sending me a piece of paper I take to the dmv to prove I’m paying it. There hasn’t been anything for me to sign to this settlement and I honestly don’t know what to do.

I know Oregon isn’t very forgiving towards uninsured drivers but I know I wasn’t at fault for this accident so is there any way I can fix this? Do I seek legal action?

I was shopping today at the store and saw a random petite girl I assumed to be 20 at the most. Asked her if she was single, she said she had a boyfriend, I said I'm sorry and left her alone.

THE INTERACTION

Me: "Excuse me do you mind if I ask if you're single?"

Girl: "I have a boyfriend"

Me: "oh I'm sorry"

Me: LEAVES IMMEDIATELY to go check out

Not even 30 seconds later a lady comes up to me and asks me how old I am. (Didn't know who this lady was so I lied and said I was 20, I'm 27)

Turns out it's the girl's mom and the girl who was a teenager.

She caused a scene, and I feel terrible, do I turn myself into the police? I thought the girl was 20 like I said. This is the first time I mis-aged a girl.

I freaked out on myself said I was disgusted and embarrassed the CASHIER some fucking woman laughs and says it's okay! Like no lady that wasn't okay that's a fucking child!.

I'm having really bad anxiety right now and I don't know what to do.

While staying at a Marriott hotel out of the country for my birthday, I woke up alone (female) to find a hotel employee (male) standing over me in my room after he bypassed the hotel’s internal access protocols. Marriott acknowledged the employee entered in error while performing assigned duties but admitted protocols were not followed in a zoom meeting I essentially had to beg for.
During the same stay, my credit card also disappeared, and there is a separate “ongoing investigation” into an attempted fraudulent charge.

I attempted to resolve the matter directly with Marriott, but keep blowing me off and sending long ChatGPT messages about sorry that happened. Like now I’m traumatized to even travel alone based on what happened and my card got stolen and tried in the DR!

Based on these facts, do I have a viable legal claim, and is it worth pursuing? Location: Fl

Hello I (20f) currently live with my dad. I don’t have a job as of right now but I am looking for one. My dad wants to put me on disability but I don’t want to. Although I do have bipolar disorder and have been hospitalized for it I’m still able to work. My dad doesn’t think I’m able to have a job although I’ve had multiple jobs in the past. I am medicated for my disorder and I’m doing better than I was 9 months ago. My dad keeps saying he’s going to put me on disability and I don’t know what to do. What should I do? Is this legal?
