Really strongly thinking about applying to an online masters degree program in my current field.
What are the pros and cons of disclosing a PTSD diagnosis?
Do you actually have to be on disability for it to "count" in any way, or is merely having a documented diagnosis sufficient?
With employment I know disclosure is a very slippery slope, but I am assuming that academia is much more progressive and understanding (but you know what they say when you assume!)
So - is a diagnosed mental illness a factor in the grad school experience.
