I watched your video "Dealing with Depression as a Geek" and it was good. However, I'm curious on your opinion with mental illness and employers. The spaghetti monster has blessed me with bipolar 2. Despite making good grades and keeping good relationships, it can still have some negative effects even on medication. When I graduate from school and get a new job, should I tell my employer that I have depression and on strong meds? Would you want your employees to be open about it? I'm not sure if it would effect me from advancing in a company if it's seen as a liability or because of the bad stigma around it. I'm going after a career in programming and would appreciate your view of this as an employer and uncertified psychiatrist.
