However, most of the time people with severe mental health disorders are not a danger to others, unlike what pop culture tells us. It’s only ‘terrifying’ because of general lack of understanding and empathy which is what the post is about. We are capable of emotional regulation— jumping straight to ‘terrified’ and fear serves no one, including us, and shuts us off from a potentially great coworker (John Nash, anyone??) or community member.
I work for an organization that is supportive of employees. I managed someone with this diagnosis, who was a fabulous colleague for several years. Then stuff happened. We ended up in a situation where there were significant personal safety concerns. That’s not the situation here, but without the framework of support for both the employee and the people around them, these situations become untenable.
Why are you "certain" of this?
Whatever else can be said about all of this, this seems little more than stereotypical fear-mongering, and is exactly the sort of discrimination the post talks about.
It is scary, but, when you work in adult mental health, that is something you sign up for. Ideally it would be paid better.
