Medicated; school, work, etc. doesn't need to know why you are taking the leave of absence. You just require a note from a md and your p-doc will not go into details in the note. Only you can make the decision if you want to disclose or not and I'm not telling you should or shouldn't, but I would suggest you seak to a t-doc about it, write out a pros and cons list of telling/not telling.

In the book that is in my signature there is a section on it.
