<p>I agree with not mentioning it. I have autism and LDs, and it’s generally not noticeable… some people will sometimes note that I am just a little strange, but never enough that they think anything is different about me. If you just make an “announcement” about it and tell her for no reason, she isn’t going to know what to do with that information. I wouldn’t keep it a secret, if it comes up go ahead and mention it if you’re comfortable, but there’s no reason to just up and tell her just for the sake of telling her. She won’t know how to respond and it will probably make her uncomfortable. That’s my experience, anyway. </p>
<p>It’s really not something that’s any of her business. It doesn’t affect her or affect your rooming together. Like I said, if it comes up and you’re comfortable, there’s no reason to keep it secret. But it’s a weird thing to proclaim just for the hell of it. Like, OH BY THE WAY MY NATURAL HAIR COLOR IS BROWN---- and??? Just not necessary. If it’s something that affected the way you communicate it might be different, because that would affect your roommate… but this doesn’t.</p>
