do you have a disability act in your area? I know in the us the ADA provides accommodations for mental health disorders and firing someone for one would be considered discrimination.
I second @Claire on speaking to HR. See if you could qualify for programs or protections for people with disabilities. Maybe look into a lawyer, but if you can't afford it I get it. Also see if there are any hotlines for disabled employees you could call
Much luck to you with your diagnosis, my mom was diagnosed with schizoaffective last year (well either that or bipolar I depending on who she saw) and it's a rough ass illness. Wouldn't wish it on anyone. My mom was fucking batshit, quit working, couldn't pay her phone bill without help, and refused to walk out the hallway (she climbed out the window because she thought her capped tooth would set off emf and wifi signals that would kill her). She's in a group home now.
