Simple question: Do you or don't you tell your employer about your mental health issues?

I have always erred on the side of telling, both because I prefer to be forthright in all matters and because it will score me sympathy points if I start screwing up.

However, I've been at this job a month and for some reason I am not so eager to fess up this time. Unfortunately, I needed to be inpatient weeks ago, and I don't think I'm going to be able to hold out much longer. I have a 3-day weekend coming up and that would seem to be an ideal time to start to get medicated, because right now I am not going to last another 7 days till I can see the stupid pdoc. I just don't know how to go about this, or if I should even bother, and just try to wait out the week I have left.

Ideas or suggestions welcome, please and thank you, as my mom says
