Last year was an absolute nightmare, I was diagnosed with depression in Dec 12, I was prescribed Citalapram. This sort of made things better but then I started making mistakes at work, I realised that one of the side effects was "lack of concentration". I went back to the docs and she changed my AD's but they made me feel woozy. I was put on a "notice of improvement" at work which expired last October. My boss said he was pleased with my improvement and that I wasn't making any more mistakes than any other member of the team. In November I decided to come off the AD's.
Last week I made a stupid mistake which cost my employers 51.60, my boss then told me that one more mistake and I would be out of a job. I was in tears, until I got home and spoke to DP, I have only ever had the notice of improvement, no final written warning etc. so I don't think he can do that.
This of course has now made me paranoid of making more mistakes and I dread going into work, as I know that other team members are making worse mistakes than the one I made last week. I am starting to feel victimised.
I have tried ADs and talking therapy and not sure what to say to the Doctor today. I want to be referred for CBT but know that in my area the waiting list is huge.

You poor thing 
I have no practical advice but it might be worth posting in employment matters topic as I'm sure your boss cant do what he says he will legally.
