I had a conversation with my boss about potentially having PTSD.

I had a conversation with my boss about potentially having PTSD. I was encouraged by my workplace to pursue psychiatric care, and when I did the doctors told me I should be considering PTSD. She told upper management and I was almost fired on the spot.

Is this a normal reaction? I think it's relevant to mention I'm a woman who has never worked in the military.

Its a scary word, where PTSD=potential law suit. Some people with PTSD legit snap if triggered somehow. Keep it privately with doctors only, tell everyone else its just anxiety or therapy

If they had fired you, you could have sued for big bucks for discrimination.

You shouldn't have told your work. My coworker has MS and told two of our managers so they knew. You honestly wouldn't know unless she told you, and she keeps up with the rest of us. Since she told two of our managers it got to our GM a few weeks later and her hours have been cut a lot.

It's a liability thing. Since our GM knows she has MS and if anything happens to her while at work it can fall on our company. The same is happening to you. Your higher ups know and if something happens to you while at work they face liability. They can't fire you for PTSD since you could easily sue and win if it came to that so they are passive aggressively trying to get you to quit.

Don't quit, and don't give them anything else on you to get fired.

If you give them legitimate cause to fire you i.e. they think you are potentially a workplace hazard or you give evidence that you're going to have an episode, they can likely fire you with few repercussions. You're a dangerous head case is actually just cause to fire you.
