Want to use up Paid Medical Leave before quitting

Title says it all. I have just about had enough of my job and want to quit, but want to use up all of my benefits before doing so. I’m in a state where you can get 12 weeks paid medical leave for health problems if you meet certain employment conditions, which I meet. Anybody ever done this before? How reluctant are doctors to help with something like this? I have been suffering from pretty bad, work-related depression recently, and want to use that as grounds for the medical leave, and state that I need the time to myself to work out my issues, with multiple therapy appointments a week that would conflict with my work schedule.
