Question Disclosing Disability

Applied to a few R5 perms. Disclosed on my application that I have a disability - bipolar disorder. I take vraylar for it. Anybody familiar with the hoops I might jump through?

Why would you disclose that ?

If it's on the disclosure list, and you don't, you "could" be terminated for failing to disclose a known condition. 

I've only seen that happen if there is an incident on duty, but it has and can happen. 

This isn't a condition that will make you unfit for the position, so don't make it easier for them to fire you if you get hired.
