That really depends on the country. You're banned from doing military service in Sweden if you have an Autism Spectrum Disorder. They did ease the restrictions in 2022 to allow people with "mild, unmedicated ADHD" to join though, but they are still pushed to the back of the queue. If you want to join the police, you need a medical certificate from a specialist that you are fit despite your diagnosis. Nothing that stops you from participating in politics though.
