I'm not sure I would. The resume is all about piquing interest in you and convincing them they have to meet you. It's sad to say, but honestly, a lot of companies would simply bypass your resume if they saw you have a condition that might cause them any sort of inconvenience. It's after they get to meet you and realize you're competent and know your stuff, and that you'll be a benefit to their company that they will realize it's no big deal.
If it's a bigger company, with a more professional HR department that has perhaps had experience dealing with the issues, perhaps they'll be easier to deal with.
Do you have a need for special accommodations for an interview? If so, then let them know when they call for an interview. Otherwise, I'm not sure I'd mention it until I got there for the interview. At that point, be up front and honest--tell them the diagnosis, and explain it doesn't hurt your performance. If you are nervous about it, bring it up when they call for the interview, and offer to send a copy of the letter.

I have temporal epilepsy and generalized anxiety disorder and I want to try coming out of the closet when searching for a new job.
My href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/disability">disability doesn't prevent me from doing my job well, but I feel that job href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/interviews">interviews are often an obstacle because I don't always look and speak the way that HR expects from a "perfect candidate".
