Should I tell my teachers about my mental conditions/disabilities?

[Deleted member 10699]

I suffer from ADD (to the point that it hurts my day to day life). For example, my mother tells me to do something; if someone else tells me to do something, I just forget about the first thing I was told because my brain can't focus on two orders at the same time.

This makes me to be vacant 90% of the time when someone's talking to me (autism plays a role in this, because I focus a lot in eye contact, posture, etc.), so I almost never pay attention to what the person's trying to say (unless they're friends. Then, I don't care that much about posture, eye contact, choosing the right words, etc.

I always've done worse than my classmates in school; getting lower grades, worse execution, etc. I needed tutoring through my entire life, because of the troubles I have with studying. Even with tutoring, I did worse than my classmates that didn't have tutoring. If I haven't received extra classes outside of school, I wouldn't have never gotten into college. Do you think that telling my teachers about my disability (33%) will make me to do better at school and to be less stressed and to be more happy?

No

Why not? My therapist and my parents recommend me to do it, because these conditions are hurting my grades a lot.

No. I was diagnosed as a kid, tried some pills, but the secondary effects were horrible. I was diagnosed with ADD and with autism. I need the psychiatrist to give me the pills.

What did you take all I’ve ever took was conserta and all I’ve got side affect wise was not being as hungry or headaches but now when I take it all I get is my arm pits sweat a lot and occasionally my throat is dry

I don't remember, since it was 11 years ago. The pills made me to develop eating disorders (eating at 5 instead that at 3), crying everyday, feeling tired, etc.
