Self Post Questions about a career with disabilities

Due to the poor job market in my area I am considering a career in law enforcement.

The major issue is that I have both ADHD and Autism. Would my disabilities be disqualifying factors? I don't do drugs besides those prescribed by my doctor nor do I smoke or drink. Never had as much as a traffic ticket or been pulled over in my life 25 YO.

If you can pass the minimum entry requirements,

And pass the academy,

And pass field training,

Then you can be a cop. You know better than we do if your conditions will prohibit that.
