Should You Disclose Your ADHD to Your Employer?

Here I discuss various issues an adult with ADHD needs to consider before disclosing their diagnosis of ADHD to their employer, especially if they are planning to request accommodations in the workplace. I do not advise all employed adults with ADHD to make such a disclosure because some employers are not especially sensitive to or accommodating of adult ADHD. So think carefully before disclosing your diagnosis and then also think about the kinds of "reasonable" accommodations you wish to request. Information that should be in the documentation of your ADHD that you give to your employer is also discussed here.

You can find more information on this topic in my book, Taking Charge of Adult ADHD.
