Mentioning your disability on a CV or cover letter is entirely your choice. Morally, you're not being dishonest by not mentioning your disability sometimes we get really shy. A CV is a "sales" document and is used to sell you, as a candidate. It's only on an application form (which is a legal document) where you'll need to mention your disability, Though in many cases we often get rejected after knowing that we may have a physical disability or a neurological disability that's mostly related to Mental Health conditions. they see us as weaklings, which isn't the case. I hope that one day that narrative will change.
