Discrimination is a legally defined word, meaning conduct directly based on your race, sex, age, religion, ethnic origin, etc.
If instead, you are only complaining about unfair treatment and stress, it is not illegal. It might be a violation of Workers Comp retaliation rules; so consult your comp attorney.
If you think you have a valid provable discrimination claim, file with EEOC or DFEH and get experienced counsel. Contact me if so.

If your stress was work-related and you reported your injury to your employer, co-workers or sought treatment, you may have a worker's Compensation case. Your termination may also be covered under wrongful termination and/or discrimination under ADA (American Disability Act). Contact our office at 213.388.7070, if you need representation.
