I also really feel the same way as you when ppl ask about our lives and job history, etc. I want to tell them, and feel frustrated that I can't.

I believe under the ADA you do not have to disclose your disability at work. I don't know much about it, so if someone else does, feel free to chime in. But it seems to me, that it is none of your supervisors business. Even if they were just asking to get to know you better, you weren't being rude in not disclosing. Everyone has something. You followed your gut and imo, you were professional.
You don't have to disclose your disability under the ADA unless you are seeking accommodations.
