Contrary to the general belief, disabled workers (including those with mental issues) are often the best, most responsible workers they’ll ever have. And the supports they’ll need are usually very minor and inexpensive.

I prefer to think of myself as “handicapped”, not disabled. It’s not that I’m not “able” to do something; I just find it harder to do it.
